I am writing this review to include information I would have liked to know but wasn't up when I bought. The usable surface area of the "flat" part of the curve is just about five inches. Also, the only hardware included is made for folks putting these in drywall, so if you're putting them in wood, be prepared to drill a 1/4" hole (it's bigger than it sounds). That is, you need an electric drill and bit to install directly in wood.

Once installed, they are great. Very sturdy. All I could find locally were those hooks with screw ends. I didn't think they would hold up long.

I looked at one negative view but I ignored it since other reviews were positive. I purchased two sets of brackets. I should have listened to the negative review. These are medium quality, light weight brackets. They are NOT made of steel. The screws that come in the package are definitely no good for going into wood. I predrilled the redwood with 1/4 inch holes. When I power drove the screws, the head snapped off. When I drove the screws by hand, the heads stripped. The screws provided appear to be made of aluminum and have a hollow center. Very low strength.

I would not buy these again. I should have made my own brackets out of 1/2 galvanized water pipe. They are cheaper, much stronger and resist rust.

Glad to finally find hooks for my ladder that will not bend/break within a couple of years. Highly recommend these.
