What happens here

Using a stud finder, locate and mark the wall studs where the floating shelves will be installed. Use a laser level to ensure perfectly straight installation lines. Position the first shelf frame on the wall and secure it directly into the studs using 2.5-inch wood screws. For the remaining shelves, upgrade to longer lag screws (e.g., 3-inch or longer) to provide superior holding strength, especially since these shelves will hold heavy items. Ensure each shelf frame is level before fully tightening the screws.

Goal: Mark stud locations on the wall and securely attach the built shelf frames using appropriate screws for maximum strength.
