Review on Hangman APT-18 Electrical Distribution Products 🔌 - 18 Inch, 1 Unit by Hangman Products by Dawn Wilson

French planks are great because they spread the load across the width of the plank rather than concentrating on a single attachment point. This bar is better than others because the weight sits in a J-channel on the brace, much like a coat hook. In other designs, the weight rests on the strut more like a spatula, effectively pushing the two pieces apart. Another nice feature of this brace is the reduced height due to the J-channel design. This isn't usually a problem, but I use it to hang an antique shelf that has a standard board showing through. The included levels are also a great feature.
