Shelf Bracket Standard 200mm

A single 200mm standard bracket, for a floating style shelf depth or a picture ledge. Hooks into any 32mm pitch upright, ours or anybody else's.

Brackets are where cheap shelving gives itself away. A 2mm pressed bracket will hold a shelf and will also flex enough that the shelf front dips under a row of hardbacks. Ours are 3mm for the standard range and 4mm with a welded gusset for the heavy duty range, and the hooks are formed rather than welded on, which is what stops them opening up over time. Every bracket takes a shelf clip, supplied, so the board cannot slide forward off the front.

Fitting

Two people, a drill, a spirit level and about two hours for a single wall. Mark the top line first and hang every upright from it rather than measuring up from the floor, because floors are never level and a shelf that follows the floor looks wrong in a way nobody can put their finger on. Fix the first upright, level it, then use a shelf as a straight edge to set the next one. The fixing pack, a paper template and a printed sequence are in the box.
