Product Usage Instructions

Step 1: Mark a level line across the wall
Using a level, mark a straight and level line across the wall where you intend to hang the floating shelf. This line will serve as a guide for the installation process.

Step 2: Locate the studs
Use a stud finder or other suitable method to locate the position of the studs on the wall. It is recommended to mount the brackets to at least one stud for secure installation.

Step 3: Pre-drill holes (if necessary)
If desired or necessary, use an appropriate drill bit to pre-drill holes on the marked spots where the brackets will be installed. This step may not be required if the brackets can be directly screwed into the wall without causing any damage.

Step 4: Attach the brackets
Screw the brackets into the appropriate locations on the wall using the provided screws. Make sure they are firmly secured to ensure stability and weight-bearing capacity.

Step 5: Slide the shelf over the brackets
Place the shelf or mantel over the installed brackets. Ensure that the shelf is properly aligned and slides onto the brackets securely.

Step 6: Check for level and adjust
Use a level to check if the shelf is perfectly horizontal. If necessary, make adjustments to the position of the shelf by sliding it slightly until it is level.

Note: The user manual recommends contacting a local professional if you are not familiar with the required tools or need additional mounting help. Please use common sense when installing the floating shelves.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

Q: Are the screws and brackets included with the floating shelves?
A: Yes, the product package includes 2 brackets along with the necessary screws for installation.

Q: Can I install the floating shelves without locating studs?
A: While it is recommended to mount the brackets to at least one stud for stability, you may explore alternative methods such as using wall anchors or other suitable hardware designed for non-stud mounting. However, please note that these methods may not provide the same level of strength and stability as mounting to studs.

Q: Can I install the floating shelves on different types of walls?
A: Yes, the floating shelves can be installed on various types of walls such as drywall, plaster, or concrete. However, it is important to use appropriate hardware and techniques suitable for each specific wall type.

PLEASE NOTE: Since we do not know where your studs are located, we are unable to pre-drill any holes for the hardware. Thank you!

STEP 1 Mark a level line across the wall where the piece will be hung. It is recommended that you mount brackets to at least 1 stud.

STEP 2 Mark where your studs are located on the wall.

STEP 3 Prep your shelf by drilling 2 holes (½”) and just deep enough to fit the bracket. We recommend adding a piece of tape to your drill bit so you know where to stop! (This is not done ahead of time because we have no way of knowing where your studs will be located for your particular application.)

STEP 4 Screw bracket(s) into appropriate locations.

STEP 5 Slide shelf/mantel over the brackets.

STEP 6 Check for level and adjust accordingly.

Includes 2 Brackets with screws. Please use common sense! We recommend you contact a local professional for additional mounting help if you are not familiar with the needed tools!
