Anyone have ANY idea where I could find these?!?!?!

So, there I am in B&Q the other day looking at shelves and just didnt find what I was looking for. So I go to strole out of their store when I walk through their bathroom department... where I see a long shelf holding up a number of sinks.... so I think to myself... how are they supported then?? I look underneath... BINGO! The exact bracket Im looking for... so I ask an assistant if they sell them or where I could get them, to which they respond they do not sell them and have no idea where id find them, all they no is it would have been supplied by their store fitters, and they didnt know who they were!

Iv done a load of searching on the internet and for the life of me I cant find these anywhere, does anyone know where I could get them????

Thanks!!

Well the guy i asked was pritty adiment that they didnt ie a bracket that fits directly to the wall without needing an extra piece. And iv looked in focus, and again, its just standard 2 piece shelving.

Cool thanks, why do you think he would know out of interest? Should I just send him a PM?

Thanks mate that would be deeply appreciated, I did a bit more searching last night and Ive discovered two shop fitting companies that claim to have a contract with B&Q so Im going to try and contact them tomorrow and see if it was from either of them.

yup, a deeeeep single level shelf. normal shelves you attach one part to the wall, then slot the shelf bracket into these, the part that attaches to the wall can be anything from 30cm long to 300cms long. The ones pictures above are heavy duty and attach directly to the wall, therefore not needing a 2nd part and having a strip 30cm long going up the wall when not required...

does that make sense?
