    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

    What Size J bracket do i need?

    For J brackets, we recommend ordering based on the exact depth of your shelf. If your shelf board is 11.25" deep (or wide), you'll need a 11.25" deep J bracket.

    We offer sizes to fit both standard dimensional lumber (available at hardware stores) and custom or pre-made shelf boards.

    How high is the back of the J bracket?

    Our J brackets all have a 6" back leg to mount into the wall. This is sufficient to hold the sizes we offer.

    We can customize the back leg down to 4" on orders of four or more. Shorter legs are not recommended to hold a 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.

    This is the second time I’ve ordered these brackets for shelving projects (I got the heavy duty for a bookshelf previously), and let me tell you, they are awesome! They are super sturdy, easy to install, and look so much nicer than any bracket you would find at a big box hardware store. Would 100 percent recommend. Shipping was lightning fast and very well-packaged. Buy these!!

    These are great! I’ve bought 3 sets for separate areas of my home because I love the style and quality so much.

    We did have a minor defect on one of the screws recently. My husband must have over-cranked the wrench and the head of the screw broke off. Since it was already screwed into the wall, and it was on the center of three brackets supporting the shelf, we just super glued it on and I think it will be fine.
