Schluter-SHELF-E-S1 are triangular shelves for installation in corners.

They are available in the design variants FLORAL, CURVE, PURE, SQUARE and WAVE in the finish choices brushed stainless steel or TRENDLINE powder coated aluminium.

The shelves can be integrated into the tile assembly during tile installation or retrofitted into the joints of tiled walls, using the 2 mm attachment tabs.

SHELF-E-S1 are suitable as shelves in shower areas, but can also be integrated into other tiled areas such as tiled kitchen walls. It can be used as a storage shelf in all tiled wall areas (e.g., showers, tiled kitchen surfaces).

Schlüter-SHELF-E are shelves in three different shapes for installation in corners. The shelves can be directly integrated into the tile assembly during tile installation or retrofitted into the joints of tiled walls, using the 2 mm attachment wings.

The specified corner installation and an application of silicone ensures optimum load transfer.

How to look after this product

Schlüter-SHELF requires no special maintenance or care. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents on the sensitive surfaces.

Stainless steel surfaces exposed to the environment or aggressive substances should be cleaned periodically using a mild household cleaner. Regular cleaning maintains the neat appearance of stainless steel and reduces the risk of corrosion.

All cleaning agents must be free of hydrochloric and hydrofluoric acid.

Avoid contact with other metals, such as regular steel, to prevent corrosion. This also includes installation tools such as trowels or steel wool, e.g. for the removal of mortar residue.

How to install this product

Corner – direct integration as part of tile installation

1. Install the tile covering with a joint width of ≥ 2 mm.
2. Once the tile adhesive has set, position SHELF-E and mark the tile, moving about 1 cm from the outside edge of the shelf toward the inside. Remove the shelf during grout application to protect it against staining. Leave the joints in the marked area open.
3. Once the grout material has set, the shelf can be put in its final position.
4. Apply a silicone bead around it on all sides.
5. Observe the curing time of the silicone bead before using the shelf.

Corner - retrofit installation

1. Determine the joint where SHELF-E is to be placed.
2. Now mark the areas where no grout will be applied to accommodate the attachment wings.
3. Grind the tile joint with a suitable tool (grooving tool, angle grinder etc.).
   Caution: Watch the depth of the cut to avoid damaging any waterproofing layers installed behind the tiles.
4. Position the shelf and apply a silicone bead around it on all sides.
5. Observe the curing time of the silicone bead before using the shelf.
