Brackets & Braces

A well-supported shelf, a square timber joint, and a rigid frame all have one thing in common - the right bracket or brace holding them in place. At the DIY Hardware Store, our brackets and braces range covers the full spectrum of angle brackets, mending plates, corner braces, and structural connectors used in shelving, joinery, furniture making, and general construction.

Angle brackets are the most fundamental connector in DIY - simple L-shaped plates that reinforce a 90-degree joint between two pieces of timber or board. They appear in shelf supports, stud wall framing, furniture assembly, and garden structures. Corner braces do similar work in flat applications, reinforcing the corners of frames and panels. Mending plates provide a straight-line reinforce across a weakened or repaired joint.

Beyond these basics, the range extends into heavier structural brackets for post-and-beam connections, joist hangers, and timber framing connectors that are specified in building work. Whether you're putting up a simple shelf or framing a timber outbuilding, the DIY Hardware Store has the right bracket in the right size and finish.
