FAQ: Aksel White Floating Shelf
Can floating shelves hold heavy items?
Yes, each Aksel White 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.
Can I use this in a kitchen or bathroom?
Absolutely — kitchens and baths love this shelf. The Aksel White Floating Shelf is finished with a durable, easy-to-clean varnish that stands up to the daily stuff. It’s a go-to for open shelving in hardworking kitchens and modern bathrooms that need to look good and live easy.
Can I get it a custom size?
You bet — that’s kind of our thing. Choose your exact shelf length (down to the 1/8 inch), and pick from our range of depths and thicknesses. Whether you’re filling a tight nook or going full feature wall, we’ll build to fit your project perfectly — no compromises, no awkward gaps. Got something different in mind? We’ll meet you there.

How do I install 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 bracket. Just a clean, floating look.
Are these floating shelves made from real wood?
They are. Each shelf is crafted from solid alder, a premium hardwood that brings natural strength and subtle grain. Then it’s finished in a premium white paint that lets the character of the wood sneak through — real wood, not MDF, and never fake.

Custom, because “close enough” doesn’t cut it.
One-size-fits-most? Not in our shop. Whether it’s a specific hue, an exact dimension, or a tweak only your project could dream up—we’re here for it. We speak fluent drawing set. We live for the back-and-forth. And we’ve built our whole process to serve designers, architects, builders, and millworkers who know what they want—and expect their partners to keep up.
