Frequently Asked Questions


Q: What makes Creative Connector shelves and shelf brackets different from other shelving on the market?
A. Our system employs a Patented slide and slot method of mounting. No screws, connectors, or tracks are visible. As the shelf is locked to the shelf bracket and the shelf bracket is locked to the wall, a very strong and rigid shelving system results.

Q: How much weight will the shelf brackets support?
A. Into studs, our shelf brackets will support up to 75 pounds per bracket.

Q: How can the corner shelves maintain a load of 50 pounds without studs or brackets?
A. Our patented connecting system is designed to distribute the load across the entire edge of both wall mounted surfaces and in turn, through a large surface area of both walls.

Q: Where are the brackets for the corner shelves?
Our corner shelves do not require any shelf brackets. Corner shelves are packaged with our patented invisible mount connectors resulting in no visible means of support. All hardware is included.

Q: Why does the shelf bracket not fall off of the connector when it is slid up from the bottom?
The shelf and its connector are the locking components of the system. The shelf bracket is slid up the wall connector, and the shelf is inserted into the bracket. Once the shelf is slid back and down, the downward weight of the shelf locks the entire shelving system together.

Q: What is the connector made of?
Our connectors are manufactured from high quality poplar wood.

Q: What colors are available?
Our products are available in White, Maple and Walnut Melamine. The Melamine surface requires no further finishing.

Q: How far apart should the shelf brackets be placed?
Consider the amount of weight the shelf is to hold. Our shelf brackets will support 75 pounds each when mounted into studs.

Q: How do you mount a corner shelf in a corner that is not square?
A small washer or washers may be used as a shim behind the right connector but use no more than 1/4” of spacers. Alternatively, you may plane or sand the left side of the corner shelf: removing up to ¼ inch from the left side.

Q: Are your products ready to use out of the box?
We have specifically designed our shelves for ease of use - see our installation video to see for yourself.

Q: How much weight will the Organizer shelves hold?
