We ordered and installed 5 Aksel RADius Walnut Floating Shelves and they arrived as 3 separate shipments. After borrowing a laser level from a friend it was pretty easy to install them and they look great and feel secure. We're quite happy with the results.

Aksel Walnut Floating Shelf FAQ
Can walnut floating shelves hold heavy items?
Yes, each Aksel Walnut Floating Shelf is crafted from solid wood and supported by our patented Aksel bracket system. When installed into studs, it holds up to 45 lbs per rod — that’s 90 lbs on a 12" shelf and up to 225 lbs on shelves 74" and up. Translation: It’s not just strong. It’s overachiever strong.
How do I install walnut floating shelves without visible brackets?
With Shelfology’s Aksel bracket, the support hardware is completely hidden inside the shelf. You mount the bracket to the wall (into studs), then slide the shelf right on. No exposed metal. Just a clean, floating look designers obsess over. Learn more.
