Floating shelving would be fine for lighter objects. If you want to put heavier objects on the shelves then regular shelves are recommended because they are more sturdy.

How are floating shelves usually secured to a wall?

Floating shelves usually come with mounting hardware to secure the shelves to a wall. This hardware attaches to a place in the wall that has a stud underneath, and the stud supports the weight of the floating shelves.


How To Use Floating Shelves?

When you need to add shelving, consider installing floating shelves. These shelves look as though they are floating on the wall. This gives your room a sleek and modern look. They can be used for displaying souvenir items, books or your favorite collection. These shelves are a popular way to display a television. There are many designs found online that will give you decorating ideas. You can also visit your local home improvement store for more decorating ideas. Decide what items you want to display and the size you need. You can also hire the work done by a professional.The hardware you use with the floating shelves will determine how they hold up to weight. If you are placing lightweight items on the shelves, this won't be a problem. However, if you are using heavy items on the shelves, the hardware must be strong enough to hold them. Floating shelf brackets must be installed using specific hardware made just for floating shelves. There are two choices when it comes to these types of shelves. You can choose wood or glass. If you are installing the shelves yourself, then choose wood because glass is more difficult to install.Another important consideration is the wall studs inside your walls. Use a wall stud locator and mount the shelves in this area. This will ensure the shelving hardware will not come loose. You can also use molly bolts if you don't have the appropriate wall studs in the location. Molly bolts work by expanding once they are inserted into the walls. The problem with molly bolts is that they don't come out of the wall easily. If you must use them, take care to choose a location where you won't change your mind.Bathroom accessories can be conveniently placed on floating shelves. If you have a small bathroom, this can make the room appear larger. There are many ways floating shelves can improve the look of your home. Organize your home's closets by placing shelves inside to hold shoes, bags and other accessories. They are easy to install and you can choose from hundreds of designs and colors.

Where can I get tips on getting and keeping a garage organized and safe?

We organized ours with large built in cabinets. You can purchase the cabinets at your local Home Depot or Lowes or something like that. Some Home Improvement stores also give free weekend work shops. I would check at your local store and see if they have any upcoming classes to assist you in the building of the shelves. They are pretty easy. If you have small children I would put the dangerous things on the top shelves and perhaps add a lock to the outside of the cabinet.My favorite thing about our garage is our Garage Door. It has a safety light that goes across the bottom so that if something is in the way when its closing it will automatically return to the top!
