additional oak battens for support.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
Q: Can I install the shelf without using a spirit level?

visually check for levelness if needed. However, using a spirit
level is recommended for best results.

Start by placing masking tape on the wall where you are planning on
positioning your new shelf. Make sure the strip of tape is wide enough to
allow you to properly mark the wall.
Next, use the spirit level to mark a straight line across the masking tape
with your pencil.
Using your tape measure, mark the holes on the line you have drawn, 35cm apart
– these will be your drill holes.
Insert your 10mm masonry drill bit in to the drill and make sure it is held in
tightly. Be sure to use eyeprotection, then drill a hole of 65mm deep at each
point marked. Ensure the drill is straight and that you apply pressure evenly
when drilling.
Insert the plastic wall-plug included with the bracket into the holes you’ve
drilled and push in to the wall until flush.
Next, put the washer onto the screw-end of the shelf brackets, and then insert
the supports in to the holes, using a spanner to tighten them up sufficiently.
Use a spirit level to ensure that the brackets are pointing out of the wall
straight and horizontally, so that you can be sure your shelf will sit flat.
Finally, you’re ready to push the shelf on to the brackets. Take care, proceed
slowly and check once more with the spirit level to ensure that your shelf is
flat. Prior to pushing the shelf against the wall, finely adjust the bracket
using the spanner so that the off-set cam rotates and touches the inside of
the holes. This holds the shelf in place.
Please take care when installing to ensure that the shelves are mounted at suitable and safe heights (particularly in areas that children may frequent). Similarly, if you feel there is a possibility that you will be storing moderately heavy items on the shelving, or that these will be placed in areas utilised by children, we recommend purchasing additional oak battens for extra support.
