Most Frequently Asked Questions How much weight can my shelf hold?   The weight capacity for each shelf will be different depending on the size and installation. It can range between 40 and 80 lbs. For more complete information refer to the individual product listing. What if I can't hit studs?   Mounting to solid wood blocking or studs will give you the highest weight capacity but we know that it's not always possible to mount to studs, if you can't locate studs or you want to add additional mounting points, we recommend using toggle bolt anchors and screws (example links below). Standard plastic drywall anchors will pull out of the wall and can cause the shelf to lean forward.
