Retail shelves
Retail shelving comes in various shapes, sizes and forms. The gondola, for example, has been the shelving flagship of the retail industry for a good many years now. Typically gondola retail shelving will have a six to seven inches high front toe. Leveling screws, under the legs, helps keep the shelves on an even keel. The gondola will also have sturdy, steel uprights which will allow shelving to be erected to a height of twelve feet without extenders and the entire system has a strong and durable construction.
Another advantage of buying the gondola shelving system is that welded end trim in starter sections means that the retailer will never have to replace or buy another end trim, the shelves are adjustable and there are a number of back panels from which to choose. It is possible to shorten or lengthen the run of gondola shelving without disturbing the whole display. Most retailers have appreciated this time saving feature. The type of retailer that find the gondola shelving system well suited to their particular needs are; convenience or grocery stores, DIY stores, chemists and pets supplies shops.
The other popular type of retail shelving is standard shelving. It has built-in one and a quarter inch price tag moulding. The shelf brackets will be welded to the shelves. There are two positions available for the shelves; horizontal and an 18 degree down slant. Standard shelves will slide in and out without disturbing their neighbouring shelves and are reinforced with welded support channels.
