    In this video, I'll show you how I put up some shelves without drilling or nails into walls or studs. By using 3m Command picture frame strips, you can remove the shelf without damaging the wall. The shelf attaches via the command velcro-like strips and can easily be detached for re-positioning. The strips can then be removed from the wall without leaving any holes.
    I use this method to put action figures and other small items. Heavy items are not recommended. I estimate it can probably hold up to 5lbs of stuff.

    This is awesome!! TY!
    Another tip: 3M says that the strips are designed to be vertical and they are MUCH STRONGER that way. They suggest cutting off the tops of long strips to use them vertically instead of rotating them 90 degrees.

      Just get a matched quart of paint at Home Depot and a small container of joint compound. When your ready to leave the apartment repair it yourself. If you have hardwood floors, these could potentially fall off and damage the flooring, and that is a much harder and more expensive fix. Plus you will have extra paint around if you need to touch things up for peace of mind.

    Before you do this hack, do a proper assessment of the surface you are mounting the strips to. The strips are rated to hold a certain amount of weight adhered to a solid surface, but you're most likely mounting this on painted drywall. The wall surface may rip off well before the mounting strips. If you are renting, definitely make sure to take these down before someone else moves in. The next person will not necessarily know how you mounted these to the wall and they may assume its stronger than it is.

  • @noadaboa
    @noadaboa 6 ปีที่แล้ว +41

    A couple of warnings:
    1) I ordered the shelves from the link and they look exactly the same, EXCEPT that the side meant for mounting does not have the area in the middle that would be flush with the wall as in the video. I.e., the entire side is recessed and there's nowhere to put the command strips that would be flush with the wall. I guess they changed the design. So the easiest options are to use hardware or expose the ugly mounting side to the world.
    2) Make sure your corner is 90 degrees. If both sides can't be flush with the walls then you're going to have a bad time. Many apartments and buildings have walls that are not quite at 90 degrees.

    • @alexperry9276
      @alexperry9276 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I realized this too. If you have a 3d printer you can design a corner piece to fix both the problems by re-adding the removed middle portion of the shelf then adding a bit of chamfer so if your walls are not perfectly at 90 degrees you can add a few degrees.

    • @omgwtfbbqstfu
      @omgwtfbbqstfu 6 ปีที่แล้ว +50

      because its the wrong thing to use regardless, the entire point of the strip is its removability, which requires you to stretch it using the tab like chewing gum so it loses its grip, so the tabs have to stick out, and the strips can't be nailed.
      When his shelf fails its going to pancake world trade tower style, its just a bad idea.
      Plus the adhesive strip rating is for weight pulling straight down from a hook, the levering force of a shelf reduces the hold rating to nothing. Any double sided tape strong enough to make this work would cause more damage to your wall than a screw would.

    This seems like a nice idea and never thought of it. Just moved into an apartment and there is no holes that can be put in the wall so no nails. Back in 2015 I went to Japan but ended up getting a good amount of figurines when I went to the arcade when it started raining when I had no coat or umbrella. Now that I have my own place I have been thinking about displaying them just for the hell of it. This may work for my project as the figures are not that heavy and there is only 4 small ones and 3 normal size ones.

      Definitely give it a try. Ideally, just use nails if you're allowed to. I don't like to drill or nail things on walls so the 3M command stuff works for me. But I don't put heavy things. Check out my 1 year update video showing it's still up.

    Couple of things don't make sense.
    1) How do you get it off? Doesn't seem possible to pull on the strips to release the glue. Also doesn't seem possible to detach the heavy duty velcro from 2 mounted surfaces which are perpendicular to each other
    2) If it's not possible to release the strips or detach the velcro, why not just 3M heavy duty double sided tape?

    • @KenVersus

    Can you try it with using a mirror. Like just sticking it on a wall. A nice big wide mirror?

    • @KenVersus

      I used them to stick a long mirror on my door. But the mirror is thin and light. Nothing heavy.

    I wonder if those would work for me?! I have these terrible and cheap popcorn walls in my apartment. It's so hard getting anything on them.

    • @KenVersus
      @KenVersus  6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      They could work but like I mentioned in the video its not designed to hold a lot of weight. Mine are still up after almost year.

    what do you think about 3 or 4 books in each shelf or a small pot plant? do you think would hold?

    • @etutorials7569
      @etutorials7569 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Shangas0 I used the strips to tape a huge heavy mirror on my wall and It’s still stuck to the wall. I’ve had it for about 2 years now and it never falls. I think a small pot plant would be fine and it wouldn’t fall. But heavy books could potentially loosen them so you should test it out with a light book first.

    • @KenVersus
      @KenVersus  5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      If the books are paperbacks and wouldn't hurt you if it fell. Some with pot plant. The dirt will be a mess. Mine are still up since the posting of this video.

    Would these hold books up? I don't want to damage my walls because I'm renting but I want longer ones too. Just looking at options.

    • @KenVersus
      @KenVersus  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think that'd be too heavy. Try a shelf like this: th-cam.com/video/MePbxEOV4QQ/w-d-xo.html

    the weight rating on the strip pack is important, it's not per strip, it is combined

    Went to check these out at Ikea, they don't have that little section of material where he added the strips, They may have updated the design to not include it.

    • @KenVersus
      @KenVersus  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah they have changed it. Other options would be to add some wood there. But might be too much trouble.

      Mine have been up for years. It depends a lot on the texture of your wall and what you put on it. I usually have light items

    Does it remove the wall paint when you try to pull them

    • @KenVersus
      @KenVersus  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      The 3M command strips have tabs that you pull that will remove it without ripping the paint off. That's why I use them. No damage to the walls.

      They dont if you remove them correctly, you need to hold the velco part while you pull the bit that stretches and it will just come away :)

  • @alexturriff2705
    @alexturriff2705 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    i watched you video and went out to get the supplies. i've just looked at my lack shleves and they dont have a piece of wood in the middle like yours did so there isnt a way to attach the command strips to the non smooth side. any suggestions?

    • @KenVersus
      @KenVersus  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ikea changed their design. But I did notice the white shelves in my Ikea had the piece but the black and colored ones didn't.
      You may need to add a little piece of wood as a filler.
      Or put the smooth sides to the wall exposing the "ugly" side. You can cover it with some wall paper.

    Hi, I like the idea but how are you going to remove it? it will be nice if you can make a video about that too..because I don't see any extra tag popping out to pull the 3M strip.

    • @KenVersus
      @KenVersus  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Bee Creatiwe hi the command strips I link to in the description has the round tabs that you pull to remove them.

    • @beecreatiwe5068
      @beecreatiwe5068 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      yeah, I use command strips all the time and I am wondering how you are going to remove the lack shelf without damaging the wall...To remove the shelf neat and clean, you have to slowly pull the tab ( usually popping outside and visible) parallel to the wall. But this is a very nice video..i like it!

    • @KenVersus
      @KenVersus  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Bee Creatiwe I love command strips too and try to find unique ways to use them.

    • @amandaducharme91
      @amandaducharme91 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      They are the picture strips. They are almost like Velcro. You attach one side to the shelf and one to the wall and you can remove and reattach. The strips are hidden when they are together but when you pull them apart you have access to the pull tabs. I use them at home and really like them.

    Yeah but when you pound those in they still don't look very stable, thats why the shelf has holes on the back to make it more secured on the wall....

      Not if you put literally nothing on them like this guys does. The shelves themselves don't weigh much, so if you don't load the shelves with anything, they'll be fine.
