This bracket will be mounted into the wooden wall studs before the sheetrock or covering board is put in place. The amount inside the wall should be approximately 3 inches. Measure the length of the shelf or countertop you want to install, in this example, it will be 18 inches. Subtract 3 inches. This subtraction is to stay away from the outer edge of the shelf or countertop, which is usually 2-4 inches. Add 3 inches for the length that is inside the wall. Our final measurement is 18 inches. When mounted it will have a 3-inch overhang, which is the desired amount. Floating shelves, bathroom vanity, mantel, and desks are all supported by the Free Hanging Shelf Bracket.
