EVALD Heavy Duty Floating Shelf Bracket | 4-Inch Floating Mantel Mount, Blind Shelf Supports, and Anchors | Floating Shelf Hardware for Home and Office Decor | Fireplace Mantel Brackets (4 Pack)

The EVALD heavy-duty floating shelf brackets are excellent! They feel very sturdy and support shelves well without sagging. Installation was straightforward with the included anchors, and the 6-inch size works perfectly for fireplace mantels or home office shelving. Durable, reliable, and a great value for a 4-pack. Highly recommend for anyone looking to mount floating shelves securely.

I am in the process of making a custom built mantel for our fireplace & these brackets should do the job. The previous owner of our house took down the original mantel & replaced it with a 1x4 board and added a silver strip to the face of it. And as far as I can tell it was attached to the brick with brown construction glue & zero hardware...who does this? Anyways, the brackets are solid & should attach & hold the newer 60 pound mantle no problem. The included hardware is nice, but I will also be using some much longer screws to penetrate to the wood studs behind the brick to mount the brackets, along with some toggles for a superior hold. I have purchased this company's brand of brackets before for a smaller floating shelf & they are holding great. When I finish the project, I will be sure to add some additional pictures. If I drill my holes correctly into the mantel, it should slide right on these floating brackets for a seamless effect.

These were perfect for my needs. Made a full face cypress mantel attached to a beam 8 in. Overall dimensions are 7 feet wide, 12 deep. 8 in high and weight is about 200 pounds. I used (4) 8 inch brackets and a horizontal support on the top edge of the brackets. They DID NOT bend nor crank, nor FAIL. I put my additional weight on at one point to install the heavy mantle. A sledge hammer and cussioned 2×4 to bash the mantle in place...and they are indestructible. Will buy again from this vendor when needed.

I feel compelled to give these brackets 3 stars but I will leave it 4. I purchased 16 brackets for the 8 floating shelves I was making. Upon opening all four boxes, I lined up all the brackets and only three were perfectly straight. All the other 13 brackets were way off (see first photo). The ONE silver lining with this, is when I went to install the shelves, I used two brackets that were off in opposite directions which helped apply pressure to the shelf and make it slide on tight. However, the box that the brackets come in state quite clearly on the top that the brackets are "Guaranteed Straight." So I guess that "guarantee" isn't quite true. I wrote their customer support about this and they replied by saying the brackets were "within the accepted tolerance" and also bet me I couldn't find better brackets with a higher tolerance. Not sure I believe that one. Regarding installation, installing the brackets was pretty easy. I was smart and laser cut myself a jig (2nd photo) out of 1/4" MDF to perfectly align the brackets with the holes I drilled in the shelves. I know not everyone has the ability to do this but if you can, I highly recommend it. I just pushed the brackets into the slots, leveled the jig, then marked my holes. Super easy. My shelves were 1 3/8" thick White Oak 24" long and 12" deep. They were quite large and very heavy but the brackets were pretty solid to hold them up. However, the weight of the shelves caused quite a bit of sag in the brackets. To counter this I shoved a piece of cardboard (3rd photo) under the bottom of the bracket and then cut it flush (4th photo). It wasn't perfect, as I mentioned the shelves were quite heavy, but it worked a bit. The drywall anchors that come with the brackets are quite beefy and I liked them a lot. They were very solid. DO drill a 3/8" hole for them as per the instructions.

Great quality. Works perfectly.

Sturdy but not perfectly centered. Some rods needed bent down to fit flush but amazingly sturdy.

Arrived on time. These were purchased to place fireplace mantle legs to a brick fireplace. Instructions were easy to understand and it came with everything needed.

These are great. They came with the type of drywall anchors that actually work and don't just fall out of the walls. Perfect size for 2x6 DIY floating shelves.

Very sturdy and a breeze to install. Worth every penny!

Good quality made. Easy to install and holds up to 100lbs
