Thanks. Brackets will be ok as plan would be for each shelf to have min of 3 max of 5 and total load per shelf could be absolutely max 100kg, so even at 3 that's 33.3kg per bracket within tolerance in one instance, in another it would be 20kg per bracket. The thing i cant find is what load the...

Contacted 2 manufacturers and neither can be bothered to respond. They will hopefully only be screwed into the studs. Also need to know it...
