Product Information
Full details
The Core Products Avon Shelf Kit in black is ideal for homeowners and renters seeking a modern, minimalist storage solution for books, plants, or decorative ornaments. Its key benefit is the dual-purpose mounting system that allows the brackets to be used as standard supports or as bookends for added utility. A primary caveat is that while the included fixings work for most standard walls, users with specialized surfaces like hollow drywall or solid concrete may need to source specific anchors separately to ensure maximum stability.

FAQs
What is the weight capacity of this shelf?
While capacity depends on the wall type and fixings, it is designed for standard home use including books and decorative items.
Can I paint the shelf?
The shelf comes with a factory finish; while it can be painted, doing so will void your warranty and may affect the durability of the surface.
Are the brackets made of real silver?
No, they are metal brackets with a silver-effect finish for aesthetic purposes.
Can this be installed in a bathroom?
It is designed for general home use. We recommend avoiding high-humidity areas unless the wall and room have adequate ventilation to prevent moisture buildup.
What tools do I need for installation?
You will need a drill, a screwdriver, a pencil, and a spirit level.
Troubleshooting
The shelf feels loose after installation.
Ensure the wall plugs are fully seated and that the screws are tightened firmly into the bracket holes.
The shelf is not level.
Remove the shelf and use a spirit level to re-measure your anchor points before re-drilling.
Screws won't bite into the wall.
You may be using an incorrect drill bit size or installing into a soft wall type that requires specialized toggle bolts.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Sleek and modern black finish complements most decor styles.
- Flexible bracket orientation allows for customized bookshelf configurations.
- Easy to install with all essential hardware included in the box.
- Sturdy construction suitable for ornaments and medium-weight items.
Cons
- Included fixings may not be suitable for all wall types like specialized plasterboard.
- The 900mm width requires stable wall studs for heavy loads.
- Color is limited to a single black finish option.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward. Begin by marking your wall using a level to ensure the shelf is perfectly horizontal. Use a drill bit compatible with the provided wall plugs to create your anchor points.
Compatibility Note: While the kit is designed for most standard interior walls, verify your wall material before drilling. For hollow walls (drywall/stud), ensure you are drilling into the timber stud for the best weight-bearing capacity.
Care Instructions:
- Clean using a soft, dry cloth or a slightly damp microfiber towel.
- Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads as they may damage the black finish.
- Periodically check the screw tightness on the brackets every 6-12 months to maintain safety.
