Abstract

A shelving system that includes a plurality of horizontal support shelves and a plurality of vertical dividers wherein the vertical dividers are configured to extend vertically intermediate adjacent shelves and provide segmentation of the shelf to which the vertical divider is secured. The vertical divider of the shelving system includes a first portion and a second portion wherein the second portion is slidably secured within the interior volume of the first portion. The first portion includes a front wall having a slot formed therein wherein a slider is movably secured within the slot and is operable to provide adjustment of the second portion so as to alter the height of the vertical divider. The vertical dividers include a first fastener and a second fastener secured to opposing ends thereof that are operable to releasably secure the vertical dividers.
