Abstract
A reinforcing element for a ventilated rod-type shelf mounted to a vertical support such as a wall. The reinforcing element is slidingly engaged with the shelf so as to be disposed immediately below and perpendicular to the shelf. When so engaged with the shelf, in the preferred embodiment, the reinforcing element extends substantially from the vertical support to which the shelf is mounted to a forward longitudinal rod of the shelf so as to reinforce the longitudinal rods of the shelf and hence the transverse parallel rods of the shelf in ghe widthwise direction, against deformation from vertical loading.
