FAQs
Does this bracket come with screws?
No, the mounting hardware is not included with the bracket.
Can these be used outdoors?
While the powder-coated finish provides protection, they are primarily designed for interior use. If used outdoors, regular inspections for rust are recommended.
What is the weight capacity of these brackets?
The weight capacity depends largely on the surface they are mounted to and the type of fasteners used. Always ensure professional-grade anchors are used for heavy loads.
Can I paint these a different color?
Yes, you can lightly sand the surface and apply a spray paint suitable for metal if you wish to change the color.
What type of shelving boards work best?
Solid wood planks work best with these brackets, as they provide a stable surface to screw into through the bracket mounting holes.
Troubleshooting
The bracket feels wobbly after installation.
Ensure the screws are driven into solid wall studs or use appropriate, high-quality wall anchors for your specific wall material.
The bracket is not perfectly level.
Loosen the mounting screws slightly, use a spirit level to adjust the position, and re-tighten the fasteners.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install these brackets, measure your desired spacing carefully to ensure the shelf remains level. Because the product does not include mounting hardware, select screws and wall anchors that are appropriate for your specific wall type—such as masonry anchors for brick or toggles for drywall. Once mounted, use a spirit level to verify alignment before securing the shelf board to the brackets. To maintain the finish, simply wipe the iron occasionally with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. If the finish is scratched, a small amount of matte black touch-up paint can be used to prevent surface oxidation.
