FIXED MOUNT INSTALLATION TIPS

1. SHELF INSTALLATION

There are three ways to install a shelf: Wall-to-Wall, Wall-to-Open,

Open-to-Open. Shelves are supported by wall clips and support

brackets or support poles. When a shelf is attached to a side wall,

a wall bracket is also used.

Choose the right hardware based on the length of the shelf and

whether or not it attaches to a side wall.

2. USE THE RIGHT HARDWARE

Drywall

- Use ClosetMaid hardware with attached anchor in drywall

that is 5/8 in. thick or less. Drill 1/4 in. hole, insert hardware, and push

in pin using the blunt end of a hammer or screwdriver. Punching the

holes in the wall or drilling oversized holes will result in a weakened

installation. Hammering pins into the wall can result in broken

hardware.

Wood studs - Cut attached anchor off of ClosetMaid hardware and

secure to the wall using a #8 x 1 in. screw into the stud.

Concrete (all) and plaster or drywall (over 5/8 in. thick) - Drill 1/4

in. hole, insert hardware with attached anchor, and secure to the wall

using a #8 x 1 in. screw.

3. END CAPS

Add caps to every exposed wire on both ends of each shelf and to

the ends of closet rods. End caps protect you, your clothing and the

shelving materials.

5. MEASURING AND CUTTING SHELVES AND HANGER BARS

Wire shelving can be cut using a bolt cutter or hacksaw. Hanger bars

can be cut using a pipe cutter.

4. CORNERS

Butt shelves (A). Be sure to allow for the width of the full length shelf

when calculating the size of the other shelf. Use a corner support to

connect the two shelves. Use a corner hanger bar to connect hanger

bars and allow clothes to slide around corners. Or use a corner kit (B)

that includes a specially designed corner shelf, corner hanger bar, and

all installation hardware.

NOTE: Hanger bar supports should be placed where hanger bars join.

6. USING 16 IN. SHELVING

16 in. shelving provides additional storage capacity. It is especially good

for storage of linens or boxes and as shoe shelving. Hanger Bars can

be installed using 16 in. shelving. When using 16 in. shelving to hang

clothes, be sure to use 12 in. support brackets as shown so the shelf is

supported properly and hangers can slide unobstructed.
