A shelving unit comprises a shelf and a shelf anchor for securing the shelf to an adjacent wall. The shelf has a peripheral rim that extends along at least a portion of the length of the shelf. The shelf has at least one internal lateral support member extending generally perpendicularly to the rim. The shelf anchor includes a base and a shelf-retainer. The base is adapted to be mounted to the wall. The shelf-retainer extends from the base. A retaining portion of the shelf-retainer is spaced from a front side of the base to define a rim-receiving recess between the base and the retaining portion of the shelf-retainer. The shelf anchor is positioned relative to the shelf so that at least a portion of the peripheral rim is received within the rim-receiving recess in a manner to prevent the shelf from moving outwardly from the wall when the shelf anchor is mounted to the wall. The shelf-retainer includes a lateral positioner. The shelf anchor is positioned relative to the shelf so that at least a portion of the lateral support member engages with the positioner in a manner to prevent sideways movement of the shelf relative to the wall when the shelf anchor is mounted to the wall.

Adjustable shelf anchor

A shelving unit comprises a shelf and a shelf anchor for securing the shelf to an adjacent wall. The shelf has a generally vertical peripheral rim. The shelf anchor includes a base and a shelf retainer. The base has opposite front and rear sides. The rear side of the base has a wall-engaging portion adapted for flush engagement with the wall. The shelf retainer has a bridge portion and a shelf-retaining portion. The bridge portion extends outwardly from the front side of the base. The shelf-retaining portion extends generally vertically from a distal end of the bridge portion. The shelf-retaining portion is spaced from the front side of the base to define a rim-receiving recess between the front side of the base and the shelf-retaining portion. The shelf retainer is positioned relative to the shelf so that at least a portion of the peripheral rim is received within the rim-receiving recess. The rim is received within the recess in a manner to prevent the shelf from moving outwardly from the wall when the shelf anchor is mounted to the wall.
