We currently offer the following many styles of Home exterior Victorian Gingerbread porch brackets. All are hand made here in the shop since 1997
MANUFACTURED WOOD BRACKETS: Full 1 inch thick. Designed to be painted.
These are strong clean brackets that will not warp or lose their shape over the years. As a base coat of primer is so important, I apply each one with a light coat of primer and ship to you ready to accept your custom house paint.
This is a really fun project and a great way to dress up your front or back porch. .....Yes we do custom sizing....call

- BRACKET INSTALLATION 101-
Step one: - The brackets come sealed and with just a coat of primer. By painting the pieces in your contrasting house colors and trim, you achieve a clean nice look. First measure the porch or corner where you want to put a bracket. I always check to make sure the brackets are at a 90 degree angle before they leave. You may find your house corner has shifted over time. Not to worry as any wood putty will fill in any empty spaces.
Step Two: - Select from the list above the design and size that best fits with your plans and remember the brackets can be put up in either direction.
Step Three: - When they arrive, paint and allow to dry overnight. I always put on a coat of primer here so they are very easy for you to paint. Use your exterior house paint. Latex is fine. ALL BRACKETS ARE SHIPPED PRIMED AND READY TO PAINT.
Step Four: - Paint again as needed for second color.
Step Five: - Install. DO NOT TAKE YOUR ELECTRIC DRILL AND START PUTTING IN SCREWS. If you want to use screws you first have to drill pilot holes slightly larger than the nail or screw you wish to use. This way the wood will not split and will expand and contract with your weather conditions. I prefer to use a wood glue and tape them in place overnight. In the morning remove the tape. Pre-drilling a pilot hole the same size as your screw or nail is important.
