FAQs
What type of wood is used for this shelf?
The shelf is made from solid pine sourced from sustainable sawmills across Europe.
Is each shelf identical?
No, each shelf is unique due to the natural live edge design, meaning the grain pattern and exact edge shape will vary.
How is the floating effect achieved?
The shelf comes with hidden fixings or brackets that are mounted to the wall first. The shelf then slides onto these brackets, concealing them for a seamless, floating appearance.
What is the weight limit for the shelf?
The weight limit depends on the strength of the wall fixings used and the type of wall. Always use appropriate hardware and consider mounting into wall studs for maximum support.
What is the best way to clean the shelf?
Clean the shelf with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the wood finish.
Does the shelf come with mounting hardware?
The shelf includes hidden fixings for mounting, but the specific screws or anchors for your wall type may need to be purchased separately to ensure a secure installation.
Can this shelf be used in a bathroom or kitchen?
While it can be used in these areas, it's advisable to protect it from excessive moisture and humidity, as prolonged exposure can affect solid wood.
Troubleshooting
Shelf is not level
Check if the hidden brackets are installed perfectly horizontally. Adjust bracket placement or use shims if necessary.
Shelf feels loose or unstable
Ensure the hidden brackets are securely fastened to the wall. Verify that appropriate wall anchors were used for the wall type and that the shelf is fully seated on the brackets.
Visible gap between shelf and wall
This can sometimes occur due to slight imperfections in the wall or the shelf's live edge. Ensure brackets are mounted as close to the wall as possible and that the shelf is pushed fully onto them. Minor adjustments may be needed.
