Shelf Bracket STANLEY STST82612-1 for Shelves, Load Capacity 22.5 kg

The STANLEY Shelf Bracket STST82612-1 is a compact metal support designed to hold wall-mounted or cabinet shelves with a rated load capacity of 22.5 kg. Its robust construction and discreet profile make it suitable for domestic storage, workshops, garages and office shelving where reliable support and simple installation are required. The bracket provides dedicated mounting points for screws and aligns with common shelf thicknesses to keep stored items stable and organised.

Advantages

The bracket’s metal construction delivers consistent support and resistance to bending under typical household and workshop loads. Its compact form factor minimises visual impact while providing a stable bearing surface for shelves. Predefined screw mounting points simplify installation and ensure repeatable alignment. Designed for practical use, the bracket is compatible with a range of shelf materials and finishes.

Suitable for

• Supporting lightweight to medium-weight shelves in kitchens, living rooms and bedrooms
• Organising tools and small parts in workshops and garages
• Office shelving for documents, supplies and small equipment
• Cabinet-mounted shelving inside closets or utility rooms

Key specifications

• Material: metal bracket for shelf support
• Rated load capacity: 22.5 kg per bracket
• Design: compact, low-profile support
• Mounting: screw mounting points for wall or cabinet attachment
• Compatibility: suitable for common shelf thicknesses and materials

How to use

Select an appropriate wall or cabinet location and mark the mounting positions at the required shelf height, taking into account the load capacity and spacing between brackets. Position the bracket so the shelf rests securely on the bearing surface, then fix the bracket to the wall or cabinet using suitable screws and wall anchors for the substrate. Install a second bracket aligned with the first to distribute loads evenly, and place the shelf on top, checking for level and secure fit before loading.

Usage recommendations

Use suitable fasteners and anchors matched to the mounting surface (drywall, masonry, timber). For heavier or longer shelves, increase bracket spacing and use multiple brackets to avoid exceeding the 22.5 kg rating per bracket. Periodically check screw tightness and shelf alignment to maintain safe support.
