Application Guide
Garage folding workbench hardware.
A fold-down garage workbench needs bracket hardware that supports the surface while open and stores flat when the workspace is not in use. COREAX folding shelf brackets are built for shelves, benches, utility tops, and compact work surfaces.
Application fit
Use folding shelf brackets when the work surface should fold down after use. Real strength depends on bracket size, shelf depth, bracket spacing, wall backing, fasteners, and the way weight is placed on the bench.
What to check
Wall structureMount into studs, blocking, masonry, or reinforced backing instead of relying on unsupported drywall.
Shelf depthMatch bracket size to the worktop depth so the front edge is supported without blocking the release mechanism.
Load placementLoads at the outer edge create more leverage than loads near the wall.
Bracket countLong benches may need more than two brackets depending on span, board stiffness, and work load.
Folded clearanceCheck nearby cabinets, tools, doors, and parked vehicles before final placement.
Fastener choiceUse fasteners matched to the wall material and expected work load.
Recommended COREAX path
Use COREAX folding shelf brackets for garage fold-down benches, laundry worktops, utility shelves, and compact workshop surfaces.

- Locate studs or install suitable backing before mounting.
- Choose bracket length based on shelf depth and release access.
- Use a stiff enough worktop for the span between brackets.
- Check folded clearance before final screw placement.
- Test movement and level before adding full work load.
