What Are These Called?


Recommended Posts

I'm looking to build a few shelves for my living room and instead of buying all the shelving and brackets I thought I'd make them.. however for some reason my old mind can't remember what the little brackets are called to hang the shelf brackets up.. See photo below.. I'm looking for the little metal brackets to put onto the shelf bracket to hang them. Figured I have a boat load of Walnut to use up and my wife wanted me to put up some dark colored shelves.. well I should be able to make it all except those brackets. I know I searched them out years ago for some scrolling projects but for the life of me can't remember what they call them to search for them now.

If I were you I would route your own in. Every shelf I made when I was selling I routed my own keyholes in. here is a few jigs I made for the shelves I made. They make keyhole holders for pegboards too that I hade to use a few times when I displayed in stores. My shelves that I used for displays all were hung with key holes. You have to route that bracket anyway or else it makes the top of shelf sit proud and has a lean to it. If you route them it is more professional looking and sits flush on the wall. They have different size key hole bits too. Now there are many ways to find these holes when hanging the shelves too. Some do alot of measuring and some use tape but you have to plan on your anchors too.
