Use these sturdy handcrafted picture ledges to display books, pictures, art, figurines, collectibles and more. Ledges measure 2.5" on the back, 5.0 base (usable space) and 1.5" front lip and are made of solid Pine. The entire ledge depth from wall to front is 6.5”. Ledges mount through the back using pre-drilled holes and are simple to hang. Pre-drilled holes are 16" apart (which is standard with most stud distances). Screws for mounting into studs (recommended) are included as well as sheetrock inserts. Mounting hardware is rated for 25lbs per set of two studs. This mounting hardware included is optional and you may choose to use your own (molly bolts, etc) Ledges that are 96" or longer are made as one long piece, then cut in the center for shipment. Dowels are inserted on one ledge end for attachment prior to mounting.
