Shelf Brackets

A shelf bracket is the fundamental support that carries a shelf from a wall, and choosing the right bracket for the load, the wall type, and the visual style of the room is the most important decision in any shelving installation. At the DIY Hardware Store, our shelf brackets range covers the plain steel, reinforced, mitred, London-style, scroll, and specialist brackets used across domestic shelving projects in every room.

For general domestic shelving, reinforced shelf brackets in white or silver provide maximum strength from a compact section - the gusset across the inner angle stiffens the bracket and prevents it from deflecting under load. Mitred brackets have a diagonal brace cut at 45 degrees for a cleaner aesthetic. London brackets (also known as keyhole brackets) attach to keyhole slots on a wall-fixed batten, allowing shelves to be lifted off and repositioned without disturbing the wall fixing.

Radiator shelf brackets are also available for fitting shelves above radiators. All brackets at the DIY Hardware Store are available in multiple sizes to suit shelf depths from 100mm to 300mm.
