Installation Steps
PLEASE NOTE
: A 3/32 in. hole is required to be pre-drilled into the
ventilated wood shelf in every circumstance where screws are installed
through the ExpressShelf Hardware and into the ventilated wood shelf.
STEP 1 - Measure
STEP 4 - Measure and Cut Shelf to Size
STEP 2 - Install the Backwall Channel
Measure corner to corner, and determine the desired height for
each shelf. The backwall channel width should equal the wall
measurment. The shelf width should be 5/8 in. to 1 in. (15.88
to 25.4 mm) shorter than the wall and backwall channel.
Locate your cut on the shelf. Adjust your cut points to avoid deck
slats. You may need to cut the shelf at two different points.
Do not cut along the deck slat.
STEP 3 - Install Sidewall Brackets
Slide edge or sidewall bracket into alignment with end of
backwall channel at the return wall. Secure sidewall brackets
using easy anchors and screws.
For stud mount:
Level the backwall channel and fasten with
appropriate screws directly into studs every 16 in. including
the end slots using Easy Anchors and 1-1/4 in. wood screws
if necessary.
For drywall mount:
Level the backwall channel and mark easy
anchor locations every 10 in. - 12 in. including end slots. Drill
pilot holes as needed using sharp bit; but do not punch. Install
drywall easy anchors into holes. Secure the channel through
the channel slots with screws into the anchors.
STEP 5 - Install Shelf
Slide the back pre-grooved section of the ventilated wood shelf
into the backwall channel so it fits securely all the way back into
the channel.
