Apparatus and method facilitate placement of shelves at selected levels in a merchandise display and dispensing unit. At least one shelf is secured in place in a horizontal, level orientation at a selected level to locate a point-of-purchase at a selected height within the unit. A locking mechanism located adjacent a distal edge of the shelf locks the shelf at the selected level and is operated by an actuator extending essentially from adjacent one to adjacent the other end of the shelf, beneath the shelf, conveniently accessible by an operator from a proximal edge of the shelf while supporting the shelf in an essentially balanced manner so as to enable manual movement for relocating the shelf to the selected level without disturbing items placed on the shelf. A leveling system is coupled to the shelf to maintain the shelf in the horizontal, level orientation during movement, and a damper mechanism impedes accelerated downward movement of the shelf when unlocked for selected relocation.

Provided herein are systems, methods, and apparatus related to a storage system. The storage system may include one or more cabinets having shelves including a foldable panel. The storage system may include one or more cabinets having shelves including a fixed portion and a sliding portion configured to slide relative to the fixed portion. A modular storage system may be provided including a plurality of cabinet units that may fixedly attach to each other. A locking mechanism including a locking foot and locking element may be provided for connecting multiple cabinets in a modular cabinet assembly. Some embodiments may include a drawer and secondary work surface assembly for a shelf capable of use in a cabinet.

A Self-Standing Merchandise Frame is provided for displaying merchandise items on a store and allowing the attachment of multiple racks of numerous sizes, for instance, 24 inches, 48 inches and 96 inches. The embodiment is configured of a sign plate, a first and a second vertical tubes, an upper and a lower support and a base plate which structurally support the self-standing of the frame. Depend on the particular application, Self-Standing Merchandise Frame could be assembled as a single stand or a double stand, without any limitation and restriction.

A shelf includes a shelf support plate, an insulator formed at least partially of a first electrically insulating material, a first fastener, a second fastener and a shelf brace. The shelf support plate, the first fastener, the second fastener, and the shelf brace are formed at least partially of electrically conductive material. The shelf support plate includes a first aperture wall. The insulator includes second and third aperture walls. The shelf brace includes a brace plate, a shelf hook that extends from the brace plate, and a fourth aperture wall through the shelf brace. The insulator mounts between the shelf support plate and the shelf brace using the first fastener inserted into the first and second aperture walls and the second fastener inserted into the fourth and third aperture walls. The shelf hook connects to an electrical connector to provide current to the shelf brace.

The present disclosure relates to a flexible cover strip for a storage system including a carrier rail (1) having a U-shaped cross section with first and second parallel rows (3, 5) of elongated substantially identical slots (7) in a front portion to accommodate a suspension element such as e.g. a bracket. The cover strip has an abutment face (17) and an exterior face (31), and a plurality of projections (19), rising from the abutment surface of the strip in first and second parallel rows matching the slots of the carrier rail, such that the cover strip can be fitted on the front portion with the projections entering the slots, and wherein at least some of the projections are provided with a snap element (27) at their distal ends, which snap elements prevent the cover strip from falling off the rail.
