Question 1

what color are they?

Accepted Answer

The colour is hard to describe. They’re dark but no black and being cast iron they have a metallic look. The images are a pretty close representation and they are finished to look like old cast iron. I hope this helps a little.

Question 2

What sort of weight are these brackets designed for? As I am planning on mounting a 45kg sleeper on my fireplace.

Accepted Answer

They are very heavy-duty. The iron is thick - they aren't flimsy. I think the brackets will be fine, but the way you anchor them into the wall is super important. They come with good sized wood screws, but if you're not able to sink all of them deep enough into solid wood behind drywall or plaster, it might not hold under that kind of weight. They are beautiful! If I were you, I'd find out how to mount them to do what you want them to do. Consulting with a fasteners pro would be wise... someone at a local hardware shop, or in the home building & renovating trade. Sorry if my terminology is off for Britain - I'm in the USA. Yes, they were worth every penny and the extra shipping cost. Even prettier than the photos. Nothing like this is available here in small sizes.

Question 3

Can you use these brackets on plasterboard walls?

Accepted Answer

Yes you can as long as you use platerboard fixings (wall plugs and screws heavy duty for plasterboard).

Question 4

does it require drilling deep holes in the wall?  I am renting and hesitant to make huge holes in the walls.

Accepted Answer

It all depends.....What is the weight you will be putting on the shelf? Is the wall solid (brick or block) or is it plasterboard on a timber frame? Mostly on a solid wall surface it will require three holes per bracket drilled about 5 cm deep (2" inches) x 7mm diameter and filled with Plasplug type inserts to take                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        50 x 3 mm screws.  Before drilling remember there may be pipes or cables in the wall!  These holes will be quite easy to fill in should you decide to move on but best advice is to talk to your landlord and ask permission or at least find out what their attitude is.
