Outside Fasteners: Build Bold, Build Strong

One of the biggest perks of using outside fasteners is how fast they are to install. Whether it’s a corner bracket or a gusset, you’re looking at a tool-friendly, no-fuss setup that’s ideal for prototyping, temporary structures, or when you just want to move fast.

In environments where vibration, movement, or heavy weight is part of daily operations, external fasteners give you that added peace of mind. You can see the support, trust the hold, and adjust easily if needed.

Just like everything in the Modular 1 range, these fasteners are made to be reused and reconfigured. Take it apart. Move it. Build it again. They’re ready.

We stock a curated range of fasteners, each designed to solve a specific structural need—without compromising on looks or ease of use.

The classic. A corner bracket connects two or three profiles at 90-degree angles, providing rigid support at the corners of your frame. Whether you’re building enclosures, carts, or shelving units, these are an essential part of your build kit.

Available in a variety of shapes and sizes—from small, discreet brackets to heavy-duty versions for industrial builds—our corner brackets are pre-drilled, easy to align, and made from high-strength aluminium or steel.

Plates are flat, external fastening components that connect profiles along one or more axes. Think of them as the “flat mates” of your extrusion system. Perfect for butt joints, mid-frame reinforcements, or adding rigidity to open spans.

We offer single-axis plates, multi-hole plates, and angle plates in various thicknesses. They’re clean, functional, and super versatile.

These are your best friends when connecting two profiles end-to-end. Joining plates provide a strong surface-to-surface connection, ensuring the profiles remain aligned and stable under load.

Whether you’re building long spans or joining sections in the field, these plates make the job simple and solid.

Need serious strength? Gussets are here for the heavy lifting. These reinforced brackets typically have a triangular profile that braces the corner or junction, preventing flexing or movement over time.

They’re ideal for high-stress builds—like machine bases, robotics enclosures, or mobile frames that experience vibration.

Need flexibility on alignment or mounting positions? A slotted corner bracket gives you exactly that. With elongated mounting holes, these brackets allow for fine-tuning during installation—especially helpful when working with pre-existing holes or tricky angles.

They offer a forgiving install without sacrificing strength. Once tightened, they hold like a rock.
