How to Install Floating Shelves

Inside the box you should have a floating shelf, a bracket, a pack that contains wall screws, wall plugs, and two smaller screws for the underside of the shelf. Ah, and instructions of course.

Check you have all these essentials for installing floating shelves before you begin!

If you look at your shelf you should notice two holes on the back of the shelf, this is where you’ll attach the shelf to the bracket. You’ll also notice two holes on the underside of the shelf, make sure these holes are facing downwards when you attach your shelf.

Using a spirit level, decide where your bracket is going to go. Now, ensure your bracket is level and mark on the wall where you want your wall plugs and screws to go.

Using a drill, drill a hole into the wall where you have marked. Next, insert your wall plugs.

It’s now time to screw the bracket to the wall, place your bracket against the wall and using your provided screws screw in the bracket. You can use either a screwdriver or a drill for this. 

On the back of your shelf you will notice two holes, slide these onto the bracket. 

Finally you will notice two screw holes on the underside of your shelf, screw in your remaining screws to tighten the bracket to the shelf. 

Finally make it your own.
