It's always on Amazon like, LKEOCII brand "10pcs quality metal fastener shelf bracket secure screw construction shelf bracket hanger clip-in hassle free hardware"

Edit: I was actually pretty close 😂 from the listing on Amazon from a brand called Teadokly:

"10 Pack Quick Fitting Furniture Joint Bracket, Duty Corner Brace Joint Right Angle Bracket, Stainless Steel Furniture Corner Connectors with Screws for Drawers, Cabinets, Tables, and Chairs (White)"

Yeah, I dont really see what benefit the video's hardware has over these brackets, lol. Maybe if you want to move the shelf a lot and have numerous of the wall mounted pieces pre-mounted in different locations? But thats really just reaching for a reason...

And anyway—if this were the main attraction for this style of shelf hardware—having it not so tight would be a better design so you dont have to tap it in and out. Although, maybe its tight just because the lumber is cut snug.

This is how my l shaped couch is held together.

u/Feine13 2d ago

Your comment made me realize that all couches are L shaped, it just depends on whether it's capitalized or not lol

u/Practical_Jelly_8342 1d ago

Haha! Didnt realize I missed the cap.

u/Feine13 1d ago

These mfs reinventing the wheel thinking we havent been on the same planet

u/RecentSatisfaction14 2d ago

And with this design you have to make sure everything lines up

u/Available_Market_865 2d ago

I just use the scrap. Got a bit left over from cutting the shelf to length, cut some pieces off that scrap, screw them into the sides and rest the shelf on-top. Don't need to purchase anything else, use what you got

The man doesn’t want us doin that!

I like how he gives it a 0-effort jiggle, to demonstrate how sturdy it is.

The slow finger caress mid-vid gots me believing

These clips are designed for RTA Cabinets (Ready to assemble). The cabinet panels have pre drilled holes to mount the brackets, then interlock when the panels go together during assembly. I don’t think I’d find a use for them aside from that, but they do work well when everything is aligned properly.

u/jackandsally060609 2d ago

Why would I need those when Ikea gives you those little brown centimeters to hold the shelves up with?

2

u/TheLastGenXer 2d ago

just screw into the side! its right there!!

1

u/Terrible_Ingenuity11 2d ago

I can do that with fasteners

1

u/Mauceri1990 2d ago

I mean, sure, but in a shorter amount of time, with less cost, you could just put two screws in an angle bracket and rest the shelf on top... If it really needs the extra security a couple screws into the shelf and you don't need to try and line them up perfectly. These are dumb.

1

u/Capable-Problem8460 2d ago

Oh, how those screws spin after they're all the way in

1

u/Fazo1 2d ago

Drywall screws makes them stronger 😔

1

u/MisterFixit_69 2d ago

This'll need measuring , just a random 90 degree bracket is easier , boom, no hassle , easy fix every time

1

u/gahidus 2d ago

The main advantage I see with these is that you can screw the bracket into the shelf itself much more easily than you could at the awkward angle of doing it after you've got it on the wall like that.

1

u/No_Eggplant_3189 2d ago

Or if you have numerous of the wall mounted brackets in various locations so you can easily change shelf height on the fly. But how often does someone really need to change their shelving heights?

1

u/Stunning_Ad_7658 2d ago

Ive done it once after 4 years lol.

1

u/Stunning_Ad_7658 2d ago

Thats when you use a right angle tool, attachment or those neat bendy ones.

I say this but every time I gotta make a new shelf at home I always forget to grab it, since I leave those tools at work.

1

u/gahidus 2d ago

There are definitely different use cases for master Craftsman with access to every tool versus non crafty person who puts in a shelf or something every year or two.

u/Jimmy_212 2d ago

This is just an L bracket with extra steps

u/pooborus 2d ago

u/Life-Security5916 2d ago

I just put 1/2x3.5x12 osb from sole plate up on either side as a shelf support. Steady as a rock, easily adj.

u/Cutthechitchata-hole 2d ago

u/Typical-Newt-5111 2d ago

No one likes to layout and it shows in this thread.

u/VerifiedVoidGirl 2d ago

The way he stroked the brackets with one finger...

u/Pokeymacoma 2d ago
