FAQs

What type of wood is used for this shelf?

The shelf is made from high-quality solid pine, sourced from sustainable sawmills across Europe.

How is the shelf mounted?

The shelf features a concealed floating mounting system. Appropriate wall fixings need to be purchased separately based on your wall type.

Can I cut the shelf to a different size?

It is not recommended to alter the shelf's dimensions as this will void the warranty and may compromise its structural integrity.

How do I clean the Walnut finish?

Wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

Is this shelf suitable for bathrooms?

While the finish offers some protection, it's best suited for dry interior environments. High humidity areas like bathrooms are not ideal due to potential moisture damage to the solid wood.

What is the weight limit for this shelf?

The weight limit depends heavily on the quality of your wall fixings and the wall material itself. Distribute weight evenly and avoid overloading.

Does the shelf come with mounting hardware?

The shelf comes with the internal bracket for mounting, but not the screws and wall plugs, as these must be chosen based on your specific wall type.

Troubleshooting

Shelf appears uneven after mounting

Check the wall mounting brackets for levelness before attaching the shelf. Adjust the wall fixings if necessary.

Concerns about weight capacity

Distribute weight evenly across the shelf. Avoid overloading, and ensure the wall fixings are rated for the intended load. Consult a professional if unsure.

Wood finish looks inconsistent

This is a characteristic of handmade solid wood products. Embrace the natural variation. For significant issues, contact customer support.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Handmade quality with unique character.
  • Durable solid wood construction built to last.
  • Clean, floating aesthetic for a modern look.
  • Sustainably sourced materials align with eco-conscious values.
  • Rich Walnut finish adds warmth and style.

Cons

  • May require specific, robust wall fixings due to weight.
  • Natural wood variations mean no two shelves are identical.
  • Reclaimed scaffold board design might not suit all modern decors.
  • Length of shelf may influence weight-bearing capacity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Due to the nature of floating shelves and their solid wood construction, professional installation or careful DIY mounting is recommended. Ensure you use appropriate wall fixings (e.g., heavy-duty screws and wall plugs suitable for your wall type – plasterboard, brick, etc.). The internal mounting system will require secure attachment to the wall structure.

Compatibility: This shelf is designed for interior use. It is compatible with most standard wall types, provided the correct fixings are used. Consider the weight of items you intend to place on the shelf and ensure the wall and fixings can support this load.

Care: Clean the shelf with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture, which can damage the wood finish. Periodically check that the mounting fixings remain secure, especially if the shelf bears a heavy load. Protect from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
