Abstract: An adjustable shelf system for installation in combination with a non-load bearing wall which does not require penetration of the wall for support is disclosed. The adjustable shelf system is particularly well suited for use in combination with non-load bearing walls of the type supported intermediate a building foundation and an upstanding load bearing frame which includes a top track member having channels for receiving studs and prefabricated wall panels. Shelves are supported on brackets which are attached to laterally spaced, upstanding tubular support legs having a channel formed within one side wall portion. A cushion strip is confined in the channel intermediate the upstanding tubular support legs and the non-load bearing wall thereby preventing abrasive contact of the tubular support legs against the adjacent wall paneling.
