IKEA Algot System: How many brackets on the rail?

Hello,

I have a question about the Algot system and hope to get a quick answer here.

I would like to know how many brackets I can fit at most on a 1.96m long rail if I really use every possibility to create a shelf there (even if it would be very, very small, but it’s more about the theory so that I know how big the distances are). I think there are some hooks in the rail where you hook the brackets, right? Or are they infinitely adjustable?

The next Ikea store is so far away from us, and I would like to plan here at home how many and which parts exactly we need.

Many thanks

Hello, stepless adjustment is not possible. If I have not mistaken when closely examining the pictures on the website, one would have to be able to install a bracket every 7 cm.

Hello IKEA expert,

but you don't have the system at home, do you?
I also checked on the homepage and I see it more as every 14cm...
But I thought it wasn't clearly visible either.

Maybe someone who really has the system at home can write and quickly measure.
That would be really kind.

Thanks in advance for your effort.

No, I don't have an Algot. Take a look at the assembly instructions for the rail; you can see well how the parts are hooked into the rail and can better identify the spots in the pictures using the zoom function.
