Quad-Lock Metal Brackets

The corner & angle brackets make the assembly of 90° corners and angles simple, quick, and secure.

Quad-Lock CornerCorner Brackets

Quad-Lock corner brackets allow for the quick and secure assembly of 90 degree corners and eliminate the need for any external corner bracing. They come in two configurations: the Inside Corner Bracket and the Outside Corner Bracket.

  • Inside Corner Brackets are used on every row of the inside panels, with the exception of the top row, for 90 degree corners and on the inside corners of T-walls.
  • Outside Corner Brackets are used on every row of the outside corner panels, again with the exception of the top row, and as reinforcement for the back wall of T-walls.

Corner brackets are made of flat 24-gauge galvanized steel and are designed to fit over Quad-Lock panels placed at 90° to one another. The brackets have holes that match the panels' foam interlock knobs, and slots that allow the ties and tie flanges to be inserted once the bracket has been placed over the panels.

When installed properly, the corner brackets combined with the ties and tie flanges alone will absorb the forces of the poured concrete at the recommended slump and pour rates, eliminating the need for structural corner bracing. Bracing may be needed only to assure plumb and alignment in relation to the rest of the wall.

Corner and angle brackets are recessed from the surface of the EPS panels to minimize thermal bridging and avoid flashing through stucco.

Quad-Lock hinged angle brackets allow wall angles of almost any degree to be easily formed and braced. Once the panel ends are mitered at the bi-section degree of the desired angle, the bracket folds out to match the angle of the wall.

Similar to the 90° corner bracket, ties are placed through the angle bracket and into the panel. Angle brackets are only needed on the outside of the angle and will ensure that the wall is held together plumb and true without the need for extra bracing.
