Choose the Right Angle Bracket for Your Load Requirements
Different angle brackets and framing angles are designed to handle varying levels of shear, uplift, and lateral forces. Choosing the proper load-rated angle bracket or corner brace helps ensure a code-compliant connection in structural framing.
-
Find the Right Size and Connection Type for Framing An
Framing angles and metal angle brackets are available in a variety of sizes, shapes, and hole patterns to fit specific wood framing connections. The correct angle hardware ensures proper alignment between joists, studs, beams, and plates.
-
Select the Right Finish for Your Angle Bracket Environment
Where the angle bracket or corner brace will be installed plays a major role in selecting the proper finish. Interior projects may only require standard galvanized angle brackets, while exterior or treated lumber applications may require higher corrosion protection.
