ABSTRACT:
A locking bracket system comprises a bracket lock and a bracket. The bracket lock may be slidably positioned along the lateral length of the bracket to transition between locked and unlocked configurations. When locked, an upper cantilever tab on the bracket lock secures a wire frame shelf that is recessed in a groove on the bracket. When unlocked, the wire frame shelf is not obstructed by the bracket shelf lock and may be removed. A solid shelf may be used in combination with the locking bracket system, as the bracket shelf lock does not obstruct the shelving plane upon which the solid shelf sits.
