Description

Keep things afloat on a plasterboard wall with our solid oak floating plasterboard shelves

Our solid oak floating plasterboard shelves are suitable to install on plasterboard stud walls. Handcrafted from the finest quality character grade kiln-dried European oak. The standard depths of our solid oak floating plasterboard shelves are 6" and 8". Deeper shelves are available with our standard solid wall shelves. The thickness finishes around 32mm thick.

Price is per shelf.

Have solid walls? See our Solid Oak Floating Shelf here.

We offer a comprehensive range of colour finishes. High-quality wood stains penetrate deep into the timber for a beautiful finish followed by a finishing coat of wax polish.

We have provided the ultimate hardware solution for fitting floating shelves into 9-15mm plasterboard walls. Each shelf is supplied with strong and adjustable concealed floating shelf supports manufactured by Hafele, along with the innovative Gripit brown plasterboard fixing. The back of the shelves come pre-drilled with a relief that slots neatly over the fixing flush with your wall.

We aim to manufacture our solid oak floating shelves to the highest possible standard. In order to minimise waste, we may manufacture floating shelves from two or more pieces of timber to create the required depth. By following strict industry standard techniques, this does not detract from the overall quality and actually results in further stability.

Our Timber

 

SUSTAINABILITY
We always use oak sourced from sustainably managed forests who are FSC or PEFC certified. We also plant 1 tree for every £50 spent with us. For our oak shelves, this equates to planting on average 135 trees for every 1 used.
 
CRACKS & MOVEMENT
Our solid oak floating shelves are handcrafted from the finest quality kiln dried European oak ensuring stability in your home. We have a couple of air dried oak shelves in our range for a further rustic appearance, these are well air dried ensuring minimal movement once installed in your home. If you fit the shelves near a heat source (such as above a radiator) some movement may be expected. Some shelves may have fine cracks which may be filled with filler before the final coat of stain and wax is applied depending on their size.
OTHER DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS
Oak is a natural product, therefore knots, colour, grain pattern and other distinguishing features can vary. Each shelf is completely unique! We aim to manufacture our solid oak floating shelves to the highest possible standard. In order to minimise waste, we may manufacture floating shelves from two or more pieces of timber to create the required depth. By following strict industry standard techniques, this does not detract from the overall quality and actually results in further stability.
SIZE TOLERANCE
We work to a tolerance of  +/- 5mm.  If you need a length smaller than a standard size, please order the next length up and leave a note in checkout to cut it down. Please note, this will make the item non-returnable.  Need something more bespoke? Get in touch for a quote.
 
WEIGHT TOLERANCE
Our solid wall fixings have the capacity to hold up to 35kg of weight between 2 fixings. This includes the weight of the shelf. Longer lengths come with more fixings. Our plasterboard fixings are suitable for plasterboard between 9-15mm thick - 2 fixings (2 T brackets and 4 Gripit fixings) can hold up to 20kg of weight including the weight of the shelf. This is a guide only - condition of the wall, shelf placement, weight distribution and shelf depth all affect the weight capacity.
 
 
Please note none of the above can be treated as defects.

FAQ's

Do shelves come with fixings?

Yes all of our shelves come with fixings for either solid masonry walls or plasterboard walls depending on the product you select.

We have products made especially for pasteboard walls so if you are fixings solely into plasterboard walls please make sure the product says "for plasterboard walls" in the title.

How much weight can my oak shelves hold?

For shelves suitable for solid walls, as a general rule, 2 fixings can hold up to 35kg of weight including the weight of the shelf. Our plasterboard walls can hold up to 20kg between 2 fixings including the weight of the shelf.

Shelf depth, wall type, condition of wall and distribution of items can affect the weigh capacity.

Where will the fixings be positioned?

The amount of fixings your shelf will have will depend on the length chosen.

Shelves under 4ft will come with 2 fixing points.

Shelves 4ft-5ft will come with 3 fixing points.

Shelves 5.5ft-6ft will come with 4 fixing points.

Shelves 6.5-7.5ft will come with 5 fixing points.

Fixings are usually around 5" from each end and then any subsequent fixings evenly spaced between. (This is not guaranteed) If you need to make sure the fixings are in a suitable position to enable you to fit to timber studs, please get in touch and we will be happy to adjust fixing positions on your order.

Can I have a bespoke size?

If you would like a bespoke length, please order the next length up and leave a note in the checkout to cut the beam down.

If the length you need is longer than what is listed or you need a different depth please contact us and we will be happy to check if this is something we can offer and provide a quote.

Please note that bespoke sizes will make the shelf none-returnable.

Where does your wood come from?

In order for us to be sustainable our timber must be too! Our timber is always sourced from reliable and reputable sawmills who are FSC or PEFC certified. We also give back by planting 1 tree for every £50 spent with us.

Oak Colour Finishes

Our premium range of wood stains, waxes and oils have been hand selected to enhance and protect the natural beauty of oak, creating a deep, rich, luxurious finish. 

Our stains penetrate deep into the oak and provide long-lasting colour, while our waxes seal and protect, leaving a velvety feel that ages gracefully over time. The finish will highlight the unique grain and introduce depth of colour and character that each beautiful piece of oak deserves.
