At Biltema, you’ll find a range of angle brackets suited for both small tasks and more demanding assembly work. The selection includes various sizes and types, depending on the job's requirements.
Among the available models of angle brackets are classic formats, such as 50 x 50 x 35 mm, and larger options, such as 105 x 105 x 90 mm, which are used when more surface contact or added strength is required. For more flexible applications, adjustable angle brackets are available that can be set to various angles, depending on the structure.
If you need a more versatile solution, the universal bracket covers a wide range of mounting needs. There are also grooved angle brackets designed for better grip and alignment in certain constructions. For joint reinforcement or joining panels, connection brackets provide a simple and effective solution.
Angle brackets are a practical choice for repairs and assembly
Angle brackets are often used when two surfaces need to meet at a fixed angle and stay in place. They are suitable for tasks that involve building, reinforcing, or repairing wooden and metal structures. Whether you’re fixing a broken corner, adding support to a shelf, or assembling a basic frame, an angle bracket helps maintain the shape and stability of the construction.
Angle brackets are commonly found in both indoor and outdoor settings, from garages and sheds to utility rooms and living spaces. In furniture repairs, they can be used to support loose joints or provide extra stability under tables, benches, or cabinets. In storage solutions, they help hold shelves in place or keep structural elements aligned.
All angle brackets come with pre-drilled holes, making installation more manageable. They work with standard screws and can be mounted with basic tools. Some models are designed for visible installation, while others are more discreet, depending on the project's needs.
Choosing an angle bracket depends on the materials you’re working with and the weight or pressure the joint needs to handle. In many cases, it’s a small component that plays a key role in maintaining strength and alignment over time.
Angle brackets for wood and metal
Angle brackets can be used across a variety of materials, depending on the task at hand. In woodworking, they are often used to support joints, connect panels, or add reinforcement to corners and edges, for example, with a corner bracket. Angle brackets can be mounted on both softwood and hardwood, and are suitable for use in furniture, shelving, and basic structural repairs.
For home projects involving metal, angle brackets can be used to support where two metal parts meet, such as in light frames, shelving units, or garden structures. They’re also useful when joining metal to wood, acting as a stable connector between different materials in mixed constructions.
The key is to choose angle brackets that match the load and the environment. Galvanised steel or coated models are recommended for use in damp spaces or outdoors.
Angle bracket in everyday projects
Angle brackets are a common solution in many day-to-day building and repair tasks. They’re used when parts need to be held in place, reinforced, or connected at a fixed angle. Angle brackets' function is often simple, but they contribute to the overall stability of the structure.
In the home, angle brackets can be used to support shelves, mount small pieces of furniture, or reinforce storage units. They’re also helpful when reinforcing loose chair legs, table corners, or cabinet frames. Outdoors, angle brackets may be installed to secure elements in garden structures, gates, or tool sheds.
For DIY tasks, a basic angle bracket often makes the difference between a stable result and one that shifts over time. Once mounted, the bracket remains largely out of sight but plays a key role in keeping the construction together.
Ankle brackets are easy to install
Angle brackets are designed to be easy to work with, even for smaller repairs or home projects. Angle brackets have pre-drilled holes that make it easier to align and fasten them correctly. They can be installed using basic tools such as a screwdriver or drill, and work with standard wood screws or bolts depending on the surface.
No specialist tools are required, and the installation process is straightforward for both experienced users and those with limited DIY experience.
Matching screws and tools for your angle brackets
To ensure a stable and long-lasting installation, it’s important to use the right type of screws or bolts with your angle brackets. At Biltema, you’ll find a range of building brackets for everyday projects and a wide selection of matching fasteners suitable for both wood and metal surfaces, depending on the bracket and application.
As mentioned, angle brackets come with pre-drilled holes, making them compatible with standard wood screws, countersunk screws, or bolts. For heavier tasks or outdoor use, galvanised steel fasteners are recommended to help prevent rust and maintain grip over time.
Biltema also offers a range of hand tools and accessory sets for assembly, including screwdrivers, drills, bits, and complete installation kits. These are suited for both small repairs and larger building projects
