Begin by holding the shelf against the wall at the desired height and location. Consider where you want the shelf to be both aesthetically pleasing and functional. For heavy shelves or those intended to hold bulky items, it's crucial to secure the hardware directly into wall studs. Use a Zircon stud finder to locate and mark the studs within your chosen area. If a stud is not available at your ideal spot, you will need to plan for the use of appropriate wall anchors, which are discussed in a later step.
