I've got mine all laid out to be built tomorrow. Was a bit daunted, but this has helped. Cheers.
You're welcome :)
Thanks for posting this, my one-piece-of-badly-printed-A4-paper instructions were total garbage, so I really appreciate your review and assembly instructions!
You're welcome :)
Got these spent hours trying to figure out we shouted and drove us mental so in the end put back in box sat there for two months until I found your tutorial on putting them together thank you finely got some shelves :-))
I'm happy I could help :)
Thank you so much!!! I'm so grateful. The instructions i recieved was just two drawings of an already built structure. It didn't even explain the middle bit. I built one with your video and was so happy with it, I bought a bigger one. If I had space, I'd buy another 2 lol!!!
You're very welcome!
This helped me to get mine together. Instruction manual was shit. Thanks!
Great to hear Ben. Happy to help.
My instructions were crap, too! Very helpful.
Thank you for posting this. I bought StorageWorks 5 tier shelving that didn’t come with instructions. The only pieces I didn’t know about were the cross shelf pieces. Bend the tabs for middle support!! And Done!!!
Fantastic. I'm glad it helped. Thank you for taking the time to write to me.
This is a good video that entails the way to setup this Heavy Duty Shelf. Good job!
Thank you kindly!
Thank you very much for this video! The instruction manual was rubbish, so I'm glad you made a short tutorial.
You're welcome :)
Thank goodness for this video!
Thankyou. I was stuck on the middle supports, didn't know you had to bend them, saved me a lot of head scratching time ha ha....
Glad I could help mate.
that one little piece that goes in the middle had me stumped. thanks for the video!!!!
You are very welcome!
Thankyou - Very similar to the ones I just bought, that didn't come with ANY instructions at all 👍👍👍
You're welcome.
This just saved my life lol I feel so stupid I didn't realise the wood shelving goes ontop simply I thaught it slided along the groove lol lol uh ty
You're very welcome. I'm glad this video keep on helping people.
Great video, very handy to watch, i bought a set and couldn't get my head around the assembly. The instructions are useless. Your film made it much clearer, many thanks, good effort.
Bart Man I'm really pleased the video helped Sir :) Thank you for feedback. All the best, Marcin
***** You're welcome Marcin, I really cannot stress how baffled by the assembly, if it wasn't for your video I think it was going to be sent back. I have just spent almost an hour (I need to practice to get up to your impressive timings) and I am very pleased with the results now. HUGE THANKS again, keep up the good work.
Your video really helped me. Thank you! xx
You're welcome :)
Thank you! very informative
Thank you!
You're very welcome.
Great help, thank you!
You're welcome.
Nice neat job....thanks !
Held together with gravity! Awesome! Except if you have an uneven surface! Which I do. It fell apart at least half a dozen times before I wised up and put some heavy stuff on the bottom shelf to keep it together. Gravity is great for keeping me on Planet Earth, but there is a reason that most furniture uses screws, nails and bolts. Now my stuff is on the shelf and I am scared to take the stuff off.
+Brewster Scott Ouch! Sound like you had a tough time. I can imagine that uneven surface throws it out of balance all together.Tell you what, after quite some time now, I do see that gravity effect taking it's toll on mine too. Bottom is touching the wall, top...not so much anymore. :) I try not to put too much heavy stuff on it on top so it doesn't all fold itself happily. All the best.
Very Helpful
Glad it helped
Thank you, great help for me! 🙏👌
Glad to hear that! Thank you for watching.
Liked. Should of shown one in worktop mode, more work though. on eBay for £120 for 3 found for £91.80 direct good video.
Thank you u make it easy for me 👌
You're welcome
goodSuper
I've got one like it, but it didn't come with the instructions for converting it into the 2 smaller units. Is there any way to find out the instructions?
Just build it half way up twice and stand next to each other. There's no way to connect them together that I can see.
Brilliant video but I have a question. The supports under each shelf bend in to place as shown but what is the drilled hole on each support for? There doesn’t appear to be a purpose; nor for the similar sized holes on the top and bottom of the frames. Please would you be so kind as to explain? Thank you very much.
I have you be honest, I've absolutely no idea :)
4 year on, they're still as good as they came.
Maraggie yes I thought that perhaps some of the parts are used in other products where those holes are utilised but I thought I best check with the expert in case I was missing something. Thanks for confirming that you have no idea either. Good to hear re. their longevity too. 👍🏼
Well There's a ton of stuff that I hung off them exactly like that...by using all the random holes they got. Quite useful. :)
This was also my question.
I believe they are there so you can use bolts to attach completed shelving units together side by side, adding stability, or you can screw the back into a wall.
Thankyou so much
Your video helped a lot👍
Stupid instructions from screwfix
You're welcome! :)
Thanks very helpful
You're very welcome :)
I lost the couplers. Where can I get more?
Hello. I'm not sure, sorry. I would try the place you bought it from to see if they have B-grade or rejects. I don't think you can get spares for such product :/ Best of luck.
Can you tell the names of the parts as I want to order them separetly as I have some in my garage but a few parts are not there.Please tell the names of each part so that I can order them online.Thanks
Hello. I'm sorry but I'm not sure what the names are or if you can get parts separately.
The boltless shelving I got has different shaped holes on the uprights - like a key hole - does it matter which way up I start? Also the video doesn't show a close up of slotting the horizontal bars into the uprights - I don't want to get it wrong and have to try and take it apart. Can anyone explain this part to me please?
Hello. If you have a keyhole shaped slot, it sounds like the bigger bit should be on top... so you put the part in and slide it down towards the narrower bit to lock it in place.
The instructions that came with this set absolutely sucked!!!! You’re simple trick in the beginning with the base build was spot on and saved me tons of time!!!
You're welcome mate. I'm really glad this video keeps on helping :)
How do I know which pieces are for second tier?
Hello Megan. They should be all the same.
I cant find those upright post connector plates anywhere.
I set my shelves up as half height and put those connectors somewhere and cant find them.
I want to buy another set but they are very hard to find. Does anyone know where to find some?
I'm really sorry but I don't.
Any way to add doors to these so you don't see the contents?
Not that I know of. You could cover sides and add doors to the front but I'd probably opt for buying something that already has doors. Recycled office cupboards spring to mind. Plenty on ebay.
Has anyone done a load test on these units?
Can't say I have but I had loads of stuff on them in the past including oils etc and it never buckled. I never had them secured to the wall so I kept the really heavy stuff away, just in case.
Can you install these higher than 5 levels? I have a high garage which is about 14 feet.
Hello. Yeah, they're stackable with ease. Securing to the wall would be a must though.
Hi,should the wooden shelf be loose?
Hi. Yes, it's not secured by anything and sits in the groove. Once weighed down, it's stable without a problem. I'm still using mine.
thank you .very helpful
claire bailey I've very happy it helped. All the best.

Can you come over and fix mine up plz
Sorry to hear you have trouble with yours :/
In the beginning he talk to much
I’ve just bought one of these - the instructions in the pack is dreadful so went to you tube for clear instructions. Sadly it’s not clear at all - a very disappointing mumbly video.
Thank you for commenting on 9 year old video. Appreciate the feedback too. Things have changed since then. All the best.
Rubbish waste of money
I still got mine, 6 years later. Have yours failed somehow?
Maraggie it took ages to fit as the so called easy fit system had the clips etc going in and had to push them out using chisel
I would suggest tegometal
@@sofosstudent Ah I see. I bought 3 more from a different place last year and the quality of the mounting slots does vary sometimes. Mind you the nerwer ones were actually a better fit than the old ones. I guess it can be a bit of a lottery when buying these.
these shelves are garbage, don't waste your money on them, mine are going back tomorrow
+D. Reichert HI. What happened to yours? Anything I can do to prevent the same from happening? I got quite a lot of weight on mine, lots of stuff I'd rather not damage if they fail.
+Maraggie I find them to be flimsy, and a pain to assemble, nothing locks together, so they fall apart when you are assembling them and when you try to move them around, then slots never lined up properly had to use a screwdriver to bend open the slots so the tabs will align, not impressed
+D. Reichert I sure can appreciate the pain of putting these together :). They lose the flimsiness once connected up and with some weight on them. I have 3 in total - 2 in garage and 1 in my office/workshop, since May 2014 so a good year and a half. No problems apart from slight bending of one but that's my fault for putting too much crap on it and in retrospect, I should really connect them up to the wall for when I distribute the weight unevenly. But hey ho :)
Thank you!
You're very welcome 👍🏼
