Know before you buy
Yes, these units are designed as wall-mounted shelves. Secure installation is required to ensure the stability of the ladder structure and to support the weight capacity of the shelves.
While the product description mentions adjustable shelves, please note that the Theo series typically features fixed shelf positions to maintain structural integrity. We recommend verifying your specific storage needs against the fixed height intervals before assembly.
Yes, each shelf is rated to support up to 55 lbs, provided the unit is installed correctly into wall studs or with appropriate anchors. This makes them sturdy enough for heavy books, ceramic decor, or small storage bins.
The finish is a smooth, clean Matte White achieved with NC paint. It offers a soft, non-reflective appearance that helps the shelves blend seamlessly into white walls for a floating, minimalist aesthetic.
Absolutely. While the set of three creates a cohesive look when grouped together, each unit is a standalone piece. You can easily distribute them throughout your home to maintain a consistent design language in different spaces.
The bookshelf comes with the necessary hardware, but you will need a screwdriver and a drill for wall mounting. We recommend having a level on hand to ensure the ladder frame is perfectly vertical during installation.
