Product Information

Full details

The IANPAV Concealed Shelf Bracket is designed for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts seeking a clean, modern aesthetic for their shelving. Its key benefit is the creation of a true floating shelf effect, hiding all visible fixings. A potential caveat is that optimal weight capacity relies on secure wall mounting and solid wall material.

FAQs

What is the maximum weight this bracket can support?

The bracket can support loads of up to 15kg when mounted securely into a solid wall. This capacity may be reduced if installed in less dense wall materials or without proper anchoring.

What size shelf can I use with this bracket?

The bracket has a 120mm (approx. 4.7 inches) support arm. You will need a wooden shelf with a corresponding pre-drilled hole to accommodate the 12mm diameter shaft and this arm length.

Can I install this bracket on a plasterboard wall?

For optimal strength and safety, this bracket is best installed into solid walls. If installing on plasterboard, use appropriate heavy-duty plasterboard anchors or mount to wall studs/furring strips.

What tools are required for installation?

You will need a drill to create the mounting hole and a hexagonal key (often included or a standard size) to tighten the bracket and expand the wall plug.

How do I achieve the 'floating' effect?

The bracket's design completely conceals the mounting mechanism behind the shelf once installed, creating the illusion of the shelf floating on the wall.

What is the diameter of the bracket shaft?

The bracket shaft has a diameter of 12mm.

What is the length of the mounting dowel?

The mounting dowel is 75mm long, designed to anchor securely within the wall.

Troubleshooting

Bracket feels loose after installation.

Ensure the hexagonal key was turned sufficiently clockwise to fully expand the internal wall plug. If mounted into a hollow wall, ensure appropriate anchors were used and are secure.

Shelf sags or appears unstable.

Verify the weight of the items on the shelf does not exceed the 15kg limit. Confirm the bracket is securely fixed to a solid wall. Consider using multiple brackets for longer shelves.

Difficulty inserting the bracket into the wall.

Ensure the drilled hole is the correct size and depth as specified by the bracket's dimensions. Clear any debris from the hole.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Achieves a modern, minimalist floating shelf appearance.
  • Durable steel construction ensures longevity.
  • Maximizes wall space by eliminating visible supports.
  • Simple installation process for a secure fit.
  • Versatile for various room types and challenging spaces.

Cons

  • Requires drilling into the wall for installation.
  • Maximum weight capacity depends heavily on wall type and mounting quality.
  • Not suitable for mounting directly into plasterboard without additional wall anchors.
  • Shelf material must be compatible with the support arm diameter.
  • Specific hexagonal key required for installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Determine the desired shelf position on the wall.
  2. Drill a hole in the wall matching the diameter of the 12mm bracket shaft and the 75mm mounting dowel.
  3. Insert the bracket into the drilled hole.
  4. Using a hexagonal key, turn the bracket clockwise. This action expands the internal wall plug, securing the bracket firmly.
  5. Slide your wooden shelf onto the 120mm support arm.

Compatibility:

  • Requires a wooden shelf with a pre-drilled hole that accommodates the 12mm diameter shaft and the 120mm support arm.
  • Designed for mounting into solid wall materials (e.g., brick, concrete, solid wood) for maximum load-bearing capacity.
  • Not recommended for direct mounting into plasterboard without appropriate heavy-duty wall anchors or furring strips.

Care:

  • Clean with a soft, damp cloth.
  • Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
