Mounting Bar Options
As Seen on Home and Garden Networks HGTV's Curb
Appeal Show - Episode #2004
#1 As seen on this 20" wide Pontalba window box a one inch wide strip with 1/4"
diameter holes is attached to the back of the box 1/2" below the top of the horizontal
side bars.
The advantage to this method is that all windows have footers which are usually
made of wooden 2 x 4's or 2x6" that you can attach to with wood screws.
#2 The above Bellflower window box is designed with a mounting strip 4 1/2" below
the top of the horizontal side bars.
This configuration allows the window box to be mounted around a protruding window
sill. It also lifts the flower box up so the flowers can be more easily seen from the
inside of your house. (One word of caution ....if your windows open out it may cause
a problem)
#3 Note: tabs can be on the inside or outside of the window box frame.
These side mounting brackets on this cathedral window box provides the option of
installing your window box at any height in relation to the window.
If you have any specific requirements i.e.: spacing of holes for screws or height of
mounting bar from top of box, just let is know and we will try to accommodate you.
Mounting bar options for your window box
There is not a standard for mounting your window boxes, location on your window, width or even height relevant to the window
sill. Everyone has their own preferences. We want to accommodate your preferences and offer three basic types of mounting
bars. In addition holes can be drilled into the back of bottom frame for additional stability if used on a tall building.
