FAQs

What type of mounting hardware should I use?

The shelf does not include mounting hardware. You will need to purchase screws and wall anchors appropriate for your specific wall type (drywall, plaster, concrete, etc.) and the shelf's weight. For best results and heavy loads, use hardware designed for wall studs.

Will my shelf look exactly like the picture?

No, each shelf is handmade with a live edge, meaning natural variations in knots, cracks, grain, and color tones are present. Each piece is unique.

What is the maximum weight capacity of the shelf?

The maximum weight capacity is 40 kg, provided it is securely mounted according to instructions.

Can I use this shelf outdoors?

This shelf is designed for indoor use only. Exposure to outdoor elements can damage the wood and finish.

How do I clean and maintain the shelf?

Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals. Periodically check mounting hardware.

Is the dark brown finish sealed or can I re-stain it?

The shelf has been treated with a dark paint and is ready for use. While it's possible to re-stain or finish over it, this is not recommended as it may affect the natural character and could void any applicable warranty.

What are the exact dimensions of the shelf?

The overall dimensions are approximately 100 cm (L) x 50 cm (W) x (2-6) cm (T). The thickness varies slightly due to the natural shape of the wood.

Troubleshooting

Shelf appears uneven or wobbly after mounting.

Re-check the mounting hardware and ensure all screws are tightened securely. Verify that the wall anchors are properly seated and suitable for the wall type. If mounting into studs, ensure the brackets are aligned correctly.

Visible imperfections not matching expected appearance.

This is expected due to the handmade nature and live edge design. Each shelf has unique variations in knots, cracks, and grain. If the imperfections are structural or significantly deviate from what's considered natural wood character, contact customer support.

Weight capacity seems lower than advertised.

Ensure the shelf is mounted correctly with appropriate hardware. The stated maximum load capacity (40 kg) assumes secure mounting into wall studs or solid wall material. Overloading or improper mounting can reduce effective capacity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Gather Mounting Hardware: The shelf does not come with mounting hardware. You will need appropriate screws and wall anchors suitable for your wall type (e.g., drywall, plaster, brick) and the shelf's substantial weight. Consult a professional if unsure.
  2. Locate Studs: For maximum stability, it is highly recommended to mount the shelf into wall studs. Use a stud finder to locate them.
  3. Mark and Drill: Measure and mark the desired location on the wall. Ensure the marks are level. Drill pilot holes.
  4. Attach Brackets (if applicable): If using separate floating shelf brackets, attach them to the wall following their specific instructions.
  5. Mount Shelf: Securely attach the shelf to the wall using the appropriate hardware and brackets, ensuring it is firmly in place and can support the intended load.

Compatibility:

  • Wall Types: Compatible with most standard wall types, provided the correct mounting hardware and techniques are used. Prioritize mounting into studs for heavy loads.
  • Indoor Use: Designed for indoor use in various rooms.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the wood finish.
  • Maintenance: Periodically check the mounting hardware to ensure the shelf remains securely attached. Avoid exposing the wood to excessive moisture or direct sunlight, which can cause warping or fading.
