Our Center Mount Bracket, also known as a Center Levered Support, is designed to support countertop overhangs on two sides of a knee or pony wall.
Customers also use this support bracket in commercial applications including bars with offset overhangs, or for supporting vanities where the bathroom layout is mirrored on the other side of the wall.
Vertical steel flanges (straddle) provide additional stability and can be re-positioned to fit your needs such as a 2x6 wall, etc...
You will want to space your brackets 16" - 24" apart, this will allow for maximum support. We recommend starting your brackets anywhere from 2" to 6" from each end of your supporting surface.
Choose a bracket size that will support at least 2/3 of the supporting surface. In most cases, we recommend only having a 2-6" overhang to provide sufficient support for your project.
Example Bracket Size for Project – Let’s say you want to support a 40” wide countertop on your knee or pony wall. You would want to support that with a bracket measuring 28" to 36". This gives you an acceptable amount of overhang past the end of your bracket which is recommended to be 2-6 inches.
