Claims13
A floating shelf hardware comprising:
- a wall plate comprising
- a front face with a series of vertically aligned screw holes spaced horizontally at intervals and at least one stud attachment point, allowing for variable placement of the wall plate on a wall, wherein the screw holes are vertically spaced separately;
- and
- a trapezoid geometry formed by two angular surfaces angled towards the center extended from the front face towards the wall and forming a retaining lip on both the top and bottom sides of the wall plate;
- a shelf slider comprising
- a corresponding geometry to the wall plate, allowing it to movably attach to the wall plate and slide along the full length of the wall plate;
- a threaded opening extending through the center of the slider;
- a shelf extension arm that can be threaded into the threaded opening of the slider, wherein the back surface of the shelf extension arm contacts the face of the wall plate, thereby pulling the angled surfaces of the slider against the angled surfaces of the wall plate and preventing movement of the slider.
