Product Information
Full details
The Spira Brass Art Deco Shelf Bracket is designed for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts looking to combine aesthetic vintage charm with robust structural support. Ideal for heavy-duty shelving in kitchens, living rooms, or home offices, these brackets offer a stylish way to organize your space; however, because they arrive as a solid-cast pair, ensure your wall material is strong enough to support the intended weight of the shelves and the brackets themselves.

FAQs
What are the dimensions of the bracket?
Each bracket measures 220mm x 220mm x 20mm.
Are the mounting screws included?
Please verify the package contents upon arrival, as universal mounting hardware is not always included to allow for the use of anchors specific to your wall type.
Can these be used outdoors?
While the finish is durable, they are primarily designed for interior use to prevent potential weathering or corrosion.
How much weight can these brackets hold?
These are heavy-duty brackets designed for significant weight; however, the actual load capacity depends heavily on the mounting method and the structural integrity of your wall.
Can I use these for glass shelves?
Yes, they can support glass shelves, provided you use appropriate rubber or felt pads to prevent the glass from slipping and to protect the shelf surface.
Troubleshooting
Shelf is sagging or not level
Check if the screws are fully tightened and ensure that the bracket arms were mounted perfectly level on the wall.
Bracket feels loose on the wall
Verify that you are using wall anchors appropriate for your wall material (e.g., toggle bolts for drywall or masonry plugs for brick) and that the pilot holes are not over-drilled.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires a spirit level, a drill, and appropriate screws for your specific wall type. Begin by marking the desired shelf height on the wall and ensuring the two brackets are perfectly aligned horizontally. Once pilot holes are drilled, secure the brackets and test the stability before placing any items on the shelves. To maintain the black finish, wipe the brackets periodically with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads, as these can strip the finish and expose the underlying metal to potential oxidation.
