How It Compares
Compared With Light gauge corner braces
These carry a bolt rather than a screw and hold a structural connection rather than a furniture joint.
Use Guide
- Fit to the outside of the corner where the connection is structural and to the inside where it must not be seen.
- Drill a 3/32 inch pilot hole before driving wood screws on the smaller sizes.
