The top of your bracket should not extend over your support
substructure but should meet ush with the top. You will want to
use a level to determine the positioning of the top of the bracket
to the top of your substructure. When manufacturing the Torii
Countertop Supports we attempt to hit the angle break at 90
degrees 100% of the time. However, we may be slightly off of
that mark. If this is the case with your bracket, you should use
shims in your installation to bring the bracket to level. Shims can
be placed directly behind the down ange or you may need to
slightly plane the support stud to allow for the bracket to sit ush
and level.
Once all the brackets are in place, you will want to wipe them
down to get rid of any handprints or other debris. Just before
installation of you counter you need to apply adhesive or
silicone to the top of the bracket to adhere it to the counter.
Once the counter is in place, you can caulk around the edge of
the brackets if you choose. This will give greater adherence to
the countertop and cover any gap between the brackets
and counter.
Final step is to enjoy your work and your new kitchen counter.
