The Inbrackets 12 Inch T and K Wall Brackets are designed for homeowners and professional installers looking for a robust mounting solution for aerial or satellite masts. These brackets provide exceptional stability for outdoor equipment due to their heavy-duty steel construction and fully welded joints, ensuring they remain secure even in challenging weather conditions. While these brackets are highly versatile for wall or gable end mounting, users should ensure their wall surface is structurally sound enough to support the weight of the mast and dish or antenna prior to installation.

Yes, you can spray paint them, but ensure you use a metal primer and high-quality exterior-grade paint to maintain corrosion resistance.
They are compatible with most standard aerial and satellite masts, but please verify your mast diameter against the included V-bolt specifications before installation.
These are primarily designed for masonry. If mounting to timber, you must use appropriate lag bolts rather than the included masonry fixings and ensure the timber structure can bear the load.
The brackets provide a 12-inch (approx. 30cm) standoff from the wall.
You will need a masonry drill, a hammer drill, a spirit level, and a wrench set to tighten the bolts.
Ensure the V-bolts are centered on the mast and tightened evenly. If the mast is smaller than the V-bolt capacity, use a rubber shim.
Verify that the wall fixings are properly tightened and that the pilot holes were not drilled too wide for the masonry plugs.
Installation requires a masonry drill and appropriate wall fixings depending on the material (brick, concrete, or stone). First, align the T and K sections on the mounting surface, ensuring they are plumb using a spirit level. Secure the brackets to the wall, then insert the mast through the brackets, tightening the V-bolts evenly to lock the mast in place.
Regarding care, although the powder coating is weather-resistant, it is a good practice to inspect the brackets annually for signs of paint flaking or deep scratches. If the finish is damaged, touch it up with an outdoor-grade metal paint to prevent localized corrosion.
