Safety Instructions

WARNING! Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious injury or damage.

  1. Two-person assembly: The shelf is heavy; have someone assist you.
  2. Secure mounting: Always mount to wall studs or use appropriate wall anchors for your wall type (drywall, concrete, etc.).
  3. Weight limit: Do not exceed maximum load capacity (see Specifications).
  4. Child safety: Do not allow children to climb on the shelf.
  5. Check stability: Ensure the unit is level and securely fastened before use.

Assembly Steps

Follow these steps in order. Do not fully tighten screws until all parts are aligned.

  1. Lay out frame: Place the steel frame on a soft, protected surface to avoid scratches.
  2. Attach shelves: Position the two ash veneer shelves onto the frame brackets. Align the pre-drilled holes.
  3. Insert screws: Using the included Allen key, insert and hand-tighten the screws through the frame into the shelves. Do not overtighten.
  4. Final tightening: Once all screws are in place and shelves are level, fully tighten all screws securely.
  5. Attach mounting brackets: Secure the two wall mounting brackets to the back of the steel frame using the provided bolts.

Tip: Keep the assembly on the floor until you are ready to mount it on the wall.

Wall Mounting Instructions

This is a critical step for safety. Mounting into wall studs is strongly recommended.

  1. Locate studs: Use a stud finder to locate at least two wall studs where the shelf will be mounted.
  2. Mark bracket positions: Hold the assembled shelf against the wall at the desired height. Use a level to ensure it is perfectly horizontal. Lightly mark the wall through the holes in the mounting brackets.
  3. Pre-drill holes: At the marked points, pre-drill pilot holes into the studs. If not mounting into studs, use appropriate wall anchors for your wall type and drill holes for them.
  4. Secure to wall: Align the mounting brackets with the holes. Insert the provided screws through the brackets and into the wall studs or anchors. Tighten securely with a screwdriver.
  5. Final check: Gently pull on the shelf to confirm it is firmly attached to the wall. Ensure it does not wobble.

CAUTION! Never mount this shelf using only drywall anchors without hitting a stud. The unit can fall if not properly secured.

Care & Maintenance

To maintain the appearance and longevity of your shelf:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the steel frame with a dry or slightly damp cloth. For the wood shelves, use a dry, soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals.
  2. Moisture: Avoid placing in areas of high humidity or direct contact with water. Wipe spills immediately from the wood surface.
  3. Sunlight: Prolonged direct sunlight may fade the wood veneer over time.
  4. Tightening: Periodically check that all screws and wall mounts are tight.
