FAQ

If you have any other question, do not hesitate to contact us.

Do you supply hardware (screws) with the order?

Every installation is unique, and that’s exactly why we do not include screws or mounting hardware with your order.

Each wall, surface, and installation method requires a different type of screw or anchor to ensure your item is mounted securely and safely. Using the wrong type of hardware could damage your wall, compromise stability, or even cause your shelf or accent piece to fail over time.

Because of this, we recommend selecting the correct fasteners based on:

- Wall material: drywall, plaster, wood stud, concrete, brick, tile, etc.
- Weight capacity: the total weight of your item plus the objects it will hold.
- Mounting location: indoor, outdoor, humid, or temperature-variable environments.

We want your piece to last for years, and the best way to guarantee that is to use the appropriate hardware for your specific project.

If you need pre-drilled holes, we can absolutely accommodate that — but you’ll need to let us know when you place your order. Please provide:

- The exact measurements and hole placements required for your installation.
- Any special mounting preferences (e.g., wall stud alignment or bracket positioning)

Providing these details upfront allows us to customize the drilling so your item arrives ready to install with precision.

⚠️ Important: If you are unsure how to install your item safely, we strongly recommend hiring a qualified contractor or professional installer. This ensures your product is mounted securely and prevents potential damage or injury

Can You Make Custom Sizes?

Absolutely! Since every piece is handcrafted right here in our shop (never factory imported), we can create custom brackets, shelves, and hooks tailored to your needs.

Just send us a message with the details—dimensions, color, application, and any special requests—and we’ll take it from there.

How long does it take to ship?
Do you offer military discounts?

Thank you to all members of our military! We offer a 10% military discount for active duty, retired, veteran, and reservist personnel. Send us a message, and we will give you a code to use!

Do you offer quantity discounts?

Yes, we offer a discount on orders of 10 or more. Please contact us with your information before you order and we can assist you.

I purchased & received my items, but now you have a sale - can it be applied to my order?

No, the sale price is only applied to orders that are placed when the sale is active.
