Part of the basement referb involves us moving the office furniture from the dining room into the basement. We need something to replace the storage capacity in the dining room for wine glasses, booze and cook books.
Despite our repeated problems with the biggest Danish on-line auction house (it's a real auction house, not eBay) we have again managed to win a lot and pay for some Montana shelves. Whether they turn up or not remains to be seen.
These are usually stupidly expensive and they are supposed to be brand new (presumably ex display) and also fitted with the mounts to hang on the wall and built in lighting (minus transformer).
I am already dreading trying to get them hung on the wall
Eazy peazy

Lemon squeezy!
ReplyDeleteHope that they will fit in the car!

They need to hang seperately but look like they are a single so they are touching. Not that easy as the weight of the upper one should be on the wall, not on the lower shelf.
ReplyDeleteThere is a mounting rail on the back so whatever goes into the wall will have to be aligned within 1mm.
Not that easy!
Drill the first holes with a very small diameter masonry drill and open the hole out progressively with larger drills until the desired size is reached. You may then have a sporting chance of correcting any drift. It can also be worth ensuring that the vertical alignment is done using a plumbline rather than relying on a level. 1mm is a reasonable challenge with your hard bricks. Good luck. G
ReplyDeleteYou're all aiming that I can even figure out where the holes should be! They may just stand on the floor.
