Shelves

The two shelves are almost identical, differing in that 1) they are mirror-images of each other, and 2)

the left shelf includes a stabilizer bar. Each shelf is a two-piece mechanism. The base includes the

surface upon which the switch is placed and is oriented towards the front of the rack. The slide-end

adjusts the shelf’s length for fitting the shelf between front and rear posts of various size racks.
