How to Choose the Right Shelf Bracket Size

A shelf bracket should typically support two-thirds to three-quarters of the shelf depth.​

Example:

Shelf depth                      Recommended bracket

8" shelf                                              6" bracket

10" shelf                                          7–8" bracket

12" shelf                                        8–10" bracket

14" shelf                                       10–12" bracket

How Far Apart Should Shelf Brackets Be

For most installations:

• 16–30 inches apart is standard spacing
• align brackets with wall studs when possible

Example:

Shelf length                      Number of brackets

24" shelf                                              2 brackets

36" shelf                                          2–3 brackets

48" shelf                                             3 brackets

60" shelf                                         3-4 brackets
