The invention is directed to an intensive use furniture component having a sealing connection on a mounting surface for sealingly attaching to a floor or wall to prevent liquid from seeping under or behind the furniture component. The furniture component is formed by an outer shell having a side wall extending generally perpendicular to the mounting surface. A mounting flange is disposed adjacent the sidewall. A bolt hole is formed in the mounting flange. The sealing connection comprises a caulk channel formed as a channel in the mounting surface for receiving a bead of caulk to fill the seam between the mounting surface and the wall or floor to prevent fluid from seeping past the caulk channel to a space adjacent the interior mounting surface.

A nested vertical shelf mount system includes vertical bars having a first set of vertically spaced apart mounting features and a second set of vertically spaced apart mounting features spaced inside and behind the first set of vertically spaced apart mounting features. The mounting features may be any feature allowing a shelf, panel, or the like, to be attached to the vertical bars. A panel may be attached to the second set of vertically spaced apart mounting features and a shelf may be attached to the first set of vertically spaced apart mounting features residing over the panel to provide a finished appearance.

Various implementations and configurations of a user configurable modular storage apparatus are disclosed. In an example implementation, a storage apparatus comprises: a side wall and a back wall which form an interior portion of a cabinet and an opening through which the interior portion is accessible; and a pair of slotted walls comprising pairs of slots configured to receive a storage module comprising a left mounting rod and a right mounting rod, wherein the storage module is insertable into the interior portion through the opening thereby enabling a user mounting and unmounting of the storage module to a pair of slots of the pair of slotted walls.

A shelf adjustment mechanism for an appliance includes a plurality of support surfaces coupled to a shelf bracket. The shelf bracket is operable between a securing position and a recessed position. A bracket module rotationally receives the shelf bracket. The securing position of the shelf bracket is defined by a substantially horizontal orientation of the support surfaces with respect to the bracket module. An angled biasing surface is defined on the shelf bracket. The biasing surface is configured to engage a shelf as the shelf is moved vertically along the angled biasing surface. Engagement of the shelf with the angled biasing surface selectively operates the shelf bracket from the securing position to a recessed position.

The present disclosure relates to shelving units, more particularly shelving units having a lighting component that illuminates a product and/or provides ambient light. According to some aspects of the present disclosure, the shelf could be made from a transparent material and could include a lighting strip disposed in a groove in a front edge of the shelf. A power connector is provided for receiving power from a power supply. A reflective laminate could be disposed on top, front, rear, and lateral sides of the shelf. A second laminate could be disposed over the reflective laminate. A bottom surface of the shelf could be altered to evenly scatter light from the lighting strip. According to further aspects of the present disclosure, a floating shelf having a top layer, a bottom layer, and spacers, and a mounting bracket having a wall harness, hinges, and support rods are provided.
