A: I'd use a 1 1/2 in. coarse thread sheet rock screw or pan head screw. Just don't use a real "fat" screw as it may not fit through the pre drilled holes.

A: This bracket is probably not strong enough.
Check the maximum weight allowed on the companies web site.

A: I installed about 20 of these brackets 2 years ago. I put them on each 16" spaced studs, because of the heavy load needed. They are narrow enough at the top to get two long screws angled in on each bracket, plus the one centered at the bottom. This is a very substancial bracket for shelving.

Answer This Question
A: Do not think shelf brackets would or could be supported on trellis unless trelis is attached to a wall or at least some kind of poles to be able to hold weight, just my thought! Pete
by|Jun 2, 2020
A: Yes, as long as what you're securing them to is at least 1 1/2 inches wide as screw holes are approx. 1 1/4 apart. Would suggest you pre drill holes slightly smaller than screw diameter
by|May 7, 2020
A: yes use screws. or nuts with bolts and washers.
by|Jul 5, 2020
A: This shelf bracket needs to be installed to wall studs or with a proper anchor, and is for indoor use. Also there are too many other factors to consider concerning the trellis wall - installation method, material, load capacity, etc.
