Choosing Bracket Depth: 4" Queen vs 5" King
- Deck bracket depth varies depending on the type of brick used. If using a commonly sized brick commonly termed "Queen" brick in the construction industry, the most popular deck ledger bracket is the Queen sized deck ledger bracket that has a 4" depth spacing. 4" Queen brackets can also be used for "modular" sized brick as well as stone applications.
- Custom sizes (used on many commercial applications or larger decks) will need a larger depth on a ledger support bracket. 5" Depth "King" Brackets are the variation typically used for these.
Standard vs. Splice

DECK LEDGER SPLICE |
Choosing Standard vs Splice:
- Standard brackets of either depth are used at the inside deck corner and placed along the deck ledger.
- Splice variations are designed to be placed throughout longer decks. Splice brackets secure joining two deck ledger boards when one board isn't long enough to span your deck design.
- Hardware will change from a standard bracket to a splice bracket. For most residential applications a queen bracket (H1-GQ) uses Quantity (2) 5/8 x 9"Bolts (2) 5/8" Nuts (4) 5/8" Washers.
- Queen Splice Bracket (H1-GQS) uses (4) 5/8 x 9"BoltsBolts (4) 5/8" Nuts (8) 5/8" Washers.
