Small item overstock storage system
A tiered storage system which sits atop a gondola shelf. The tiered storage system is made of a support structure having gondola shelf connectors, the gondola shelf connectors configured to removeably attach the support structure to the gondola shelf, and two or more tiers mounted on the support structure, each tier including a horizontal plane and a vertical plane, the horizontal plane being substantially perpendicular to the vertical plane. The tiered storage system can be configured with pegs or other organizational tools for helping arrange items such that surplus items being stored on the tiered storage system can be visible to customers or associates in a store aisle.
1. A tiered storage system which sits atop a horizontal gondola shelf, comprising:
a support structure having gondola shelf connector holes located at each corner of a base of the support structure,
the gondola shelf connector holes removeably attaching the support structure to the horizontal gondola shelf using connectors which respectively pass through a gondola shelf connector hole and a hole of the horizontal gondola shelf, the respective gondola shelf connector hole being aligned with the hole of the horizontal gondola shelf; and
two or more tiers mounted on the support structure, each tier including a horizontal plane and a vertical plane, the horizontal plane being substantially perpendicular to the vertical plane, and each tier in the two or more tiers having an identical width between tiers, wherein the support structure, the vertical plane, and the horizontal plane of each tier in the two or more tiers are formed using wire.
2. The tiered storage system of claim 1 , wherein the gondola shelf connector holes are located on tabs extending from the wire at the each corner of the base of the support structure.
3. The tiered storage system of claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of dividers removeably attached to the horizontal plane of each tier in the two or more tiers.
4. The tiered storage system of claim 1 , wherein the vertical plane of each tier in the two or more tiers extends higher than the horizontal plane of a next higher tier.
5. The tiered storage system of claim 4 , wherein the vertical plane of each tier in the two or more tiers contains pegs.
6. A gondola storage system comprising:
a vertical plane of a gondola shelf system;
a horizontal shelf connected to the vertical plane; and
a tiered shelf attachment made of wire, the tiered shelf attachment removeably attached to the horizontal shelf, the tiered shelf attachment comprising:
a support structure having gondola shelf connectors located at each corner of a base of the support structure, the gondola shelf connectors configured to removeably attach the support structure to the horizontal shelf by passing through a gondola shelf connector hole and a hole of the horizontal shelf, the respective gondola shelf connector hole being aligned with the hole of the horizontal shelf;
two or more tiers mounted on the support structure, each tier including a horizontal segment and a vertical segment, the horizontal segment being substantially perpendicular to the vertical segment, each tier in the two or more tiers having an identical width between tiers;
a side support piece which connects the two or more tiers to the support structure;
a plurality of dividers removeably attached to the horizontal segment of each tier in the two or more tiers, each divider in the plurality of dividers held in place by tabs which extend under the horizontal segment of the tier in which the divider is located.
7. The gondola storage system of claim 6 , wherein there are three tabs for each divider.
8. The gondola storage system of claim 7 , wherein the wire is formed into a grid, and the three tabs extend in parallel to the grid from a respective divider, with one of the three tabs extending in an opposite direction from the respective divider than the other two tabs.
9. The gondola storage system of claim 6 , wherein the vertical segment of each tier extends higher than the horizontal segment of a next higher tier.
10. The gondola storage system of claim 9 , wherein the vertical segment of each tier in the two or more tiers contains pegs.
11. A tiered storage system, comprising:
a structure having connectors which connect to a horizontal gondola shelf to hold the structure in place on the horizontal gondola shelf, the connectors configured to removeably attach the structure to the horizontal gondola shelf, the connectors located at each corner of a base of the structure;
two or more tiers mounted on the structure, each tier having a horizontal plane and a vertical plane, the horizontal plane being substantially perpendicular to the vertical plane, and each tier in the two or more tiers having an identical width between tiers; and
a plurality of dividers removeably attached to the horizontal plane of each tier in the two or more tiers, each divider in the plurality of dividers held in place by tabs which extend under the horizontal plane of the tier in which the divider is located,
wherein the structure, the vertical plane, and the horizontal plane of each tier in the two or more tiers are formed using wire,
wherein the wire is formed into a grid,
wherein there are three tabs for each divider and the three tabs extend in parallel to the grid from a respective divider, with one of the three tabs extending in an opposite direction from the respective divider than the other two tabs,
the structure being removeably attached to the horizontal gondola shelf using connectors which respectively pass through a gondola shelf connector hole and a hole of the horizontal gondola shelf, the respective gondola shelf connector hole being aligned with the hole of the horizontal gondola shelf.
12. The tiered storage system of claim 11 , wherein the vertical plane of each tier extends higher than the horizontal plane of a next higher tier.
