ABSTRACT:
Loose shelves are anchored against the bottom wall of a cabinet for purpose of shipping. A clip has a flat side enabling it to be slipped, while in contact with the upper surface of the stacked shelves, into a bore in a side wall of the cabinet which bore is substantially tangent to the top of said stack. Thereupon a screwdriver slot in the end of the clip is used to rotate the clip 180.degree. positioning a flange segment on the clip between the shelves and said side wall of the cabinet. The clip has a cylindrical portion on one side of said flange segment for insertion in said bore while on the other side of said flange segment the clip flares to provide a camming portion which locks it in place upon said rotation. A plurality of said clips are used at opposite ends of said shelves. Reversal of the installation procedure enables the clips to be removed and the shelves to be freed.
