HOVR Solutions Classic 23.75” (2-Foot), Aluminum Floating Shelf Bracket System, 300LB Load Capacity, Hidden Support Bracket Up to 31” Shelf, 1-Pack

This is a great product that performs precisely as advertised. However, every construction/installation detail is important, particularly for long shelves. My installation involved a 21 foot mantel (21’ x 9.5” x 2.25”) weighing approximately 175 lbs. I used four 2 foot equally spaced sections of HOVR bracket that were shimmed against the wall as directed. End-To-End planar and level orientation was confirmed with a string. Constructing a “shelf” this long using three laminations of ¾” plywood, simple table saw, and no dado blade was a bit of a challenge and resulted in a wall mating edge that was slightly curved in one section. The HOVR mounting hardware is intolerant of this error resulting in my inability to engage one of the 2 foot sections. However, the remaining three sections were engaged and produced a very secure mantel. This is an excellent product and I would use it again, but also pull a string on the shelf mating edge to ensure that it is absolutely flat.

The HOVR Solutions Aluminum Floating Shelf All-in-One Installation Bit Pack is fantastic! The steel drill bit and tap are high-quality, making installation quick and easy. The instructions are clear, and everything you need is included. My floating shelves are now sturdy and look amazing. Highly recommend this all-in-one solution! Oh, and super fast shipping!!

Product itself works just fine. It’s a bit pricey but I think it works better than those rods that you insert into your shelf in terms of longevity safety sagging/load. That being said the installation is not easy. I needed a bunch of tools bits and know how. I think they do a halfway decent job of explaining what to do in the process of getting the two pieces into the shelf and onto the wall. Some parts though are really lacking I wish they would specify how they would approach different anchor materials for example brick. They have a video on their website but it doesn’t go into detail about which anchors what size clearances and all that. If you pick a slightly too large anchor head be prepared to make modifications. The look is great no sagging visible. Could have saved me lots of headache specifying some of that stuff.

Product great, but after fabricating profile would be awesome if you compressed air to clean aluminum shavings.Open the box and shavings fell all over the floor, paid a lot for this product, lol I’m sure if I sent a built kitchen to be installed and there was wood shavings all in the cabinets I’m sure customers would be saying the same thing 👍

Such a disappointment! Had two Hovr brackets installed on 2" thick live edge floating shelves. The brackets are aluminum which bends easily and so they have too much play in them, causing the shelves to have about 1/4 inch of movement up and down. Feels like 20lbs would rip it right off the wall. Total waste of time and money having them professionally routered out by a wood working shop and installed by my contractor who said they were garbage. Wasted $2000 worth of custom live edge.

The mounting brackets are pretty heavy duty. Easy to use. A couple of things I didn’t like are the shelf has to be thicker than one inch, because that’s how wide the bracket is. You can see where the access holes are that tightens the two pieces of the mount, that you make in your shelf. I guess you could put a plug in place but might be a challenge to remove plug when you remove the shelf.

A little finicky if the wall isn’t completely flat.

This is a very strong design. Suggest checking length versus your actual shelve installation.
