Getting creative with this @ufpedge to make some faux beam shelfs! Looking pretty slick!! 👀

What happens here

With the custom shelves now fully assembled, it's time for installation. Carefully position the shelves onto the designated outdoor wall and wooden posts. The video shows the shelves being mounted onto a stone veneer wall and a wooden post, suggesting a robust hidden mounting system is used, likely involving ledger boards or internal brackets that are first secured to the wall studs or framing. Once aligned, securely fasten the shelves to the wall and posts using appropriate fasteners (e.g., long wood screws or lag screws) for outdoor conditions. Ensure they are level and stable.

Goal: Securely mount the custom shelves to the outdoor structure

Tools and materials

  • Drill/Driver — Driving screws for mounting the shelves (implied)
  • Level — Ensuring shelves are mounted horizontally
  • Stud Finder — Locating wall studs for secure attachment
  • Long Wood Screws — Securely fastening shelves to the wall/posts
