TLDR: He suggests gluing it to wall and never being able to take it off (for sure people buying IKEA furniture are buying it for life...)
On the next Episode: How to explain your Landlord, that he needs a new wall, when you move out
Next video, how to remove the shelf😂
lol “just glue them to the wall” would’ve sufficed. I imagine my 100 year old plaster walls will hold up well when having to take a crowbar to them to remove these later on
My thoughts exactly!
And how to patch a wall
I think it was an ad for the Multi-use adhesive more than anything else. Has a link for THAT but not the shelf.
Not seen Craig in forever nice video!
That is what I need. A solution for tilted shelf.. Thanks dear
can you use a short level to balance the 74" Lack shelf from the center?
Have you considered mounting it the studs instead of drywall?
What do you call that blue device that he uses to detect if there are any cables behind the drilling spot?
Hi, what kind of sealant can i e for this?
I wonder if you could do something similar with putting sealant in the holes but put some cling film around the brackets to make a removable version🤔
I'd like to see if it wiggles when you try to make it do so. I just installed a large ikea lack shelf. The mount is secure but it's the prongs coming out that are questionable. I want to make sure I've done an OK job. It wiggles a bit
I just mounted a 190cm long one yesterday. I mounted it upside down because the shelf is high up and and I didn't want to be able to see the screws from below. There's a little wiggle though so I was worried it could have had something to do with it being upside down. I guess I'll just leave it as is seeing as the wiggle seems to be a design feature 😂
Here in the states, is multi use like liquid nails?

Nice... But... when you need to take the shelf off. How do you do it?
you can't.. you'll need to rip it off from wall
you don't lol
A stronger way is the longer way to go..

Why wasn't it shown on camera that the shelf was level?
What’s the purpose of drilling the final screw in the middle under the shelf?
LACK shelves have one hole each below, to fix it to the brackets from sliding outwards. For that you have to make sure that those holes in the brackets are facing down while fixing it onto the wall, or you have to fix the brackets all over again.
Great video, Need some advice. I live in an apt. so how do you safely remove the shelf with all that sealant inside?
First step would be to remove the wall
that's the fun part - you dont!
It's permanent after applying that sealant
He only.put the sealant on the area the bracket would touch not the wall
So you don't get to take the shelf down since you more or less glued it to the wall. Also wouldn't you want to try and get at least one of those wall mounts screwed into a wall stud?
It appears this shelf was installed on a concrete or masonry wall. Every one of those holes with plugs would be quite solid.
OK if LACK shelf is a permanent fixture, but not if to be removed at later date. Try inserting 2 @ long plastic wall plug in the hole, add Lack shelf and screws at least it doesn't wiggle and can be removed later.
What diameter to be drilled?
3 inch screws into the studs, why glue it? The shelf will break before the screw or stud does.
Because it starts to lean forward..he was showing how to mount it necessarily but how to keep it from dropping forward.
Very good tip
Many thanks
what's that last screw you screwed in at the end of the video??
Exactly, didn't get that why do you even need to screw there
@@flipside2592 I believe its to secure the shelf in place or else you can just pull out the shelf (if the multi-use was not applied)
The shelf is fixed to the bracket prongs with those screws.
Using adhesive doesn't sound like a good Idea, I fitted one of these, yes there is a small amount of movement, not enough to glue the shelf.
What size screws?
I installed the same IKEA one but mine is sagging. Why is that? Please help thanks
Just get a couple of brackets and put them underneath the Lack shelf. I know it defeats the purpose of the whole "floating shelf" gimmick but at least it makes them a lot safer.
This is a great video except ill never be able to remove this "cheap and cheerful" shelf ...ir have to rip it out!! And if the shelf was damaged and i wanted to replace woth just the shelf, id never be able to.
I put all screws plus plugs in, 5 books on there and it bends like a mf
What size screws???
50mm
And there you have a shelf for aaaaaall your life. Just cut the wall to remove the shelf
Craig!!
thank you
That just trebled the price of the actual shelf... Cheers
Teh dust tip is genius
Just use low tack tape, otherwise you'll risk leaving a sticky residue or damaging the paint
What’s with the foot long drill bit? 🤣🤣
Some like it long 😁
Now try to remove it lmao 😂
