Ballet Bar Brackets
Ballet bar brackets are used to hold the Ballet Barres which are used by the ballet dancers to warm up or to check their stability.
The use that these barres are put to makes strength tha bar bracket an important criteria while deciding to buy it. This is important as these
Brackets and Barres that fit into them should serve every need of the dancer and any lax in quality should not be tolerated.
Some of the basic criteria the ballet bar brackets should fulfill are listed as follows. The bar bracket should be made of metal so that it
provides the maximum support to the Barre that fits into the whole thing. These brackets should be attached to the wall using screws that are
atleast 2 inches long and these screws should be fit into a wood stud or concrete.
These brackets should be able to hold Barres of atleast 6 inches in length. The most ideal design of Barre bracket is one that wraps around
the Baree completely and provides it strong support with a lock tap and ensures it does not move when the dancer is working on it. The most ideal
brackets are those that can hold two Barres simultaneously.
The Barres should not have Brackets that are too close together. This may seem attractive initially, but in the long run they create many hard
spots on the Barre surface and thus proves to expensive. The brackets should always be angled away from the bar. If they are not, then the dancer
has a chance of injuring his/her foot while bringing it down by slamming on to the bracket.
The adjustable brackets are also not a good choice as they are not usually strong enough to hold the Barres so that it does not move. They
also make a lot of squeak noises and thus should not be a preferred option.
You should keep the above points in mind while buying a Barre bracket while designing you dance studio as it should have an environment that
appeals to the dancers.
