Description
The CounterBalance concealed bracket, black, is a structural support bracket built for floating countertop surfaces. It mounts to load-bearing studs behind the drywall so the finished counter or bar top reads as a clean floating surface with no visible hardware underneath. This 2 in by 12 in size supports a floating span up to 6 in past the bracket’s own length, which covers most kitchen and bar overhangs without extra blocking.
Where the CounterBalance Concealed Bracket Black Gets Used
Cabinet shops and countertop fabricators install this bracket on new construction where the drywall goes up after the bracket is set, since the mounting method depends on fastening to the stud before the wall surface is finished. It shows up on kitchen islands, bar tops, and any countertop overhang that needs to look unsupported from the front and below. The concealed profile is also available in white, gray, and almond for jobs where the bracket color needs to match trim or drywall paint.
Installing the CounterBalance Concealed Bracket Black
Set the bracket against the load-bearing stud before drywall goes up, since the design relies on a solid backing surface for the load path. If the drywall is already installed on your job, the Hybrid Bracket is the better fit since it does not require access behind the wall. For a less bulky footprint than this 2 in bracket, the 1 in Concealed Bracket covers lighter loads. Check the load limit reference in the product download area before finalizing bracket spacing on a long run.
