An Ultrashelf bracket can hold 50lbs per each wall stud that it’s attached to. So if your bracket is attached to two studs, your shelf can hold 100lbs; three studs can hold 150lbs, and so on.

Our shelves are specially designed to fit onto our innovative bracket. That being said, you can build a shelf using our router and jigs that will fit our bracket. This is a great option if you have a piece of wood that you'd like to turn into a shelf.

Yes. For an additional fee, we can custom stain your shelf with any Minwax stain. We also offer custom paint jobs for any Benjamin Moore or Sherwin-Williams color.

We can cut your shelf to any length from 12" to 90". We are able to cut down to an 1/8" increment to fit your exact space.

To specify an exact length that is more specific than an inch, first round the measurement to next inch and select that inch in the drop down option then enter in the exact length in the box below the drop down. For example, if you need a shelf that is 15-3/8" then select 15" from the drop down option then in the box below the drop down enter 15-3/8".

Our brackets can only support shelves up to 12" deep so if you're only using our included bracket then 12" is the maximum shelf we can offer. We can make a shelf deeper than 12" but you would need to use a different bracket system. If you want us to make a shelf deeper than 12", you can contact us via live chat, email, or phone and discuss potential custom options.

Yes, you can choose custom increments on our website. The length increment allows you to measure your shelf length more specifically. For example, if I want a 24-1/4" shelf, then I would enter 24" for the length and 1/4" for the length increment. If you only need the length measured by the whole inch, then leave the length increment at 0.

While we don’t make corner shelves, you can create and customize your own corner floating shelves with Ultrashelf by using two separate shelves in an L formation.

We recommend spacing your shelves 16-18 inches apart, For kitchens, we recommend a shelf depth of 11-12”. In bathrooms, the recommended depth is 6” and under. 

While recommendations vary on the ideal height, a good rule of thumb is to hang your shelf 18 inches above the counter. 

We recommend attaching your floating shelf bracket to at least one wall stud whenever possible. If needed, the brackets can be attached to the drywall with a high-quality drywall anchor. We typically recommend using toggle bolts.  Please keep in mind, we only guarantee the weight rating when your shelf is attached to studs.

Allow 1 to 2 weeks for production on all floating shelves + 3-5 business days for shipping. We ship from Rigby, Idaho.
