Americus Floating Bench Bracket is designed as a floating vanity bracket that delivers 750lbs of support strength on a single bracket, so a single support handles heavy seating loads in residential or commercial projects. The bracket is described as the strongest floating bench support available anywhere, which gives installers a margin of strength when benches will see frequent use. Its steel construction is suited for high-traffic environments and wet conditions, supporting shower benches, mudroom seats, or commercial seating where moisture and regular loading are expected. The bracket is built for indoor or outdoor use, so one model covers multiple areas on a job. A hidden yet strong appearance keeps visual focus on tile, stone, or wood finishes while the structural work happens behind the wall, which streamlines design choices without sacrificing load performance.
The welded vertical leg anchors into the base of the wall stud, rather than the subfloor, so bench loads are transferred directly into stud framing instead of relying on floor structure at the wall line. A 14 inch forward flange projects 14 inches beyond the drywall, with 14.25 inches total arm depth and 17.50 inches total bracket depth, giving a defined support footprint that aligns with common bench overhang dimensions. A separate horizontal brace installs between two studs to add lateral support, so side-to-side movement is reduced and overall weight capacity is boosted for everyday use. Together, the vertical leg and horizontal brace lock the Americus Floating Bench Bracket into the wall cavity, setting a fixed geometry that helps maintain bench alignment over time.
This Americus Floating Bench Bracket is part of the builders hardware category under bench support brackets, so it is intended as a structural component behind finished seating surfaces. As a floating vanity bracket, it suits shower benches where clear floor area must stay open below the seat, aiding drainage and cleaning access. In mudroom seats, the hidden support lets storage space remain unobstructed under the bench, while still tying loads back into the wall studs. For commercial seating, the bracket is built for high-traffic environments, so frequent occupants can use the same bench footprint without overloading the support structure. Indoor and outdoor suitability means the same bracket style can back up benches in bathrooms, locker rooms, covered entries, or similar locations that align with the stated use conditions.
The Americus Floating Bench Bracket uses a two-piece installation system, combining a welded vertical leg with forward flange and a horizontal brace between studs, so installers have a defined sequence to tie the bracket into framing. Anchoring into the base of the wall stud rather than the subfloor focuses connection points into known structural members, which simplifies locating solid backing during rough-in. The forward flange extending 14 inches beyond the drywall sets a consistent projection for bench framing, so multiple brackets align to the same depth for straight, even seating edges. Material thickness of 14 gauge tube provides a substantial wall section for the welded elements, supporting the stated 750lbs single-bracket capacity. The design is described as offering a hidden but strong appeal, so once walls are closed and finishes applied, the structural work remains concealed while preserving the engineered load path behind the surface.
