Fold-Down Support Brackets

Heavy-Duty Folding Shelf Brackets
- Heavy Duty Support for Fold-Down Surfaces:These heavy duty folding shelf brackets support up to 300 lb per pair when properly installed, helping create a sturdy wall-mounted shelf, folding table, laundry station, or garage work surface. Actual load capacity depends on wall type, screws, anchors, tabletop material, and installation quality.
- Easy-Release Flat Tab & 90 Degree Locking Design:The upgraded flat release tab is wider and easier to press, making it simple to unlock and fold the surface down when not in use. The folding brackets lock in the open position to help support a stable work surface.
- Black Powder-Coated Cold-Rolled Steel & Stainless Options:Black brackets are made from cold-rolled steel with a powder-coated finish to help resist scratches, everyday wear, and light oxidation. Stainless steel options are available for RVs, marine use, covered utility areas, garages, workshops, and indoor spaces.
- Hardware Included, Board Not Included:Each pack includes 2 folding shelf brackets, 12 M4 flat-head self-tapping screws, and 6 expansion bolts. Shelf board, tabletop, or wood panel is not included, so you can choose the board size, thickness, and finish that best fits your project.
- Space-Saving Wall Mount Solution:Ideal for laundry folding tables, garage workbench extensions, RV counters, compact kitchen surfaces, sheds, and covered outdoor utility shelves. For best support, mount into wall studs, solid wood, concrete, or another suitable load-bearing surface; avoid relying only on drywall anchors for heavy loads.

Install & support
Questions that change the setup.
What makes the flat tab different?
The wider tab gives your finger more surface area, so release pressure feels less sharp than a small straight latch.
Can I mount it directly to drywall?
No. For heavy loads, mount into wall studs or a properly reinforced backing plate with suitable fasteners. Drywall alone is not a load-bearing surface.

Flat-tab releaseThe wide release tab is easier to find under the shelf and spreads finger pressure better than a narrow latch.
Load pathThe 300 lb pair rating depends on studs or reinforced backing, shelf material, fasteners, and load distribution.

Great for adding shelves!
I wanted to add some shelves in my bathroom above the toilet, and next to the shower. These brackets are great for that, since they will fold down and out of the way should the plumbing ever need to be worked on. They're solid, and latch solidly, I don't need the full 300 pound capacity of the shelves, but it's nice to know my shelf will stay up if my cat decides it's a great place for a nap. The mounting couldn't be easier, just find the stud, and screw directly into the stud through the two mounting holes in the back part of the bracket. For the shelf itself there are 3 mounting holes to firmly connect the shelf to the bracket. It looks great once installed, a nice crisp black bracket, and I can put it down if I need it to be out of the way. You could also notch the drywall and sink these into the wall giving it an even smaller footprint when folded down. Very happy with these, they look great and function amazingly.
