Install Ikea lack shelf without a hassle and in no time at all! You will use the walls in your home efficiently as the shelf holds a lot of things without taking up much room. It is shallow so could occupy both awkward corners and tight space, which is very important if you need extra storage. Thanks to its sleek design, Lack shelf looks good in every room. It's great to display dinnerware or drink-ware in the kitchen, ornaments or photos in the living room or some cute toys in the nursery. It can also hold make-up in the bathroom or serve as a bookshelf and a nightstand in your bedroom.
You can either mount the shelf unit horizontally or vertically on the wall but remember about the total load. Ikea's recommendations are: total max. load 25 kg for a horizontal position and the max. load 3 kg per shelf for a vertical one.
I have fixed the shelf to the plasterboard but different wall material requires different types of fixing devices so double check what is suitable for the walls in your home.
So if you are not sure how to put the Ikea Lack wall shelf unit together or need some help to fix it to the wall watch my video to see how to do it. It will take you no longer than an hour to finish the job.

@
@Italianbombshell81منذ 3 سنواتThank you!! My Dad normally does this stuff for me, and he passed last year. My shelf has been on the floor but has tipped over twice from the amount of id="hidden2" class="buttons"> stuff I have had on it, even with the Velcro picture hangers. My only question is what are the things called you put in the wall to anchor it? It didn’t come with my set and I will need to run to HomeDepot. ....وسعت19

@
@notshyloمنذ 4 سنواتFinally, someone mounts the unit on the wall! Every other video, people leave it sitting on the floor :-| What size drill bit, drywall anchor, and screws id="hidden3" class="buttons"> did you use for the plate to mount it to the wall? And should I install a plate on the top and bottom? I know it comes with three, but not sure if it would help distribute the weight or not. Thanks! ....وسعت6
@
@adams9217منذ 3 سنواتDo you think these shelves are stackable? One on top of the other ?
@
@thayeethao4220منذ 4 سنواتThis video is what I’ve been looking for!! Thanks. Where did you get that specific mounting plate? 2
@
@samirarazak7083منذ 3 سنواتDo you have to drill it on the wall coz I’m getting a rent house and I don’t wanna do that
@
@varunmendiratta4077منذ 4 سنواتThanks for the video. Do the screws and anchors come along with it? If I install this on my drywall, will the wall be able to hold the weight? 1
@
@Richy-منذ 3 سنواتDoes the board itself come pre-assembled or do you assemble it yourself? I'm pretty short and I don't want it to be a super tall shelf. Ideally id="hidden4" class="buttons"> I'd like to be able to split it into 2 parts side by side with like max 3 or 4 dividers on both parts. ....وسعت
@
@heatheroberst761منذ 4 سنواتFor mounting vertically there is only one mounting plate at the top with 2 holes for anchors? Does the bottom of the unit not need to be constrained to prevent rotation? 2
@
@GratefulLeperمنذ 3 سنواتGreat video. Btw, what is the name of the bracket you used on the top of the shelf to secure it to the wall?
@
@jermainebuchanan1456منذ 2 سنواتAnyone knows where i can find a replacement mounting plate I’ve checked ikea and all over the internet no luck.
@
@jeremygoddard6374العام الماضيwhere did you get the metal mounts you fixed to the shelf itself ??? cool hack
@
@A1.sanchez_منذ 4 سنواتSo the full lack shelf is always sold out where I’m from. Would it be the same if I buy the back then the little pieces separate and put it together to look like #1?
@
@JustAGrl007منذ 3 سنواتI liked the video but I wish you would've linked the nails you used. Did you use top and bottom screws when you put it up vertically? 1
@
@traceylee131منذ 2 سنواتHow much weight do you think the vertical setup could hold?? I'm hoping to use it for some big textbooks and small potted plants!
@
@Jess_Bishopمنذ 4 سنواتThe option #1, while very well installed, seems still to not be enough support for such a big piece, especially when you put items on it. I’d be afraid of that totally falling down! 7
@
@YGN_Ronقبل 10 أشهرWhat did you uses to hold it up mines is leaning bad and I want something to hold it back on the wall
@
@voodoo9077منذ 4 سنواتGreat video. Very helpful. Does the three screws more than enough to hold the shelf horizontally?
