Overhang Support

When extending your peninsula or island more than 12" past the cabinet, it will be necessary to support the overhang.

Angled front view of Corbel support

12 - 15" overhangs require some underlying support. Corbels or brackets, usually made of wood or metal, need to be half as long as the overhang. Shown is a wood corbel.

Corbel support extended to the floor

Overhangs of 15" or more require support to the floor. Shown here are corbels that support the top by distributing the weight to the floor.
