.. or anything else
Shelves aren’t just a decorative addition to your home. You’re more likely to install shelves for their functional purpose rather than their ability to brighten up a room. But this doesn’t mean care shouldn’t be taken when hanging shelves. A well-installed shelf should support not only the weight of what they hold but also complement the rest of the decor and furniture.
If you want your shelves installed securely and look good simultaneously, find a shelf-hanging specialist via the Ezy Peazy platform. No matter what type of shelving you’re after – from floating shelves on which to display your knickknacks to wire shelves in your linen cupboard – a shelf-hanging expert will be able to help.
Here are some of the services they provide:
Picking the right spot to hang your shelves is a challenge. You want the placement to look good in the room, but it must also be functional. This means they need to be somewhere you can get to quickly and at the ideal height.
They also need to be hung in a spot with the structure to support the weight of what you’ll put on them – which is likely to be into a wall stud. It would be best if you also were cautious that the hardware used to hang the shelves wouldn’t hit any electrical wires inside the walls.
A shelf-hanging specialist can help you decide the best spot to hang your shelves and consider all these critical factors. They will ensure that you’re left with a shelf that looks great and will stand the test of time.
Once you know where your shelf will be hanging, it’s time to decide what hardware to use. This also depends on critical factors like the size and weight of the shelf. Your solution also depends on whether you own your home or rent.
If you are renting, you may not be permitted to make holes in the wall, so an alternative solution needs to be found. Adhesive strips and tapes may be suitable, but this option depends on the weight of the shelf and what you’re planning on placing on it.
If you can make holes in the wall to insert fastenings, this gives you more options. These include nails and screws that go through the plasterboard into the wall studs and special anchors that can anchor the shelf into the plasterboard.
The shelf-hanging specialist can recommend the best option for the shelf, its placement, and its use.
Before hanging a shelf, the first step is to mark and measure where the shelf needs to go. This will help ensure the shelf is hung at a suitable height for its function. For example, you can easily reach a book or admire what the shelf holds. The marking and measuring process is also crucial if you’re hanging multiple shelves to ensure they’re the proper distance from each other and the arrangement looks good.
Marking and measuring first will also ensure that holes are placed correctly. This means you won’t be left with unsightly patched holes if the positioning isn’t right the first time.
As well as making sure the shelves are installed securely, a shelf hanging specialist will be able to help you install a range of shelf types, including:
Glass shelves are no longer just for the bathroom; they can add a new aesthetic to your home.
Like other shelves, glass shelves come in various styles and sizes. Depending on the look you’re after, they can be mounted using different methods such as special brackets or even left ‘floating’. Tempered glass is a durable material, so they’re a lot more durable than people might think.
However, they must be mounted securely. A shelf-hanging specialist can help, whether for your living room wall or tiled bathroom.
Whether you need a few shelves to display some of your favourite books or want to turn one of your rooms into a home library, you can find a shelf-hanging specialist through Ezy Peazy, that has the necessary skills, experience, and tools.
The shelves you choose can be as simple or extravagant as you wish, depending on your style and requirements. The critical factor remains, however, is that the shelves are secured in a way that holds the weight of all your books.
Floating shelves can add a modern look to any home because you can’t easily see how they’re being held up. They also require special hardware for hanging – especially if they’re designed to hold heavy weight.
Instead of hooks or screws, a hanging shelf will come with a special bracket fastened to the wall and inserted into the shelf. Once the shelf is in place, it’s screwed into the brackets so it doesn’t move. This helps keep it secure and makes it look like it’s floating.
Corner shelves can be tricky to install, as you have two walls. This means you need to take extra care to ensure that the fasteners are installed at the right height on each side, so the shelf stays level.
This is an excellent reason to get an expert shelf installer to help. Once they’ve measured and marked the corner shelf position, they can check the level and make adjustments before drilling holes or putting any screws or brackets in place.
If you’re after a functional and cost-effective shelf, a wire shelf could be a good option. They’re a great, lightweight way to help organise your garage, wardrobe, or linen closet.
It’s crucial to get wire shelves installed straight and secure, so they can hold the weight of your clothes, linen, or whatever you’re storing in your garage or cupboard. As wire shelves tend to be a bit longer, you’ll likely need to secure them to more than one anchor point, especially if they’re going into your closet. Some supports like brackets, tracks, or uprights may help support the shelf.

Hi, looking for someone to fit 3 floating shelves onto a dry wall.
I have a flexi storage 2.4m wardrobe that needs to be mounted to the wall. We have all equipment drills screws and measurements mapped out and measured.. however we ran into a stud in the wall and can’t quite get the initial screws to go all the way through passed the jibbing and I don’t want to continue to DIY and create bigger holes in the wall. If anyone is able to help with this today if possible would be greatly appreciated 🙏🏽
