Installing Wooden Shelves in Your Closet
By Mark J. Donovan
|
|
Installing wooden shelves in a closet is a
straight forward task that any homeowner can
do. Tools required for hanging wooden
shelves include a saw, hammer, level,
measuring tape, center punch and pencil. To install wooden shelves simply measure the
height from the floor to where you want the
shelve to sit. Make a mark on the wall.
|
Next using your level,
put the level on the mark such that the
bubble in the level is centered. Make
two additional marks next to the level.
You should now have 3 marks that are in
perfect alignment.
|
|
Repeat this
process so that the side and back walls each
have these marks. By placing your level on
an angle between the side wall and the back
wall, and on the marks, you should be able
to confirm the marks on each wall are level
with each other.
Next, install along the back wall 1"x3"
trim. You will need to cut it to length and
secure it with finish nails. Make sure the
nails are nailed into studs (2"x4"s). Repeat
this process with the two side walls. Then
sink the nails with your center punch.
|
Next, cut to length a piece of closet board.
Closet board is made out of particle board
and has a rounded over smooth edge in the
front. You can obtain this at any home
improvement center.
Lay the closet board onto the 1"x3" wooden
strips and you are done.
