WHAT YOU NEEDWHAT YOU NEED
There are 3 methods to create the channel: Hand chisel, router,
or, for the professionals, using a dado blade/table saw. The
most common method is to router out the back of your shelf to
make the room for the female bracket. It is important to note
that the bottom of the bracket is .80mm longer than the top. We
recommend having the the top of the bracket .40mm (a fingernail)
recessed from the shelf & a .40mm overhang for the bottom. This
is to allow for the bracket to slightly embed itself into the drywall
to prevent any unwanted rocking once installed.
STEP 1 - CREATE CHANNELSTEP 1 - CREATE CHANNEL
Use the 1 1/4” pan head screws to secure the bracket to your
shelf. Please use 1 screw per hole.
STEP 2 - ATTACH FEMALE BRACKETSTEP 2 - ATTACH FEMALE BRACKET
Option 1: You will need to drill & tap the holes in the bottom of the
shelf to accommodate the threaded set screws for the bracket that
we will be using to secure the two components together towards
the end of the installation process.
Option 2: You either can use epoxy glue only to secure both brack-
ets together later in the installation or combine both methods.
Epoxy is a more permanent installation.
STEP 3 - DRILL SET SCREW HOLESSTEP 3 - DRILL SET SCREW HOLES
You will need to drill the necessary holes into the male bracket.
Please use the 3/16” tapper bit. The reason we don’t predrill
the bracket is due to the vast variety in stud separation in each
individual case. It is recommended to find a minimum of 2 studs.
Mark your studs on the bracket & ensure you drill your holes
centered on the provided top & bottom dyelines on the bracket.

When attaching the male bracket to the wall, please use #8 -
2½” long panhead screws. Start by drilling one screw using the
top hole but not tightening all the way. Then use a level, make
sure the bracket is leveled before drilling your second screw into
the other stud. Tighten the screw (but not so much the bracket
bends) then go back and tighten the first one. Then screw in the
bottom screws in each stud.
It’s important to make sure you do not over-tighten. One “click”
or hand-tight is plenty. If the screws are too tight, it will cause the
bracket to bend, compromising the integrity of the Hovr Bracket
System.
STEP 5 - ATTACH MALE BRACKET TO WALLSTEP 5 - ATTACH MALE BRACKET TO WALL
Tilt your shelf downward at a 15° angle to begin engaging the 2
brackets together. Hook the upper part of your female bracket
onto the upper part of the male bracket. Once you feel the
grooves begin to interlock, pull the shelf down into place and
connect the two components.
STEP 6 - COMBINE BOTH BRACKETSSTEP 6 - COMBINE BOTH BRACKETS
Insert the set screws into the pre-drilled & tapped holes. Screw
them in by hand until they are finger tight, and then finish secur-
ing them with the provided Allen key. The tighter the better.
Alternatively, there is the method of using Epoxy glue instead of
set screws. This will reduce the load the shelf can handle.
Combining both methods together gives the strongest results.

STEP 7 - SECURE BRACKETS TOGETHERSTEP 7 - SECURE BRACKETS TOGETHER
In the case the brackets are not fully engaged initially, apply 2-3
solid taps at the back of the shelf where the brackets sit. This
should cause the brackets to snap fully into place, leaving a level
shelf.
It is important that the male bracket is flush against the wall. If
you bend it, it will fail to engage correctly with the female bracket,
resulting in a failed installation.
With that said, not all walls are straight. The female bracket in the
shelf is straight, so the male bracket on the wall must be straight
as well for them to engage. You can leave up to 1/4 of an inch
space between the back of the male bracket & the wall without
the integrity or holding capacity being compromised.
There are options here on how to deal with that extra space, all of
which you can find in our knowledge base online. For now, see the
below diagrams for help on dealing with a bowed wall.
