How we price it
The exact price depends on your specific model, since two items that look similar can be very different to build. The most accurate way is to send a photo of the finished item from the store website, or its model reference, when you request your quote. A $120 minimum applies per visit, so several items together in one visit is usually the best value.

Shelving units are among the most common flat-pack builds, but the back panel and bracket pin sequence is the part that most self-builds skip or get out of order. The carcass goes up first: two side panels, a top panel, and a base panel. The back panel goes in before any shelves are fitted. The back panel is what keeps the carcass square. A shelving unit without a back panel will rack out of square when loaded, and adjusting it after the shelves are in requires removing the shelves first. Bracket pins for adjustable shelves press into pre-drilled holes in the side panels at 32mm intervals. All four pins for a shelf need to be at the same height. The simplest check is to measure from the base panel to the pin centre on both sides. A pin that is one hole off on one side will cause the shelf to rock under load. The back panel on most shelving units is held by nails or staples into a rebate around the inner edge of the carcass. The panel needs to be fully seated in the rebate before the nails go in. A panel proud of the rebate on one side will prevent the unit sitting flat against the wall. Anti-tip brackets for tall shelving units attach to the rear of the top panel and to the wall stud behind the unit. The bracket needs to be in place before the unit is loaded, because a loaded unit cannot be tilted to access the back of the top panel without first removing the shelves. Coverage spans the Eastern Suburbs, Inner West, South Sydney and the inner city. Before leaving, the assembled piece gets photographed for the record.
