Hello, we have the twin slot uprights, supports and the white metal shelves from your site. Can you please tell us how to fix the metal shelves onto the supports. At the moment the shelves are laying on the supports but not fixed on securely. Thank you.

Hi \r\nI was faced with same situation. I have drilled a 6mm hole through the metal shelf in line with the hole in the bracket ( at the front edge of shelf not the rear edge ). I used M5 x 25mm ultra flat headed machine screws placed from top surface of shelf, through the bracket hole, with a washer and and M5 wing nut. Doing this on both brackets will secure the shelf and prevent it from sliding off the brackets. Being ultra thin- there is only a slight interruption of the shelf surface caused by the flat screw head. The wing nuts allow for easy adjustment, dismantling if necessary without the need for tools. This could be repeated at the back edge of shelf but in my experience not necessary.

all good but a couple of measurements missing!\r\n\r\n1 upright depth please?\r\n\r\n2. Bolt hole size please, m6 etc?\r\n\r\nNeed these as we are fixing to a timberframe building with plasterboard walls 40mm deep before cavity, need to allow for bolt depth inc bolt head & toggle end.\r\n\r\nThank you
Need to know the recommended screw length & gauge & plugs for fixing your twin slot uprights into masonry. Can\'t seem to find these mentioned anywhere. Thanks

Please provide the maximum weight supported by each of the different supports?
