With endless design possibilities iron corbels are an attractive alternative to wood corbels. They also provide substantially more countertop support for granite, natural stone and all other countertop materials. Using metal gives us the opportunity to build a wider range of custom designs, sizes & styles for you as well. Our corbels are engineered to support Granite, Marble, Quartz, Silestone, Corian, and even Concrete kitchen countertop overhangs.
These iron corbels are also used to provide decorative support for fireplace mantels, bars, wall tables and more. If you do not find a style or size you need, please let us know. We can do custom work and modify some of the bracket styles you see below.
Countertop corbels are the quiet workhorses that keep a stone slab from sagging when everyone leans in to chat. We cut ours from solid steel plate, grind the edges smooth, then bend and weld until the shape feels right in the hand. Metal corbels like these slip under granite or quartz overhangs without drawing a crowd, matte black is timeless and quite, while the hand brushed finishes show that little extra attention to detail.
Wood can swell, split, or get chewed by the dog, steel corbels just hold steady. That extra stiffness means fewer brackets, wider seating, and simpler layouts for counters twelve inches deep or more. Every bracket is drilled and countersunk for heavy duty #12 wood screws. load tested in a rig that tries its best to crush them, so we stamp the rating with room to spare. Call them heavy duty metal corbels if you like, the point is they give reliable corbel support for marble, concrete, even that reclaimed elm bartop you picked up.
Beyond kitchens these brackets prop up fireplace mantels, banquette tables, wall-hung desks, whatever needs a boost. If the catalog shapes feel close but not perfect, send a sketch on a napkin, we can tweak the curve, stretch the back plate, or punch an extra hole. Hand built in small batches here in the States, shipped with a little powder-coat dust hiding in the corners.

Measure the part of the slab that sticks out past your cabinets. A good rule is the corbel’s horizontal arm should cover at least two-thirds of that distance, so a 12-inch overhang gets an 8-inch arm, deeper stone wants a full one-to-one. Next, peek at thickness: heavier granite or concrete likes a wider back plate. Our heavy duty metal corbels start at 1.5-inch wide, all the way up to 4" wide on select models. Make sure your corbels have adequate 2x12 backing on cabinet bases, or mount them to a wall stud.
If you can run a level, drill pilot holes, and lift forty pounds without cursing too much, you can handle countertop corbels. The trick is planning before the stone shows up. Mark mounting locations or stud centers, dry-fit the steel corbels, and screw them in place flush with cabinet tops so your countertop sits flush. Check level both ways, shim if the wall is wavy, then call the fabricator. For retrofits, you should pull the stone, but it is possible to mount the corbels after a countertop has been installed it will just be a little more difficult.
The raw iron lines ships with a light oil that darkens over time, think old cast-iron skillet. If water spots and rusty patina worry you, pick the powder-coated finish, the paint bakes hard enough to shrug off kitchen steam. Wipe it once in a while with dish soap, skip abrasive pads, and the finish should look the same when the kids leave for college.
