Thank you! I just got my first tool set and am learning how to do all the things I want to do to my home!

Drilling holes into the bracket so that you can have this supported by the studs is a fantastic idea!! Thank you for that tip.

Just installed mine and had to make sure I did it correctly! 😂
Thank you for a really clean and easy to follow tutorial!

@fixthishouse what size screws are used under the shelf to anchor to the bracket? Did you use a sheet metal screw?

[westernsharpie]

Nice video sir, but as a painter to all the folks out there planning on mounting these, don't use long lead pencil lines on your drywall/painted finish. Very hard to come out without ruining the paint.

Awesome thank you! This was incredibly helpful. My pack came with only TWO screws -.- i had to look all over my crib to find wall screws. This lack should supply at least 4 more screws and the wall anchors smh.

Can I use any Ikea floating shelves for this hack or is it supposed to be the one that you shared with the link above?

[ricksandoval]

I thank you for taking the time to create this tutorial, I recently purchased two Ikea Lack shelves and was not certain if I could drill in to the studs or not. I am a beginner in these home projects, so I hope I can do this correctly.

[rachaelmt]

Thank you. I learned something new.
I googled stud finder when I heard you mention it and learned something very important
Wow. Thank you

[DodgyD]

So you're using plugs into the studs. Can you just go straight into the studs with the screws?

[sineadconnolly]

V clear and well explained. Well timed and excellent visuals. Well done 👏

I’m considering to install these types of shelves above my desk. I didn’t realize they come with brackets since IKEA always sells parts separately. Great tips! Thank you!

[jennyjenny]

Does anyone know what screws were used.

[veryyyaquarius]

Moving into my first place without my dad near by to help. 😭😅 thanks for this vid very helpful

[kevkpopfancam]

is there suppose to be a gap between the wall and shelf? @ 4:19

[AlejandraReyes-ke]

Hello!
If I’m only thinking about using the studs, should I only use the screws without the anchors? Or is it better to use the anchors on the drywall only + the screws in the studs?

[GladysAzito]

I truely like yr video. But i was hopeing you could help me with the screw n screw size since i had purchase shelf in a yard sale with out the screws. Could you help me find that answer? Dry wall screws i have but wasnt shure on size n length for screws to connect board with metal poles. Need yr help gladys

[normansigucci]

I’m the worst with anything diy and ur video is so good I feel like buying all these tools and doing this now 😂 thank you for the great video!

If you drill into the stud why would you need to use anchor for the screw to be sturdy it will remain sturdy in the wood. Where hollow drywall needs an anchor in order for the screw to be sturdy. Still a cool tutorial video how you did everything else
