Folding Shelf Brackets 18 Inch, Heavy Duty Stainless Steel Collapsible L Angle Wall Mounted Brackets, DIY Shelves for Table Work Bench Max Load 360lb, Pack of 2 with Install Screws

My project was to build a folding table top next to my utility sink for grooming my dogs. I bought these for the project but because I didn't think I would have space on the back side to squeeze the release lever, I returned them I made a bi-fold panel system to hold up the table, which turned out weak, cumbersome and unstable. In the process of making it - all from scratch and with no pattern other than a design in my head - the table top got cut down smaller which meant that I would be able to easily reach over the table to press the release. So I Reordered these brackets and was happy when they arrived a day earlier than predicted. Installing the brackets took me some time however because I ran into a few issues. I'll preface this explanation by saying that I had a handyman build the table top and the foundation structure attached to the side of my utility sink. With that in place I figured I, a diy-type senior woman, could do the rest. This is the main problem I ran into: First I installed the brackets to the plywood panel attached to the side of the sink, making sure they were vertically level. All four holes in the bracket were easy to access. Next I placee the table top on the brackets and screwed UP into the table top. That alone was kinda hard but once I resorted to pre-drilling, it was easier. BUT, when I tested folding the table down, they did not fold into themselves as expected and it took me 4 tries to get this right - both changing the position of the longer arms and then finally changing the position of the shorter arm at the side panel. There isn't any play in how the brackets fold into themselves so it had to be perfect or else the table would not fold all the way down flat against the sink. Finally, I thought it was strange that one of the four screw holes for the long arm of the bracket - the part that attaches to the table top - is actually hidden behind the release mechanism and no positioning of the bracket arm allowed me to put a screw in that hole. Oh well, I got three screws in and it's sturdy enough. The end result is perfect - sturdy, stable, super simple to operate and exactly what I wanted. I'm uploading pictures to show my final product - I'm pretty proud of myself :-)

These have worked perfect for us. Strong and easy to use and install.

We love these brackets. My only issue is that they do not fold up flush with the wall. They stick out at the bottom. Hence the 4 stars.

So, been looking for quality shelf brackets for quite some time. I already purchased 3 other brands and they all had issues with quality, secure, sturdy and look/craftsmanship. Someone else recommend this particular bracket and am absolutely in luv with this product/brand. Made with heavy duty stainless steel that is of high quality and looks amazing. The bonus feature is the L Angle wall mount that is collapsible. I have a set in my work bench and another one in my patio and the ability to lock and unlock is a great feature. I plan to buy another set for my office. The product is heavy duty and can hold an enormous amount of weight. It was very easy to install - all parts needed were included. The brackets are very very easy to fold and provide any extra space you may need and just as easy to use & lock into place. I highly recommend!!!

I have a 40yo sailboat and things are always falling apart. The most recent thing were the hinges securing the fold-down table in the salon that was secured to the centerpiece by a bunch of piano hinges. In terms of weight support, these weren't the best, but it was very sturdy regarding lateral movement (which is the thing you need to worry about the most on a sailboat). I was concerned that this new replacement would end up getting ripped out of the support with a little wiggling, but I decided it was worth trying out. I'm glad I did. It's rock-solid. I was very impressed with how well it fit, how easy it was to install, and how much leg room I ended up gaining. Plus it's stainless steel, which is really important on a sailboat. It exceeded my expectations in all areas. Very pleased with this purchase.

These fold easily, and seem sturdy.

Used 6 of them for a shelf in my 20 foot enclosed trailer. Gets stuff off the floor and great for storing ladders. I built the shelf but wanted the option of using the trailer with full width when needed. When folded down doesn’t go totally flat against wall because I wasn’t careful enough with aligning them all. Still the perfect brackets for what I wanted to do.

This is a horrible flimsy weak piece of garbage that can barely support its own weight, let alone the claimed 500lb. It’s made of some sort of very thin aluminum. It comes with horrible screws that must be made of popsicles ‘cause they immediately get stripped and become unusable. The design is so bad that Installing all screws is almost impossible because they are extremely hard to reach without extensions and such. Outlandish quality and strengths claims for a horrible horrible product.
