The Uses of an Angled Nail Gun

    • Angled nail guns come in a variety of styles and models but are best known for helping the builder get into tight corners and angled spaces. These guns are especially effective for helping the builder finish a job or complete the trim on a wall, door or other framed area. Angled nail guns let the builder demonstrate total control over the depth, angle, speed and power with which she sets the nails.

    Finish and Trim

    • Finish and trim jobs often require you to place a nail precisely in a tight or angled space, such as a corner where two walls meet. Placing nails incorrectly may compromise the quality of your job significantly. With an angled nail gun, the shape of the handle, nose and point that drills the nail in removes the need to twist or bend your wrist into uncomfortable positions. These guns aim the nail into tight corners easily and accurately.

    Power

    • Most angled nail guns are meant for finishing jobs. For this reason, the user often seeks strength in an angled nail gun to drive through tough surfaces like solid oak. Most angled nail guns are equipped with powerful motors to help secure nails flawlessly into thick, hard surfaces.

    Sequential or Automatic

    • Depending on how accurate your nails must land, you can choose either sequential or automatic firing. When firing with sequential, you have maximum control over where the nail lands and must press the trigger each time to fire. When using the automatic setting, you can hold the trigger down, and nails will continually fire from the gun.

    Depth

    • Angled nail guns are ideal for jobs when the user must fire nails at an array of depths. Nail guns are used to get into awkwardly angled spaces and tight corners, which often require the nail to be set deeper. By turning the depth adjustment dial, the user manipulates how far the nail is set into the material being nailed.
