ABSTRACT:
A modular shelf organizer for partitioning a shelf. The organizer includes a plurality of trays each having a floor and four short upright walls, and a fence for spanning adjacent trays. The fence forms a storage compartment between two trays, and prevents stored items from rolling off the shelf. The fence comprises one or more fence members further comprising a short wall having a plurality of slots. Corresponding slots are formed in right and left lateral walls of the tray. Fence members can therefore attach to a tray by friction and gravity, and are manually removable therefrom. Supports are provided to support otherwise unsupported fence members where fence members are arranged in series between two adjacent trays. A support has a slot for receiving one or two fence members, and a flared opening for guiding a fence member into the slot. Each tray has interior subdividers which interconnect in a manner similar to that attaching fence members to trays. Both trays and fence member supports have fastening material, such as adhesive or hook and loop material for securing trays and fence member supports permanently to a shelf.
