Shelving & Shelf Supports
Shelving and shelf supports are something we all live with but probably never really notice, until that shelf falls away from the wall. Bookcase shelving strip, plug in shelf supports, concealed shelf supports, folding shelf brackets, double slot ‘Spur’ type shelving, glass shelf supports and just plain shelf brackets, all do an amazing job of keeping our belonging off the floor and we just take them for granted. The most popular shelving systems can be categorised in the following way;
Twin Slot Shelving
Twin slot shelving is often refereed to as Spur. Spur is a very popular make of the traditional double slot shelving, upright and bracket. Other makes are Element and Elfa.
Adjustable Bookcase Strip
Adjustable bookcase strip is commonly found in bespoke shelf units around either the home or office, flat, recessed or surface mounted strip is used in conjunction with shelf studs, to give an infinitely variable shelf layout.
Fixed Shelf Supports and Brackets
Standard shelf brackets from the simple ‘London Pattern’ shelf bracket to the more ornate and decorative bracket are available for traditional shelves along with more contemporary ‘Pelican’ style clamping shelf brackets for wood or glass
Concealed Shelf Supports
A designer’s favourite the minimalist appeal of concealed or invisible shelf supports attracts the more style conscious of us. Ideal for display shelving in bedrooms and kitchens they support shelves which carry lightweight items.
Plug in Shelf Supports.
Plug in shelf supports are used extensively in kitchen and wardrobe units. When used with a series of pre-drilled holes they are easily adjusted and offer a discreet shelving solution.
