FAQs
Does this bracket include screws?
No, the mounting hardware is not included as different wall types require different screws and wall plugs.
Can this be used indoors?
Yes, its elegant design makes it suitable for indoor wall decor such as hanging plants or lanterns.
What is the finish made of?
It is finished in a durable, weather-resistant black coating designed for outdoor longevity.
Is the bracket strong enough for large hanging baskets?
Yes, the robust metal construction is designed to support the weight of standard, well-watered hanging baskets.
How do I maintain the finish?
Wipe it down occasionally to remove debris and touch up any paint scratches with outdoor metal paint to prevent rust.
Troubleshooting
Bracket feels loose after installation
Check that you have used the correct wall plugs for your wall type (e.g., masonry plugs for brick) and ensure the screws are fully tightened.
Surface rust appearing on the bracket
Gently sand the affected area and apply a small amount of outdoor-rated black enamel paint to seal the metal.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Installation is straightforward. Hold the bracket against your chosen surface, mark the pre-drilled holes, and use a drill to create pilot holes. Use appropriate wall plugs and screws depending on whether you are mounting into brick, wood, or stone.
Compatibility: The bracket is universally styled, making it compatible with most garden themes. Ensure the weight of your chosen item does not exceed standard hanging basket limits for safety.
Care: Periodically check that the mounting screws remain tight, especially after high winds. Clean the bracket with a damp cloth and mild soap if dirt accumulates, and inspect for any paint chips that might expose the metal; a quick touch-up with outdoor metal paint will prevent rust and prolong the life of the finish.
