Shelving planner

Putting up shelves in an alcove or on a wall? Scopebase works out the boards, brackets and the right fixings for your wall, what it should cost and how long it takes.

Example: “Put up 2 shelves in an alcove, each 0.9m long”

What Scopebase works out

  • Shelf boards cut to your lengths and depths
  • Brackets and fixings to suit your wall and what the shelves hold
  • Finishing materials, if you want them
  • Working hours and the steps in order

What we'll ask you

  • How long and deep should each shelf be, and how many?
  • What is the wall made of?
  • What will the shelves hold?
  • Which bracket style and board would you like?

Safety notes in your plan

  • Check for hidden pipes and cables before drilling
  • Heavy loads on plasterboard need the right fixings
