FAQs

What are the dimensions of the 60cm shelf set?

The 60cm shelf option has approximate dimensions of Height 4cm, Width 60cm, and Depth 23.5cm.

Can I buy just one shelf instead of a set of three?

This product is sold in a set of 3, so individual shelf purchases are not typically available for this specific listing.

What colors are these shelves available in?

The shelves are available in Oak, Grey, Oak Black, Anthracite Oak, and White.

Are the fixings suitable for all wall types?

The included fixings are general purpose. For optimal stability and safety, it is recommended to use fixings specifically designed for your wall type (e.g., plasterboard, brick, concrete).

How much weight can each shelf hold?

Weight capacity depends on secure mounting and wall type. Always ensure the wall and fixings can support the intended load. Distribute weight evenly.

Is assembly difficult for someone with no DIY experience?

The shelves are designed for easy assembly. However, basic DIY skills like drilling and using a level are beneficial. Ensure you follow the included instructions carefully.

What material are the shelves made from?

The shelves are made of wood with a matt finish.

Troubleshooting

Shelf is wobbly or unstable.

Ensure the invisible fixing brackets are securely screwed into the wall. If using wall anchors, verify they are properly seated and suitable for the wall type. Check that the shelf is fully seated onto the brackets.

Difficulty in aligning shelf or brackets.

Use a spirit level and pencil to mark bracket positions accurately before drilling. Double-check measurements and ensure brackets are installed parallel to each other.

Weight capacity seems insufficient.

Ensure the shelf is mounted into wall studs or using appropriate heavy-duty wall anchors for your wall type. Distribute weight evenly across the shelf. Refer to manufacturer guidelines for maximum weight limits if available.

The 'invisible' fixings are still visible.

This may be due to incorrect installation. Ensure the shelf is fully pushed onto the brackets and that the brackets themselves are the correct type for this shelf model and are installed flush against the wall.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Gather Tools: You will typically need a drill, a level, a pencil, and a screwdriver. Ensure you have the correct drill bits for your wall type (e.g., drywall, masonry).
  2. Mark Placement: Use a level and pencil to mark the desired position for the shelf brackets on the wall.

  4. Attach Brackets: Secure the invisible fixing brackets to the wall using screws.
  5. Mount Shelf: Slide the wooden shelf onto the mounted brackets, ensuring it is flush and stable.

Compatibility:

These shelves are designed for mounting on most standard wall types. Compatibility depends heavily on using the correct fixings for your specific wall material. Ensure the wall can support the intended weight of the shelf and its contents. The shelf dimensions (e.g., 60cm W x 23.5cm D for the 60cm option) should be considered for suitability in your chosen space.

Care:

  • Clean the shelf surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture, which can damage the wood finish.
  • Periodically check that the fixings remain secure to ensure continued stability.
