Product Information

Full details

The FLATE Vinyl Record Wall Mount is designed for music enthusiasts who want to combine functional storage with a minimalist display aesthetic. It serves as an ideal solution for showcasing a featured album cover while securely housing a small collection of up to 12 LPs, making it a perfect choice for small living spaces or dedicated listening corners. While it provides excellent accessibility and a sturdy build, it is worth noting that it is purpose-built for 12-inch records and cannot accommodate larger box sets or varied media sizes.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can this hold double LP gatefold covers?

Yes, the rear compartment is designed to accommodate standard 12-inch records, including most gatefold sleeves.

Is the mounting hardware included?

Yes, the FLATE shelf comes with a complete mounting kit for easy installation.

What is the maximum weight capacity?

The shelf is designed to hold up to 12 standard 12-inch vinyl records safely.

Does it work with 7-inch singles?

The shelf is specifically designed for 12-inch vinyl; 7-inch records will likely sit too low in the compartment and may not display correctly.

Can I paint the steel frame to match my wall?

While the powder-coated finish is durable, you can use a spray paint suitable for metal if you wish to change the color, though we recommend testing on a small, inconspicuous area first.

Troubleshooting

The shelf feels loose after installation.

Ensure that the mounting screws are tightened fully into wall anchors or directly into a wooden stud. If using drywall anchors, verify they are the correct size for the weight of a full vinyl load.

Vinyl sleeves are scratching when being inserted.

Check the edges of the powder-coated steel frame for any debris or construction burrs. If found, use a fine-grit sandpaper to gently smooth the specific edge.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable powder-coated steel construction
  • Allows for both storage and front-facing display
  • Compact footprint ideal for small spaces
  • Included hardware simplifies the installation process

Cons

  • Limited to a capacity of 12 records
  • Not suitable for larger vinyl box sets or non-12-inch formats
  • Requires wall mounting, which may not be ideal for rental units

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward due to the included mounting kit. Ensure you are mounting the unit into a secure wall surface, such as a stud or using appropriate anchors for drywall.

  1. Placement: Measure your wall space to ensure you have enough clearance for the 32.5 cm frame height and width.
  2. Leveling: Use a spirit level to ensure the unit is perfectly horizontal before marking your screw holes.
  3. Mounting: Use the provided hardware to secure the steel rack firmly against the wall.
  4. Maintenance: Periodically dust the powder-coated steel with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these may degrade the matte black finish over time. If the surface becomes scuffed, a gentle touch-up with a mild non-abrasive cleaner is usually sufficient.
