RE: SP1794 16x16 bracket. Unable ot find max load limit. Want to build shelf to hold a 150lb unit and not sure if 1 or 1 1/2 kits would hold it??

Hubby says "he'll need two sets". Our brackets are for a small table-top that holds a bowl, a spoon, a cereal box and a carton of milk every morning.

I just use it as a shelf in the laundry room so probably have never had more than 30 pounds on mine. I've got three brackets on a 48" shelf. Seems sturdy enough, but I doubt I'd put 150 pounds on it.

My 16 inch brackets(2) hold up a 90 lb, 5 foot long butcher block workbench. However, I do support the bench midway with a portable leg stand.

It depends on what you are screwing it into. If you are going through drywall into a beam then I suggest 2" screws. That way it will hold the heavier Pro Monitor 1000 without a problem. I hope that helps.

I use these with 19" monitors to attach to thin clients which are attached to modular stands. The screw placement is a 4" square which match to the monitor stand that is removed. It is very sturdy but I have never tried anything larger or heavier. The Kit Assembly Instructions do not indicate a weight capacity. It comes with 4 - 12mm screws and 4 - 20 mm screws that are approx 1/2 in length.

Hi Zach, The single shelf has a 17lbs max, double has like 25lbs, and triple has like 40lbs. I have a few singles and 1 triple. I personally would only put about 15-20lbs on the single (if you screw into a wall stud).

It's pretty sturdy. I think I have 10 or 15 pounds at least on each shelf. I put the heaviest items on the bottom shelf. If you put a lot of weight on the shelves, I think it would be wise to install the wall anchor that came with your unit. I have not anchored mine, but the weight does not seem to cause the unit to be shaky or unbalanced. I think this unit is a good buy, especially at the price.

See what the max load weight is for the rest of your rack. As far as the actual lb50 thule crossbars, id trust it. Just usr good judgement.

I have approx. 15-20 lbs per shelf. I would suggest tho - using 2 wall mounts instead of just the one in the package. I have it sitting on carpet with a floor molding, so the shelf cannot stand completely straight. I used just the one & it eventually pulled from the wall. Overall I really like the shelves - I purchased 2 and would purchase again, if I needed another.

Hey Guys, I just received a 2nd, 3-tiered unit. Low and behold, again with the same 2x3" support bracket that Michael Vitale commented on on May 23. As I don't see any replies that appear to be from manufacturer's reps, I'm going to do a bit more research. If no further response from me, you can figure that I sent it back. Bummer.

the manual says overloading is when the shelf bends 1/2 inch downward. Im guessing between 20 and 30 pounds but if you are going to put that much weight on it i would switch out the plastic crap brackets for metal ones as you put that much weight on the shelf it is sure to snap those plastic ones right away. theres only two shelves in it as well. I wouldnt use it for food storage or anything like that but books or movies would work in it.

It appears to hold two shelves maximum. The weight however, I'm not sure. Their website will have all the info you want on it! https://www.suncast.com/sheds-storage/sheds/storage-sheds.html

I have three of these units. While the rating is 150 lbs. for each shelf, I have one of the units with at least 150 lbs. on each shelf...accept the top. There is easily 500 -600 lbs. on the five shelf unit. It is that well engineered. However, I don't know what kind of a side load the unit would take if pushed on, and don't really care to find out. If you are in an earthquake area i would definitely anchor it to a wall if completely loaded.

The back of the package shows that the brackets can be a maximum of 24" inches apart. I am planning to use 3 brackets for my 50" shelf (50" long, 1" thick, 12" deep).

I purchased these for a 1-1/2" solid wood shelf that is 36" long and 10" deep. They are pretty strong brackets and look very nice. We haven't had any issues with them and they could probably hold a shelf up to 48" long if you really needed to. I would just make sure they are installed into a stud versus using the wall anchors in just the drywall. Hope that helps.

Hello,This can hold up to 1,000 lbs. per shelf (evenly distributed). The shelf do lock into place with the clips for the shelving.Thanks

For 17, it might work if you put the shelf together "backwards" (with the flat pieces without the shelf on the outside), but you'll have quite a bit of overhang that will stick out of your rack, and it doesn't hold together as well, and makes your shelf slightly narrower. I have ~20 inches inside post to inside post on a 4 post. I have it outside, and I'm actually going inside post on the front to outside post on the back and I still have a tiny bit of overhang off the back.

This is what I found on the packaging for the Bracket "Do not exceed maximum loading 25 lbs"

Nope, I had to whittle mine down to the standard shelf size . Don't remember it, I am on the road, but will append this when I get home. I tired to bend the shelf unit.... DON'T DO IT. Messes up everything, unless you have a press brake, and the skill to use it.OK, back home. The shelf unit will only properly work on a 3/4" shelf, not thicker, or thinner (within 1/8" or so).
