Some tools that will be needed to install it include a screw driver, or drill with screw driver bit, a tape measure, a stud finder and the hardware to install the shelves.
These may not come with any instructions. Typically there are pre drilled holes for the hardware to be screwed into. Finding the studs in the wall can be done by using the stud finder or by measuring the space between the walls where the studs will be located. The distance between studs will be approximately twelve to sixteen inches on center. They need to be screwed securely into the studs so that there is enough support for the shelves. Once they are in place the shelves can be placed on the brackets and secured, some shelves do not require to be fastened because they simply lay on it. Screws should be used to secure it into the wall with anchors if the walls are sheet rock, this will insure that the screws adhere properly to the wall.
