What are the dimensions of this corner plate?

The dimensions are 75mm x 75mm x 16mm.

Can these corner plates be used outdoors?

What kind of tools do I need to install these?

Troubleshooting

Plate does not sit flush against the wood.

Ensure the timber surfaces are clean, flat, and free from obstructions. Check that the corner is square before positioning the plate.

Fasteners are not holding securely.

Ensure you are using the correct type and size of fasteners for the timber. Pre-drilling pilot holes might be necessary for harder woods or to prevent splitting.

Signs of rust appearing on the plate.

This can occur with prolonged exposure to moisture. Clean the affected area and consider applying a protective metal paint or sealant, especially for outdoor applications.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  2. Using appropriate screws or nails (not included), secure the plate through the pre-drilled holes or marked points.
  3. For optimal strength, use multiple fasteners across all holes of the plate.

Compatibility:
