4 Pcs 5" Black Solid Steel Floating Shelf Bracket Blind Shelf Supports - Hidden Brackets for Floating Wood Shelves - Concealed Blind Shelf Support – Screws and Wall Plugs Included

Light weight, great quality, easy to install, firm structure that will not bend. Very easy to use! I would recommend getting yourself a stud finder for those who do not have one. Perfect for making inexpensive wall shelves, and for busy people like us living on a budget, that can make all the difference consolidating a messy space. I plan to put knick knacks on a long shelf about a foot below the ceiling. We used a couple for a shelf to put up a computer, and a gaming console. Could also be good for plants (in front of windows would be great). Would buy again!

Well built. Included screws are good quality. I’m not using it for a floating shelf. It does work well for hanging cords, etc.

On our second set since we found that they work well. The supplied screws are small in my opinion for use on a stud wall. We used #12 screws as described below. Also found as other reviewers that the base plate and rod are not always 90 degrees to each other. However, even if they were perfect, our drywall/stud walls are not perfect so the rods can point at slightly different angles. You may have to shim the brackets as needed to fit how your holes are drilled. With the way we installed our brackets described below, wish they had a second pair of holes drilled on center with the rod - however it was not a show stopper and we didn’t need to mod it. We used DIY hollow shelves. They are 2 1/4” and 3” thick. With thicker shelves that hide the bracket, what worked for us was to turn the bracket 90 degrees and mount them with the screws (not the bracket) centered to the stud. Used #12 screws to limit flex and they were 1 1/2” and longer as needed, for example, when screwing into a corner at a slight angle. Turning the brackets 90 makes them pretty stiff for vertical weight bearing. When you have a stud wall, you can also ensure each bracket is mounted with 2 screws. Our hollow shelves have a skeleton frame inside, and then they’re wrapped with wood afterwards. This allows the holes needed at the wall and near the tip of the rod to be custom drilled to accommodate the various angles the rods take. Sometimes the holes are drilled 9/16” and a block drilled 1/2” is attached to the frame to get a precise fit. A lot of work but results in a sturdy, aligned shelf. 4 stars since many are not precisely 90 degrees between the bracket and rod. Also screws are small. Good value esp compared to the brackets that have multiple rods connected together.

These are solid steel and seem very sturdy. I have another project for these and I am going to use the next size down in drill bit as it is pretty loose on 1/2" spade bit hole.

I installed these every couple feet along a drink ledge on a 12 foot long piece of walnut. It turned out really nice and I am happy to not see any brackets under the shelf supporting it. I’ve done a few installations like this now and this one went smoother than any other, despite being the most challenging installation to read on if you want some advice… A quick note of the one bit of weirdness going on here… The holes to mount the bracket to the wall are not aligned with the rod that goes in the shelf so just keep that in mind when you’re choosing your mounting locations. It’s not any issue if you plan for it, but if you drilled your holes in your shelf before you recognize that, you might end up frustrated A half inch diameter bit with a simple drill block to ensure perpendicularity worked fine for making the holes in the shelf. I used painters, tape going up on the front of the bracket and down on the back of the bracket. The back being the part towards the wall. A few inches of painters, tape sticking up is enough to ultimately support the bracket after you position, the shelf, but we’ll get to that in a minute. The second piece of painters, tape stuck on the back of the bracket going down is so that you can insert the bracket into the shelf, rotate it to be in the right position, and then tape the lower piece of tape onto the bottom of the shelf to hold it from rotating. After you’ve done that, with all the brackets, get someone to help you position the shelf against the wall, ensuring that it’s level and use the upper tape to stick to the wall to locate the right position, then remove the tape from the bottom of the shelf. After you do that, with all of the brackets, you can gently slide the shelf away from the wall and the brackets will be stuck to the wall in the right locations. Then it’s just a matter of mounting the brackets to the wall and sliding the shelf back over. In my case, my shelf was 12 feet long, making it pretty cumbersome to handle. So I took a board on either end that was cut to length so that the shelf would be at the right height and use that to temporarily support it which helped a lot. I’m not saying it isn’t still tricky but the other times I’ve done this with shorter and lighter shelves, the alignment hasn’t been as good and it made it very hard to push onto the wall so I think this is a pretty good approach. Maybe if I do this again, I’ll make a little video because that’s always clearer than a write up.

These worked really well for my floating shelves my husband built. My shelves are very heavy and I have a lot of weight on them and they are holding up great. They were easy to use and easy to put up.

Worked just what I needed heavy duty

In the end I did not use this kit. Didn"t seem sturdy enough for my project. May use them on another project.

excelente producto a muy buen precio

Prácticos fuertes y sencillos de instalar,,recomendados

Good value and they look like they will work well

Metal bends very easily. Also would not recommend using screws provided as they broke within the wall when drilled into studs. Overall would suggest purchasing another product.

Se sienten de buena calidad tal como se ven en las imágenes.
