Hi All,
I've got these metal long corner brackets (both sides) in my caravan front gas locker. The brackets look like an aftermarket upgrade rather than factory-fitted.
The screws are coming loose, and I’m trying to figure out if these brackets were ever meant to serve a structural purpose.
I doubt that given:
Any thoughts?

I doubt that given:
- The bracket flanges are narrow- less than 5cm each side, so I can't see how that would provide a good grip
- The (rather large) screws are only going into a thin layer of plywood (maybe 2mm tops) plus insulation, so they were always destined to work loose and fall out.
Any thoughts?
