How To Install Open Shelving?
I think that I need more space in my kitchen. But, I guess a lot of people think the same way that I do. So I was thinking I could install open shelves in my kitchen.
To get started, I will need these materials, which are, measuring tape, hand drill, shelf, level, brackets, and wood screws.
Before I start putting up my shelves, I have to find a stud for each section of my kitchen that I am going to do this in. I will find each stud by knocking my knuckles on the drywall until I do not hear a hollow sound> I will need to mark the studs after I find them to determine the interval of my house's framing.
My next step is to secure my brackets. I will use a Flathead screwdriver to get the screws secured. It can be done to complement my shelf design. I will have to put a bracket every 2 to 3 feet of shelf length.
I will need to have my level handy, because I will be needing to make sure the shelves will be level. I will need to use the level to mark and install the remaining brackets. I will need to measure the length of my shelf to be able to decide how many brackets that I will need in all.
By putting up shelves, I can put my favorite kitchen gear close at hand.
