The Offset Bracket is used when there is a gutterline or roof ridge line that you need to go around. The vertical branded end is attached to the brickwork/wood and a cat fence bracket is attached to the other vertical section. The bracket has multiple holes down its length so mesh can be attached via cable ties.
Whats included?
- 1x Offset Bracket which is made of Galvanised Steel and is Powder Coated Black
- 2x Nuts and Bolts
- 1x Polyurethane epoxy resin branding Sticker- UV and scratch resistant
To provide further stability consider buying some blackened steel wire, a zip clip, a loop clamp and a vine eye bolt. Use these to attach the top of the bracket to the wall or wooden surface. Tighten the wire to provide stability.
Offset Bracket
When installing around a gutter or ridge line, firstly attach the standard bracket to the offset bracket using the nuts and bolts provided. You want to install the bracket so that the first bend of the standard bracket is 2m from the ground. The first bend is the bend between the vertical 20cm section and the 70cm section.
If mounting onto wood, simply screw the offset bracket to the wood using 2-3 screws. If mounting onto brick, use a marker pen (through the holes) to mark on the wall where you need to drill. Using a 6mm drill bit create holes where you marked. Plug the holes using red wall plugs. Then screw the bracket to the wall.
If the bracket is too flexible, consider buying some blackened steel wire, a zip clip, a loop clamp and a vine eye bolt. Use these to attach the top of the bracket to the wall or wooden surface. Tighten the wire to provide stability.
