What happens here

Assemble one complete shelf bracket. First, pre-drill holes into the wood pieces to prevent splitting. Attach the 28.5-inch piece (top horizontal) to the 16-inch piece (vertical support) using 3-inch screws. Then, align the 22.5-inch angled piece (diagonal support) in the center of the joint and secure it to both the top horizontal and vertical pieces using 2 3/4-inch screws. Repeat this process for all required brackets (16 are shown).

Goal: Construct the individual shelf support brackets.

Put your 28 and 1/2 on top of your 16 like this. This is pre-drill. I'm using 3 and 1/8 for this part. Now, you got your angle here, right? This is your 22 and 1/2 piece. Go ahead and line it up as best as you can in the center. We're using 2 and 3/4 don't come out past the wood. Just like that, you got one done. This is going to sit in the wall like this. Your bins are going to sit on top of here and you'll be good to go. 16 of
