Unlike the older brackets, the new ones only have 4 holes for screws. And if I recall correctly, they are 12 inches apart. That played a major factor in regards to where I placed my shelves. I'd initially wanted to place the shelves on a wall with just drywall and studs, but since the holes were placed so close together, I wasn't able to. I planned on using my shelves as a book display (if you check out my very first video, you can see them in the background), I needed them to hold a significant amount of weight. I didn't want to risk drilling one side into the stud and the other side into the drywall, using just an anchor and a screw. At that point, I wasn't even familiar with toggle bolts, so that wasn't an option. I ended up placing it on another wall that had a concrete backing. So don't forget to keep in mind both what type of wall you plan on placing your shelf and what type of screws/anchors you have. Read the instructions on Ikea's website so you can figure out how much weight you can put on your Lack. If you have any questions about the Lack shelf, leave them in the comments section and I'll answer you as best I can!
