Important Lumber Information
The Easy 1-2-3 A-Frame Bracket is designed to fit a kiln-dried 4"x6" top beam with a true measurement of 3-1/2" x 5-1/2". The bracket opening measures 3-5/8" x 5-5/8". We suggest measuring your lumber before purchasing to ensure it meets those specifications.
Do not attempt to force the wood into the bracket. The lumber should slide into the bracket easily with a snug fit. If your boards are too large it is recommended that the wood be planed down to produce a comfortable fit.
Swing Frame Angles
- The angle between the two legs is approximately 45 degrees
- The angle between the top beam and the side support leg is approximately 105 degrees
