Abstract

A shelving assembly includes upright supports configured to support shelf units. The shelf units are height and angularly adjustable by way of an upright-mountable jack assembly. The shelves are supported by pivotable clip members that are removably mounted to slots formed in the upright supports. The assembly includes dividers that may be longitudinally attached to the shelf units. The dividers include a riser portion that separates adjacent packaged merchandise and a glide portion over which the packaged merchandise slides. Multiple slope angles are obtainable by jacking at least one end of a shelf unit, repositioning the clip members, and lowering the shelf unit to reengage with the clip members.
