(There is an optional step here where you could glue the "R2" and "L2" assemblies together, but it doesn't seem to add much to the stability. I wouldn't recommend gluing the entire thing together because you'll have to destroy it to get it off the wall.)

Measure 7" up from the floor (or more if you wear a lot of boots) and mark a line as the bottom of the shelf. Reassemble the rack and use it as a guide to mark the screw holes, then take the cross bars off and attach the back pieces from the previous step to the wall.

Run a drywall screw straight through the inside of the elbow connector, through the drilled hole and into the wall.

Do the screws one at a time, and check for fit, square and level between them.
