FAQs

What is the weight capacity of the shelf?

The weight capacity depends heavily on the type of wall and the fixings used. For solid walls with appropriate heavy-duty fixings, it can support a significant load. Always ensure fixings are rated for the intended weight.

Does the shelf come with mounting hardware?

The shelf itself does not typically include wall mounting hardware (screws and wall plugs), as these need to be suitable for your specific wall type. Please purchase appropriate fixings separately.

Can I cut the shelf to a different size?

While possible, cutting solid wood can be challenging and may affect the finish and structural integrity. It is recommended to purchase a size that fits your needs or consider one of the other available sizes.

How should I care for the Teak finish?

Wipe clean with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. For deeper cleaning, a wood-specific cleaner can be used sparingly.

Is this shelf suitable for outdoor use?

No, this shelf is designed for indoor use only. Exposure to weather and moisture will damage the solid wood.

What makes this shelf 'rustic'?

The 'rustic' nature comes from the solid wood construction, the chunky profile, and the natural characteristics of the pine, such as visible grain and potential small knots, which are part of its handmade charm.

How is the wood sourced?

The solid pine is sourced from high-quality, sustainable sawmills across Europe, ensuring responsible forestry practices.

Troubleshooting

Shelf is not level

Loosen mounting screws slightly, adjust the shelf to level using a spirit level, and re-tighten screws firmly.

Shelf feels wobbly or unstable

Ensure all mounting screws are fully tightened into secure wall fixings. Verify that the correct type of wall fixings for your wall material have been used.

Wood shows minor imperfections

This is characteristic of handmade solid wood products. Minor variations in grain or small knots are normal and add to the shelf's unique charm. If significant damage is present, contact customer support.

Difficulty inserting mounting hardware

Ensure you are using hardware appropriate for your wall type. For brick or concrete, a hammer drill may be necessary. For wood studs, pilot holes can ease insertion.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Authentic solid wood construction for a premium feel.
  • Handmade quality with unique character.
  • Rustic aesthetic enhances natural home decor.
  • Sustainable wood sourcing aligns with eco-conscious values.
  • Floating design offers a sleek, modern display option.

Cons

  • Solid wood may react to significant humidity or temperature fluctuations.
  • Requires proper wall mounting for safety and stability.
  • Natural wood grain variations mean no two shelves are identical.
  • Can be heavier than composite material shelves, requiring stronger fixings.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Gather Tools: You will need a drill, level, pencil, screwdriver, and appropriate wall fixings (screws and wall plugs suitable for your wall type – not included).
  2. Mark Position: Hold the shelf or its mounting bracket against the wall at the desired height. Use a level to ensure it is straight, and mark the drilling points with a pencil.
  3. Drill Holes: Drill holes at the marked points. Insert appropriate wall plugs if needed.
  4. Attach Bracket: Secure the mounting bracket to the wall using screws.
  5. Mount Shelf: Slide the shelf onto the bracket, ensuring it is securely seated.

Compatibility:

This shelf is designed for mounting onto solid walls (e.g., brick, concrete, solid wood studs). For plasterboard or hollow walls, use specialized fixings and ensure the shelf's weight capacity is not exceeded. It is compatible with standard wall types when appropriate fixings are used.

Care:

  • Clean with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture.
  • Periodically check that mounting fixings remain secure.
  • Protect from direct sunlight and extreme temperature fluctuations to prevent warping or cracking.
