The Sheppard Brackets Floating Mantel Bracket can be installed right over the drywall and does NOT require that the drywall be removed. With our MultiMount system and using the Studlock key design that we created and manufacture, your beautiful new mantel can be safely, securely, and beautifully mounted with confidence that it will stay in place for the duration of the lifetime of your home.  Sheppard Brackets Floating Mantel Brackets will be able to be drilled into every stud or cross beam that is behind the mantel and will not need to be moved or shifted left or right to line up with any pre-drilled holes.  You will also not need to add more difficult-to-drill holes through our 3/16” thick solid still backplates.

Floating Mantel Bracket Router Templates

To ensure the true flush mount mantel, and to increase, even further, the strength of the brackets, we also recommend that you use our specially-designed router templates to create a mortise into which the brackets will slide and thus become a true, flush-mount floating mantel with no gap between mantel and wall.
