> 24 hourVery good instructions and all parts are quality! Easy and quick to install using an impact power tool. Great mounting template. The level sucks as it is too small, so I just used my own level.

> 24 hourWe put these up in our garage for overflow storage. These are wire shelves, not for little items that might fall through. Very, very study. We bolted them right into the studs, even though some shelves cantilever as much as 20 inches. They can do that, they are so strong. Be aware, the shelves are 3 feet in length, so the package which is described as 2 x 6 is actually 4 x 3. The mounting bolts are big enough to develop support for the shelf weight capacity. The socket set you have for your drill may not already have a socket big enough to fit these bolts. There are clever velcro strips included to affix the wire shelves to the brackets, so they dont slide sideways.

> 24 hourSupposed to include a template for mounting. It didn’t. Would have made it easier.

> 24 hourI purchased a 12”x36” shelving set to use on my garage wall. The set came with 4 shelves and 8 brackets. This allows for some flexibility in layout. I decided to build two 6’ sections. The brackets are heavy duty as is the wire mesh shelf, a step or two heavier than traditional white wire shelving you’d see in a closet. I had a few dislikes. Per the instructions, the brackets are to be mounted on wall studs for maximum sturdiness. My garage wall studs were 16” on center. Since each shelf section is 36” with 2 brackets, this made for an awkward spacing. I had to choose between spacing the brackets 32” apart, leaving a weak spot in the middle, or 16” apart, leaving large overhangs on either side. The instructional videos I watched all seemed to use 16”, so that’s what I built. The kit comes with 3” lag bolts, 3 per bracket. Overkill maybe? It’s a good amount of work to wrench these large bolts into the wall. The wire shelves have 2 ½” x 4” openings. Small items such as spray cans or oil bottles will fall through. I had to order plastic shelf lining to make it usable. The kit came with Velcro straps to hold the shelves in place on the bracket. These straps just don’t work as intended. I’ll buy some white zip ties instead. All in all, I like the sturdiness but probably would have used lightweight wire shelving instead.

> 24 hourLove these! When you measure, ideally note where studs are first to see how many you can accommodate. As others noted, a standard drill or screwdriver wont work with these bolts so you will need a lug nut and drill adapter or lug nut and socket wrench.

> 24 hourI got these to replace the cheap ones that were already in my garage. Im turning my garage into a home gym and I wanted durability as well attractive. These fit the bill nicely. I would give 5 stars except that they should come with some type of rubber or plastic layover. Theyre not good for storing smaller items like spray paint cans or boxes of screws. I had to get different shelves for that but other than that minor thing.....these were definitely built to last!

> 24 hourBreaks down into (4) heavy duty 3L x 1 D shelves. I used these in my electronics lab and just place a thin particle board to cover the mesh for the scopes, meters, waveform generators, and other tools to sit on. They can hold a quite of weight as they use decent sized sheet rock anchors. Good product.

> 24 hourLike just about everything there is about these shelves. Super easy to install and very strong. Only complaint is they come with flimsy Velcro hold down but that is easy to over- look
