Abstract
A slant shelf system features a slatwall with slats separated by grooves. Each groove contains two or more channels. An adapter clip features two or more slits and a lip sized to engage the channels. A shelf features side, front and rear walls. The rear wall includes a flange attached to its upper end. Tabs extend down from the flange and are sized to engage the slits of the adapter clips. By selectively positioning the lip of the adapter clips in the channels of the slatwall and the tabs of the shelf into the slits of the adapter clip, the shelf may be mounted at various tilt angles with respect to the slatwall.
