FAQ
Will Shelfside fit my furniture?
Shelfside works best on flat, sturdy shelves, desks, cabinets, and bookcases. The board should be up to 35 mm / 1.38 in thick, with at least 50 mm / 1.97 in of flat edge depth.
Do I need to drill holes?
No. Shelfside uses a clamp-on design, so you do not need to drill into walls, shelves, cabinets, or desks.
Will it damage my furniture?
Shelfside includes protective pads designed to help reduce scratches and pressure marks. For best results, install it on a flat, sturdy surface and avoid overtightening.
Where can I install it?
It is designed for flat furniture edges such as shelves, desks, cabinets, bookcases, and similar sturdy surfaces. Avoid rounded, soft, glass, uneven, or unstable edges.
Is it suitable for renters?
Yes. The no-drill clamp-on setup makes it easy to move, adjust, or take with you when you relocate.
OUR STORY
Why Shelfside began
Most cat furniture is bulky, hard to place, or made for homes with extra space.
