We all know how quickly clutter can build up in your home or office when there is nowhere specific to store your belongings. And before you know it, things can start piling up, making it difficult to keep your space organised and making it even easier to lose track of your essentials.
Luckily, Rothley has plenty of shelving options to help minimise floor clutter by getting your belongings off the ground and making better use of your vertical space. In this blog, we explore the different shelving options available to help you create a cleaner, more organised space. Let's go!
Shelving Ideas & Kits:
Twinslot Kits are certainly the most effective way to save space. They are flexible and durable shelving solutions that let you adapt your layout to your walls design. Make shelves longer, taller, or closer to the ground; easily adjust the bracket to the upright to suit your storage need efficiently.
They are perfect for utility rooms, homes, offices, and even retail displays because they can hold up to 50kg load rating. As well as this, they are available on our website in 6 different colours. Antique Brass, Polished Copper, Matt White, Matt Black, Krome and Antique Copper.
Brackets:
At Rothley, we have over 10 shelving brackets available on our website, including:
- London Brackets
- Cantilever Brackets
- Mitred Brackets
- Heavy Duty Brackets
- Rustic Arch Brackets
- Tapered Arch Brackets
- Roman Bracket With Hook
- Belt Bracket
- Ornate Brackets
- Pipe Shelving Brackets
- Alcove Brackets
- Twin Slot Shelving Brackets
- Industrial Bottom Flat Bar Bracket
- Twin Curve Bracket
They are perfect for bulky-free/cabinet style storage, as the shelves are open spaced, which not only makes them great for daily use but they also open up your space a lot more. Out of all these brackets, we wanted to explore 4 of them even more:
Roman Bracket With Hook:
The Roman Bracket offers more than meets the eye. With its protruding hook at the end of the bracket, easily hang lightweight items like keys, lanyards, or tea towels on your shelf for maximum storage. It is available in 2 finishes with 3 sizes available.
Belt Bracket:
The Belt Bracket uses flat geometry to provide a clean 'floating' look to your shelving, giving a slimmer appearance. Its slim design reduces visual bulk under shelves, making them look a lot more open in the space.
Industrial Bottom Flat Bar Bracket:
The flat-bar steel bracket is very different from normal shelving brackets. Its 'flat bottom' description means that instead of being curved or rounded, the base is flat and the shelf sits on top.
London Brackets:
London Brackets are simple, yet classic-designed brackets that inject colour and personality into your shelving space. Available in 6 finishes, they offer a contemporary open-shelving bracket design, with a lightweight feel.

Wall-Mounted Storage and Hooks:
Wall storage is not just about adding brackets and a shelf to your walls. Hooks, pegs and storage units can also be mounted to the wall, helping you make the most of your space and keep everything neatly organised.
Wall-Mounted Shelving Unit:
Still craving that late 80's bulky shelving cabinet aesthetic but with a modern touch? The Wall Mounted Shelving Unit is perfect because it creates an airy and uncluttered look. Suited to office spaces or retail spaces, the double or triple-shelf options mean that the design adapts effortlessly to any space, and its Matt Black steel build blends in well with any home style.
Storage Hook - 6 Piece Set:
This 6 hook set is ideal for organising a variety of tools and other items in your shed, garage, utility room or van. Each hook supports 5kg, making it ideal for holding your average, everyday essentials.
3 Peg Hook:
Available in 4 finishes, the 3 peg hook is perfect for storing your easy-to-lose essentials like house keys, car keys and more.
Hook Rail - 4 Hooks:
And our final shelving option from Rothley is similar to the one above: the 4-hook rail. This storage solution is ideal because it offers double the hooks, allowing you to hang coats, bags, umbrellas and more. Manufactured from aluminium, this hook rail combines a lightweight construction with dependable performance.
Conclusion:
So, whether you are looking to make use of the smallest space in your hallway, or need an organised essentials wall in your office, the right shelving options can make all the difference. There are so many ways to make use of unused wall space. But that is not all. Looking to maximise your space further?
