4 Installing Fixed and Corner Shelves

In this video we explain how to install corner shelves and fixed shelves. The one thing to keep in mind when installing corner shelves is to make sure you have installed the corner gable on the correct wall. When installing the top fixed shelf, the best practice is to lift the shelf over the gable so you can bring it down into place.

Caution: Make sure to tighten the cam fitting right away, while holding the shelf with one hand, to ensure it doesn’t fall. A falling shelf will cause dame and sever injury!

Although it was not shown in the video, once you install all the top fixed shelves, and before installing any of the lower shelves, adjust the suspension brackets to level the cabinets and then tighten so the gables and shelves are tight to the wall. Just be careful not to overtighten as this can bend the rail and cap away from the wall. Placing your fingers behind the rail, while snugging the gable towards the wall, you can feel when the rail just starts to pull away. Stop at this point and don’t overtighten!
