Abstract: A storage system including a novel shelf and bracket item holder is provided where the item holder is supported upon a planar panel. The shelf has two end edges and two shelf-brackets which include a substantially circumferential flange, a receptacle portion for receiving one of the end edges of the shelf, and an upper panel catch and a lower panel catch projecting outwardly from a same side of the circumferential flange in aligned spaced relation to one another. A cantilevered lock-release latch is positioned adjacent to the lower panel-catch so as to project from an end of the circumferential flange toward the lower panel-catch.

Abstract: A storage system including a shelf and bracket item holder where the item holder is supported upon a planar panel. The shelf has two end edges and two shelf-brackets which include a substantially circumferential flange, a receptacle portion for receiving one of the end edges of the shelf, and an upper panel catch and a lower panel catch projecting outwardly from a same side of the circumferential flange in aligned spaced relation to one another. A cantilevered lock-release latch is positioned adjacent to the lower panel-catch so as to project from an end of the circumferential flange toward the lower panel-catch. When each of the upper and lower panel-catches are inserted through and occupy a corresponding one of the perforations in the panel such that each of the lock-release tabs of the lock-release latches engages the outer surface of the perforated panel thereby deflecting the lock-release latches away from the perforated panel, the shelf and brackets are moved relative to the perforated panel.

Abstract: An item holder is provided for use with a perforated panel having a shank with a support arm extending outwardly from a first end and a catch located at a second end. The catch comprises a curved cantilevered strap projecting from the second end and having a stop tab located at a strap end positioned above, but spaced away from the second end. In another embodiment, a system for supporting an item on a vertically oriented structure is provided including a substantially planar board having a plurality of spaced perforations, where each perforation is defined by at least an internal top edge and an internal bottom edge of the board. An item holder is with a slot defined through the underside of the cantilevered strap between a top portion of the shank and the second end of the cantilevered strap so that when the item holder is located within one of the plurality of perforations, the slot engages the internal bottom edge of the board.
