Installation Guide and Warranty Information
Multiple Applications The Victory Bracket is a multi-functional bracket designed to offer superior support for countertops, floating vanities, floating tables, shower benches, and more. The unique ribbed design of the Victory Bracket creates strength beyond that of bulkier, more expensive brackets, while still providing low-profile support.

The spacing between brackets can be determined using the formula below: The Victory Bracket is designed to support overhangs between 8″ and 24″. The wall thickness must be between ¾″ and 4″. If necessary, attach plywood to inside of the cabinet wall to meet the minimum thickness requirement.
