About  shelf bracket

It’s true that most of us don’t really give a serious thought when it comes to buying shelf brackets because at the back of our mind we realize that after all its function is only to provide support to the shelf. We tend to give more importance to the contents of the shelf and may be to some extent to the shelf itself.

Choose shelf bracket 1) How Many Shelves Are Being Installed?

You may have a shelving system with just one shelf to many more that may fit in the available area and design of the room. Next, you have to consider the items like books, tools and decorative pieces etc. to be accommodated in the shelves, and you may like to have some additional space for expansion too.

2) What Material Will the Shelves Be Made Of?

You get shelves made from metal, wood, glass or even plastic. The choice of material is especially important to consider for storing heavier items like books or domestic hardware. Shelves made from thinner materials are liable to bend and may even break depending on weight they are supporting. So choose an appropriate material such as metal or wood as per requirements.

3) How Many Brackets Will It Take?

That would largely depend upon the size of the shelf. Nevertheless, a good thumb rule is , the longer the shelf, the more is the number of brackets needed for each shelf. Shelves longer than 30 inches should ideally be provided 3 brackets. Unless adequate support is offered to longer shelves, they are sure to sag sooner than expected and may even break, again depending on the weight they bear.

4) Where Should They Be Installed

Shelf brackets necessarily need to be installed into a stud. If you mount a shelf bracket straight into drywall, it will get torn off the wall when you put weight over it. A stud finder is an easy to use inexpensive tool that you can find in any home hardware store and it’s worth having one at home all the time.While installing brackets into a solid wall such as brick or concrete, make sure to use wall anchors. Installing these anchors into weak areas (such as mortar) will result to having the same problems as installing directly into drywall over time.

5) How Much Weight Can One Shelf Carry?

That would entirely depend on the material used for making the shelf and what it is going to carry. Normally, a glass shelf wouldn’t support more than 50 pounds whereas wooden and metallic shelves can bear weights varying from 200 to 400 pounds depending on thickness.Installing shelf bracketWith the shrinking sizes of houses there never seems to be enough space for storage of even mundane items. The limited floor areas leave with no option but to go up vertically along the walls and create some storage space. Rest assured you are not the only one facing this problem; it’s almost universal now.

  

Ever tried shelf brackets! They are great and sure to provide some degree of relief. Plainly speaking these are boards that are attached to the wall. The two main features are that while offering a practical solution to your needs they go to provide an element of beauty. They make a wall appear like a big closet or a dresser, which you use for storage and they provide the decorative touch.

  

The mounting arrangements needed to support the shelf brackets are quite unsightly. That’s what it makes desirable to have floating wall shelves. They come in a variety of models, as there are a good number of manufacturers. You get them in different sizes and styles. As you start using them to take care of cluttered items around the house, you will appreciate the new look your room begins to present. And, it’s not only because of its organized looks but also the decorative aspect of the arrangement.

The challenge is to hide the brackets and mounting arrangement while maintaining the overall harmony of the room. That’s facilitated by the availability of shelving kits that come loaded with all the necessary hardware and the shelves.

Having made arrangements for the shelving kit, you need to precisely mark the area that’s going to house your shelf. Be careful in taking measurements and ask for a helping hand to facilitate accurate measurements, for any error will work out expensive, as you may have to do redo the whole exercise all over again or buy an item afresh. It needs patience but you’ll be happy with the end results.

Before you start drilling the holes, make sure that the structure is properly aligned. Acquaint yourself with the drilling machine and don’t overlook the needed precautions while drilling. Remember, going step-by step yields satisfactory desired results, even if it slows you down.

Once you are done with the drilling of holes on both the sides, you put in place the wall anchors and bolt them up. Make sure that they are secured and then mount the shelf bracket ready for use. Finally, you get something useful and good-looking too.
