French Cleat Hook — Fusion add-in

Adds a French cleat hook (and optionally a bottom standoff) to a plywood side panel. The result is a normal sketch + join extrude with plain values — no user parameters.

Before — a plain side panel:

After — the hook is joined onto the panel's top-back corner:

Install

  1. In Fusion: Utilities → Add-Ins → Scripts and Add-Ins (Shift+S).
  2. On the Add-Ins tab, click + and pick the FrenchCleat/ folder of this repo.
  3. Select FrenchCleat and click Run (tick Run on Startup if you like).

The French Cleat Hook command appears in Solid → Create.

Use

  1. Pick the edge that runs through the ply thickness at the panel's top-back corner. cleat_ply is filled in from its length.
  2. If the hook points the wrong way (up instead of toward the wall), tick Flip.
  3. Optionally tick Add standoff and pick the bottom-back thickness edge.
