Thank you! The putting a flat edge on the top/bottom of the cleats was something I didn't think about. Now i know what thickness of wood is needed and how wide they need to be. I plan to use french cleats for wall cabinets I'm going to make for my bathroom.

🎉 thank you. You're the 1st I've viewed with detailed instructions & the music not causing a distraction. Tons of diy videos are made where the music is so loud or obnoxious that you don't listen to the purpose of the video. I would give you 100%. But, the part about the sharp edge is still not clear. So I'll give you a 98.9%. 😊.

Question for you: Can cleats lift up on one side if there's too much weight unevenly placed on the other side? I'm making a single 54" wide x 32" high unit for cube wall storage and will have a 30" metal cleat in the center. One concern my partner voiced is it lifting up if someone (like a kid) steps on one side, or puts a lot of weight only on one side. I haven't seen anyone anywhere on YT demonstrate what happens in this kind of scenario. I'm also just curious to know in general if a cleat can lift up in this way regardless of relative sizes. Thanks!

If the cleats span the whole distance as the shelf unit than I don’t see how it would lift as there’s no fulcrum (pivot point) for which the weight can act against. In your case the cleats will not span the whole distance and the cleat itself can act as a pivot point making tipping possible.
