Other Artisan Edge Profiles COMING SOON:

Chiseled (RF)

Mitered (MI)

Overhang Supports for Ledges and Seating Areas

Any overhang over 12 inches will require additional supports such as flat steel bars, or L"L" support brackets which Classic Granite and More can provide and install upon request.

Corbels or posts are also acceptable supports. However, we do not supply or install these products.

Another thing to be aware of is what is called the “2/3, 1/3 rule”. This is to meant to avoid a cantilever that could tip an entire bank of cabinets over, or the piece itself. Where this rule would apply, for example, is when more than 1/3 of the countertop or ledge is unsupported. That can still be a factor, even with less than 12 inches of overhang. We typically see this on raised ledges.
