Reveal Support Plate
The Ancon Reveal Support Plate is designed to support the first few bricks of a full brick (215mm deep) window reveal during construction. The plate will bond into the bed joint of the outer leaf providing a stable bearing for the reveal brick.
The long leg of the plate is built into the bed joint of the external leaf with the arrow pointing inwards. To ensure stability, the outer leaf should be built at least one brick high on top of the plate prior to the reveal brick being placed.
