DIY Baseboard Wall Brackets

The DIY Baseboard Heater covers available online exclusively at SupplyHouse.com resist rust and install easily. They feature a unique design that modernizes any room. The covers replace most standard-sized baseboard covers in retrofit designs by snapping to existing back plates. When there are no back plates, specially designed wall brackets support the covers. The brackets must be screwed to wall studs 7” above the floor.

The wall brackets are black (rather than the white of the actual covers). This allows them to be invisible when looking down at the covers. The area inside the covers appears black after installation. White wall brackets would stand out, diminishing the attractive look of the covers.
