Create a crystal clear retail display for your merchandise by using Capitol Hardware's transparent plastic shelf rests with clear cushions on your glass shelves. By reducing the distraction of metal shelf rests, your presentation will sparkle. Only available at Capitol Hardware, LLC. Just .65/each.
Since there are many variables involved, it is not possible to give a single one-size-fits-all answer to this popular question. However, here are four steps to help you decide which store fixture best meets your need.
1. Choose Your Gauge
Capitol Hardware's perimeter hardware line is categorized according to gauge. A-line is our medium-duty collection. B-line, our heavy-duty collection and C-line is our super heavy-duty collection. Each has its own set of standards and matching brackets. The heavier the gauge, the more weight-bearing your display will be.
2. Plan Your Installation
The process in which the wall standard is installed is a huge factor in determining durability and stability. Attaching your standards to wood studs will make your display much stronger than if you attach it to metal studs. We do not recommend attaching standards with just drywall anchors.
Keep in mind longer screws will provide better stability than shorter ones. We recommend at least 2” screws. Also, the amount of space between standards will determine strength as well. The further apart your standards are set, the less weight it will support.
3. Select Your Brackets
Brackets also help determine weight capacity. Two weight-bearing factorsThe larger the bracket is where it connects to the standard, as well as the length of the bracket, are both weight-bearing factors.
4. Consider Your Product Weight
Keep in mind that distribution of weight on the brackets themselves could affect the stability of the display. Obviously, placing items further from the wall creates more stress on the bracket. Make sure you know what you are going to set on the shelves and how it will be laid out in order to help you decide which perimeter hardware line will best suit your need.

We truly appreciate your business and patience during our re-launching phase of Capitol Hardware. When the company closed its doors on October 31, 2015, purchasing director James Sawyer knew there was still a great need for Capitol Hardware products. Having been with the company for 27 years, Sawyer made the decision to re-launch Capitol Hardware as an LLC. His product knowledge, connections and open communication with customers have become the foundation of the newly established retail hardware provider.
