Lack wall shelf mounting instructions.

Slid the shelf over the bracket fastened it. I decided to use three wall anchors one of each end of the shelf mount and one in the middle for good measure. I bought one of the shelves thinking it would be simple to install as a floating shelf but since i m installing it over my desk i want to be sure it won t come loose and fall. Put your screws into the wall mount the shelf and then give it a few whacks on the top back edge with a rubber hammer or the ikea hammer with the plastic cap in the end.

Has anyone have experience installing an ikea lack shelf. For added security and avoid topple over incidences make a similar ledge for the top shelf. When you put your screw into this wall mount the wall mount expands further keeping your shelf in place and secure. To begin my ikea lack shelf installation i positioned the shelf mount to and used a leveler to make sure that my shelf would be centered.

That will force the tops of the screws up into the narrow part of the mounting bracket and the shelf should feel locked to the wall. Slide the wall shelf over the bracket and push it until it is flush against the wall. Below you can view and download the pdf manual for free. Does anyone have any recommendations for the screws i should use.

Wall mounting the lack wall unit backwards i would rather make a small shelf ledge wall brackets with a piece of wood cut to the size of the lack base. What you do with these is drill a pilot hole into the wall and screw these in. They will basically reinforce the hole for your screw so that it doesn t fall out. Place the lack on top of this ledge and screw it in from beneath the wood board.

Thread the two screws that came with your lack shelf into the bottom of the shelf and into the each side of the wall bracket and tighten with a philips screwdriver. That s 36kg about 80lbs just sitting there near the edge. My wall is primarily drywall. But it holds 24x 1 5litre bottles of water easily.
