How to Install Pipe Shelving on a Stair or Hallway Wall · Step 8 of 8
In this video
Once the shelf board is fully prepared and dry, carefully lift it and position it onto the installed pipe brackets. Center the board on the brackets and push it firmly against the wall. The weight of the shelf and any items placed on it will typically hold it in place. For added security in a basement, especially if there's a risk of accidental bumps or if the shelf will hold heavy items, you can use small L-brackets or pipe straps underneath the shelf, screwed into the wood and the pipe, to prevent it from lifting off. Finally, arrange your items on the shelf to complete your new storage solution.
