Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a PU corbel?
A: A PU corbel is a polyurethane decorative bracket used beneath shelves, mantels, kitchen counters, or ceiling beams. PU corbels replicate carved wood or plaster forms at one-quarter the weight and are immune to moisture, insects, and rot.
Q: Are PU corbels load-bearing?
A: Standard decorative PU corbels are not structural — they are designed to conceal a steel bracket or to provide a finished look under a load-bearing shelf or beam. For applications that require actual load support, embed a hidden steel L-bracket inside the PU corbel during installation; the corbel then becomes a decorative cover for the structural element.
Q: How do you install Why repeat orders of custom corbels for?
A: Pre-drill mounting holes in the wall substrate (or studs at 16-inch centers). Apply construction adhesive to the back of Why repeat orders of custom corbels for, position it under the shelf or beam, and drive two or three #8 × 2.5-inch wood screws through the corbel into the wall. Spackle the screw heads, sand smooth, and paint to match the surrounding trim.
Q: Can PU corbels be used outdoors?
A: Use exterior-grade PU corbels with UV-inhibited factory primer for covered outdoor applications such as porches, porte-cochères, and entryways. Direct sun exposure over many years may eventually yellow or chalk the surface; repaint every 5–7 years with an exterior-grade acrylic paint to refresh the finish.
