Setup and Installation
The Schulte 3591500 Open Slide Closet Shelving is designed for efficient closet organization. This vinyl-coated wire shelving system features a permanently attached hang rod, allowing hangers to slide freely along its length.
Tools Required (Not Included):
- Hacksaw or bolt cutters (for cutting shelving to desired lengths)
- Measuring tape
- Level
- Drill (if using fixed mount or shelf track system)

Installation Methods:
The shelving can be installed using one of two primary methods:
- Fixed Mount System: This method utilizes back clips, wall brackets, and support brackets to secure the shelving directly to the wall. Ensure all mounting points are securely fastened into wall studs or appropriate anchors (not included).
- Shelf Track Standards and Brackets System: This method involves installing vertical shelf tracks (not included) onto the wall, into which brackets are inserted to support the shelving. This offers adjustability for shelf height.
