Shelf joiners attached to one shelf.

Shelf screws.

Shelf joiners.

Step 6 Install shelf pins by placing one as close as

possible to the front of the bracket outline, by gently

tapping into place. Place a second shelf pin at the

back of the bracket outline 1/2”/10 mm from the back

of the shelf and tap into place. Repeat for all shelves

requiring shelf pins (Fig. F).

If joining shelves, use a 1/8”/3mm drill bit to drill

holes for each screw marked for the shelf joiners.

Begin with the first shelf on the row and use

1/2”/10 mm screws to attach one side of each shelf

soiner to a shelf. Do not attach the other side of the

shelf joiner to the next shelf at this time (Fig. G).

If using shelf screws, take a bracket out of a wall-

band to use as a guide. Place the bracket over each

bracket outline on the shelf and use an awl (or simi-

lar pointed tool) to punch a mark for screws through

each hole in the bracket. Be sure to keep the awl

straight. Remove the bracket and use a 1/8”/3 mm

drill bit to drill a hole at each punch mark.

Step 7 Place the shelf on the brackets by putting the

front shelf pin(s) into the bracket. Gently push the

back of the shelf into position. The front shelf pin(s)

will push against the front of the bracket holding it in

place (Fig. H).

If joining shelves, position the shelf on the brack-

et by putting the front shelf joiner into the bracket.

Gently push the back of the shelf into position. The

front shelf joiner will push against the front of the

bracket holding it in place (Fig. H). Place the next shelf

in the row over the bracket and shelf joiner. Continue

until you have all shelves on the row in place. Align

the holes in the shelves with the corresponding

shelf joiner holes and insert the 1/2”/10 mm screws.

Tighten each screw.

If using shelf screws, place the shelf on the bracket

and align the holes in the shelf with the correspon-

ding shelf bracket holes. Insert a 1-1/4”/30 mm

screw in the front hole and a 2”/50 mm screw in the

back hole of each bracket tighten each screw (Fig. I).

Note: A combination of the above methods may be

used to attach shelves to brackets.

Step 8 After installing the row of shelving closest

to the middle, repeat for each row of shelves. Start

at the top and work down to allow for easier access

when inserting hardware into the bottoms of the

shelves.
