FAQs
What type of wood is used for the shelf?
The shelf is handmade from high-quality solid pine sourced from sustainable sawmills across Europe, often using reclaimed scaffold boards.
Will my shelf look exactly like the picture?
No, each shelf is handmade from reclaimed materials, meaning natural variations in wood grain, knots, and color are expected and contribute to its unique character.
What is the weight capacity of the shelf?
The exact weight capacity depends on the wall type and the fixings used during installation. Ensure you use appropriate hardware for your wall to achieve maximum stability.
How do I clean and maintain the Dark Oak finish?
Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth and wipe dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Can I order a shelf in a different finish or size?
This guide specifically covers the Dark Oak finish. Please refer to other product listings for available sizes or different finish options.
Is assembly required?
The shelf itself is a single piece. The main 'assembly' involves securely mounting the hidden brackets to your wall and then sliding the shelf onto them.
Troubleshooting
Shelf appears wobbly or unstable.
Ensure the mounting brackets are securely fastened to the wall with appropriate fixings for your wall type. Double-check that the shelf is fully seated on the brackets.
Finish seems dull or scratched.
Gently clean the surface with a slightly damp cloth. For minor scratches, a wood polish designed for dark oak finishes might help. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Difficulty installing brackets flush with the wall.
Ensure you are using the correct drill bit size for your screws and wall anchors. Use a spirit level to mark bracket positions accurately before drilling.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure you have appropriate wall fixings for your wall type (e.g., drywall anchors, masonry plugs). Follow the included instructions to securely attach the mounting brackets to the wall. Once brackets are fixed, slide the shelf onto the brackets, ensuring a snug fit. It is recommended to have a spirit level to ensure the shelf is mounted straight.
