I have a niche like that in a hallway, only wider and no door. I decided to make it an area with shelves where towels, linens, and other sundries would be artfully stored. I devised this method with one addition. My shelves are both deeper and longer, so I added two supports, one at either end of each shelf, 2” back from the front of the shelves, sticking out of the walls 1/2”. I cut channels into either end of the shelves stoping just short of the front end of the shelves. When the shelves are pushed into place as you showed, those short supports at either end slide into the hidden channels and ultimately provide some side and front support. I used 1” thick hardwood shelves. Excellent video! 👍🏻
@HallbeamDesign11 ай бұрын
Sound really nice! Side support is very nice for deeper shelves, when you are able to do so. I want to try using a very thick (1 1/2 - 2 inch) shelf with this method in my livingroom. Probably have to use quite thick threaded rods but it will be a nice project. :)

Great video! I too did some floating shelves in our linen closet. Similar to what happened to you, I assumed my closet corners, where the shelves were fitting snuggly into, were square. Unfortunately, they weren't square and required some "persuasion" with a rubber mallet. I also sanded the back edge of the wooden shelf so there wasnt a gap between the floating shelf and back wall in the closet. This DIY is a good one to follow for simplicity and attractive aesthetics. Cheers all!

Take your time making the holes in the concrete 90 degres. Concrete will make these types of shelves even more durable.

@HallbeamDesign Жыл бұрын
They are shallow because of the design for the pantry. There is a glass door and later i will install lights "in the roof" of the pantry. If I had deeper shelves there would only be shadows. It is very possible to make deeper shelves! If you are going to make some of your own i suggest that when you are at the hardware store, you try to get the feel of the different threaded rods. The ones i use are quite thin, but they are durable enough for the shelves. Thicker threaded rods becomes very stiff pretty quick as you go up in diameter of them. Hope this helps!

Thanks for sharing. I am thinking about putting up floating shelves but didn’t want to go the box-build route (I prefer single boards). I’ve seen the anchors that you can route out a space the will allow the board to get flush against the wall, but those anchors are more than I am willing to pay for molded metal. Cutting your own rods is not only less expensive, but might actually be stronger. Not only that, but you get to choose where the rods go, as opposed to something pre-fabricated.. The issue I see that would come up with me would be drilling the threaded rods into the studs. I picture that as not going smoothly for me. Have you considered using a threaded socket bit on your driver? I might try that when I get around to building these. Thanks for teaching me your method!
@HallbeamDesign11 ай бұрын
Actually it is very easy to insert a piece of threaded rod into a stud. Wood is soft enough that you dont need to create threads in the studs. The holes in the studs only need to be a little bit smaller then the threaded rod. The threads in the rod will grip the wood perfectly when you do this. Threaded rods are probably the most durable way of installing floating shelves.

Thanks for thisl I'm about to start building exactly the same type of floating shelf. Do you find the rods bend and the shelf sags a bit under the weight of the load on the shelf? Would it be worth it to have the rods angled slightly upwards by a degree or two so that when loaded they deflect to the horizontal?
@HallbeamDesign Жыл бұрын
Short answer: no they don't bend Long answer: these shelves are in a pantry, which means they won't have such heavy things on them (max 15kg) the shelves are still completely straight 1 month later and he has no tendency to bend :) The shelves in this video are quite thin so it is difficult to use thicker threaded rods in this case. If you have thicker shelves, you can use thicker threaded rods. Which means you can have a lot more weight on them (100kg+)

Hey thanks for the video, working on a set of shelves that are similar in design. I'm planning on using rods but my wall is concrete, any suggestions on how to insert them/set them into a concrete wall? Thanks again for the great video.
@HallbeamDesign Жыл бұрын
Long answer but stay with me :) Your shelves will become practically indestructible. 1. The most important thing is to make sure that you drill the hole in the wall at exactly 90°, which is more difficult with a large hammer drill. However, you have a huge advantage with concrete and that is that if you happen to make a mistake, you can always just move the hole a little bit to the side (as the holes will be hidden by the shelf) 2. To attach them to the wall you have a few different options. 2.1 Standard screw plug that is adapted for the threaded rods (then you can also unscrew them later if you want to move them) 2.2 Chemical glass inserts that break when you screw them in and solidify / harden and thus fix all the threaded rods in the wall (once they have solidified you will never get them out again and will have to use an angle grinder to remove them) 2.3 (Best one) Just drill the hole in just the right diameter and vacuum the hole afterwards. then you just screw in the threaded rods exactly as I do in the video and the friction will hold the shelf. (they will be quite easy to remove and will fit tight enough) 3. Use a proper drill with a proper drill bit made for concrete :) Hope this helps you and enjoy your build!

Anchors or molly will indeed not be as sturdy as this option. Metal studs are often formed with a "U" shape which (If they are positioned in the right way) will make it posible to drill two (2) holes --->U (from this direction) If they are positioned in this way there is not much difference compared to my video. You'll just have to use a drill bit made for steel insead of a one made for hardwood. This option will also be very sturdy. If they are not positioned right, I myself would try to make these in another way.

It is, at least for a noob like myself, a tricky project every time you want to put something heavy on the wall. Let me sammarize to make sure I have understood you correctly. Assuming the spacing between the metal studs is correct: 1. find out and mark the position of the metal studs on the drywall 2. find a suitable bracket with two or more "long pins" that will hold the shelf up. Similar to this->? ___|_________|___ 3. drill holes through the drywall and the metal studs and install the mollys there 4. fasten the bracket in the mollys 5. install the shelf on/in the bracket. The pins will go into the pre-drilled holes in the shelf Phew...See, I told you it is a project. 😅

I always answer all my comments! Drywall is really good, and i agree that it's much more practical if there are wooden studs behind. Exactly! On step 2 i would use threaded rods. With a diameter 1mm or 2mm wider than the holes you drill. Personaly i have not tried threaded rods inserted into metal studs. I can try it for you in a few days after i have been to the store, as i'm also interested in this :) Hope this helps :)

It's easier than it looks! Most important is to make sure the threaded rods are 90° (drill the hole a little bit smaller than the rod) And that the hole in the shelves are 90° You deserve it!

My walls are never square so in a nook like this, my shelf would be up to 1/2 inch wider at the front side, making these type shelves more difficult for old DIYer who only has a circular saw, a measure tape & cordless drill. I have 2 stud finders that never find studs.
@HallbeamDesign9 ай бұрын
It is possible make this with just a circular saw! I will take a little bit longer and you need something to use as a guide for the circular saw. It is not visible in the video buy the sides of the pantry are not square either. About 5/16 difference.

@@HallbeamDesign For small jobs, a battery powerd grinder is more than fine, but these things are power hungry and you will drain you battery very quick. Even if you are using 3.5ah and bigger ones. For bigger stuff (lots of grinding and/or cutting), I would keep a beefy corded one like a Bosch blue, or Flex. It is like when I'm using my big Bosch blue hammer drill for drilling into concrete. So much more power, than my battery one. Same deal with my grinder.

I am surprised there is no play. Very cool, i will have to try this out. Are you using a 5/16 drill bit and a 5/16th threaded rod? Or is your drill bit a touch smaller i would assume
@HallbeamDesign Жыл бұрын
I drill it a "touch" smaller (15/64th) the studs. The shelves I drill in the same dimension (5/16th or 8mm) as the threaded rods. The threads are gripping the wood perfectly when doing it this way. I will soon make some thicker floating shelves with the same techniqe. But with thicker rods. Good luck with your build! :)

What if the wall is dry wall?
@HallbeamDesign Жыл бұрын
This is drywall :) drywall always has studs behind it with regular measurements of either 45cm or 60 cm for the wall to be robust If you make a very short shelf, you probably won't be able to screw in at least two studs. Then you have to do it in a different way. If you want to install these kind of floating shelves i reccomend checking the wall first with a "stud detector" Hope this helps :) Thank you for your comment!

At first glance it might look like that. But they are only held up by the threaded rods into the studs behind the wall.

Yes! You don't need expensive tools to create things. As I show in this video. Some people does not even have the cheap tools i use in this video. I think that most people does only see the cost of things and does not "see" what they can create things with the tools. I think people also do not take care of themselves enough, as they are worried about money etc. Cheap tools will enable you to create nice things you can't afford otherwise.
