but then I end up with the shelves where I don't want them, but otherwise a good plan
probably a good call. They do the butterfly ones here and I think Screwfix do them, so I'll wander down in the morning. The clever bit is that there's a thin plastic string that holds the butterfly in place so you don't need a super long screw
Is it a brick wall behind? I went for some 6 inch fixings that expanded in the blockwork.(can't remember exactly which but available in all the usual places)
When you do find a fastening, be careful not to overload the shelves. It's not unknown to pull the boards down, esp if some cheapjack builder has just dot and dabbed a bit of no nails on the studs instead of screwing, all to save 5 minutes.
