    1. Choose Bracket Size

    L Brackets are super versatile and do not need an exact size. Choose a bracket at least 2/3 the depth of the shelf. For example, a 12" deep shelf could use a 9" or 11" bracket.

    2. Bracket Quantity

    Many shelves need more than two brackets for enough support. For shelves longer than 36" we recommend three or more. Check out our guide for more info

    Worked great to hang two wooden shelves! I was confused when the one part of the bracket had only one hole even though the pictures show two on each side.

    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

    How Long is each support side?

    L brackets have two sides: an "arm" which holds the shelf and a "leg" which mounts to the wall.

    The size options reflects the arm length.

    Every bracket has a 6" standard leg to mount to wall. This create a minimal look and is also strong enough to hold the shelf.

    Do You Make Custom Brackets?

    Yes! We are happy to work with you to create brackets custom fit for your shelving project. Just send us a message with the details of your project and we'll get the ball rolling!

    How Long To Get My Order?

    We work hard to get orders out as soon as possible. Typically, we ship out orders within 1- 3 business days, though larger or custom orders may take a bit more time. Shipping time depends on location & size of order.

    If you take a look at our reviews, you’ll see that quick turnaround and customer service is something we take pride in.

    Can I Order a Sample?

    Yes! We offer a Sample Finish Kit for all of our metal finishes so you can see the finishes first hand.

    Can L brackets mount both directions?

    Yes! Our L brackets can be mounted below the shelf (classic) or flipped, with leg behind and above the shelf for a more minimal holder.

    versatile, classic, strong

    Our shelf brackets offer reliable support for a range of shelving needs. The Standard L Brackets are ideal for basic wall shelves in bathrooms, kitchens, and offices, providing sturdy and stylish support. Also available in a double bracket design.

    For larger or heavier shelving projects, like garage storage or commercial displays, our Heavy Duty Brackets deliver extra strength. Versatile in design, they can be installed beneath the shelf for added support or behind it for a minimal, floating effect, making them a great choice for unique shelf sizes and raw edge lumber.
