Hi all
Am building floor-to-ceiling (2.5m-high) shelves for books, across a 3.6m wall (potential designs attached).
The shelves will be made from 18mm MDF box unit carcasses, stacked up.
To make it secure I'm planning to affix multiple battens to the (very solid brick) wall behind, and then screw the layers of units to the battens one at a time, as I layer them up (and affix them together). The floor is level.
Anything else i need to consider at all, re safety?
Thanks
