Homebase Floating Shelf - Light Oak Effect - Brown

The type of fixings depends on your wall. For plasterboard, use heavy-duty plasterboard anchors or toggle bolts. For masonry (brick or concrete), use appropriate masonry wall plugs and screws. Always check the weight rating of the fixings.

The product description does not specify an exact weight limit. However, as a floating shelf, it is designed for decorative items and lighter storage. Always distribute weight evenly and avoid overloading to ensure stability.

It is not recommended to cut the shelves, as this will expose the internal construction and may compromise their structural integrity and the finish.

The product description mentions concealed fixings but does not explicitly state if screws and wall plugs are included. It is advisable to purchase appropriate fixings for your wall type separately.

Each shelf has a depth of 24cm.

No, the finish is a 'light oak effect', meaning it is a manufactured material with a printed or laminated surface designed to resemble light oak wood.

Carefully remove the shelf and re-mark the mounting points, ensuring they are perfectly horizontal using a spirit level before re-drilling and re-mounting.

Check that the wall fixings are fully tightened into the wall. If using plasterboard, ensure you are using appropriate fixings like heavy-duty plasterboard anchors or screwing into wall studs. Re-evaluate the weight load on the shelf.

Ensure the pilot holes drilled in the wall are the correct size for the wall plugs being used. Make sure the wall plugs are fully inserted into the wall before attempting to attach the shelf.

This can sometimes happen if the wall is not perfectly flat or if the fixings are not fully seated. Ensure the mounting bracket is flush against the wall and that the shelf is pushed fully onto the bracket.
