Different types of shelving
- Fixed bracket wall shelving is the most common type of shelving, and the safest as the shelves are fixed to the wall using brackets.
- Floating shelves have no visible support and give the appearance that they are suspended on their own.
- Built-in shelving is shelves that are built into an existing alcove, using existing walls as support.
- Free-standing shelves are shelves that are supported by themselves, often as bookshelves.
- Ladder shelves are propped against the wall and are often decorative. Ladder shelves resemble a ladder in their construction.
- Hanging wall shelves, as the name suggests, are shelves suspended on pipes, ropes, or other forms of support. They instantly add dramatic flair to a room.
Types of shelving materials
- When considering shelves it helps to know what you plan on using the shelves for.
- Different loads will require different strength shelving.
- A light load can be considered to be vases, small plants or trinkets.
- A medium load can be considered to be a shelf full of average-sized paperback books.
- A heavy load can be considered to be large plants and hardcover books.
- Timber is strong and can be found in a variety of different sizes.
- Timber is easy to work with and can be finished in a variety of ways.
- Laminated chipboard is typically used in flat-packed furniture, and although it is cheaper than timber, it is definitely not as strong.
- Glass is an attractive option but only suitable for lighter loads.
- Special brackets need to be used for glass shelving.
- There are many more materials used for shelving, but these mentioned are the most common.
