Frequntly Asked Questions

How much weight can the alcove shelves hold?

The maximum weight capacity depends on the size of your shelf, wall material, brackets, and fixings used. We recommend fixing larger shelves to masonry with our heavy duty adjustable brackets, using at least 50mm screws and anchors. This provides the strongest mounting. Smaller shelves or mounting to softer wall materials will reduce the weight capacity considerably.

What are the alcove shelves made of?

Our shelves start with a durable MDF core which we expertly machine and hand finish to your custom dimensions. The surfaces are covered in a scratch-resistant melamine laminate finish available in oak, white, black, and a paintable raw MDF version.

Are mounting brackets included?

Yes, standard screw brackets are available for all board thicknesses, while our heavy-duty adjustable brackets are available for 38mm and 50mm boards. Screws and wall anchors are not included - make sure to use appropriate fixings for your wall type.

Should I mount to the wall studs if installing on plasterboard?

Yes, try to align at least one bracket per shelf to a wall stud. This greatly improves stability. If stud alignment isn't possible, use specialised plasterboard fixings.

How are the alcove shelves installed?

First attach the adjustable brackets securely onto the wall, properly spaced to match the shelf width. Make sure the brackets are level, then set the shelf onto the bracket pegs.

We have made a guide on how to install floating shelves which features step-by-step instructions as well as all the tools you will need for installation.

I ordered 3 floating shelves. Despite there being an adjustment mechanism in the bracket to alter the angle of the shelf, there were no fitting instructions were sent with the shelves. One of the shelves had 3 cut marks on the top surface, which was disappointing since they cost £130.00 each. Apart from that they were great.

Had an initial issue with the order as the wrong product was delivered but this was dealt with quickly. Sadly for the cost I am disappointed with the quality of the product, horrible stickers left on the shelves that are difficult to remove and have left a mark. Installation is also tricky. You need to have the rods lining up pretty well to get them all in at the same time

An excellent alternative to solid oak shelves. Very well made with crisp, neatly well- finished edges.
