Gravity Feed for Mother’s Day

Posted by Tony Kadysewski in Shelf Edge Fixtures, Shelf Management Systems and tagged with

Gravity Feed Kickout Main

Vertical columns automatically gravity feed “styling goo.” The base of each column, however, features a kickoff to position each container slightly forward to expose lid graphics and create the impression each package is offering itself to you. See the right-most above for correct final position. Styling goo might be fun. I wonder if my wife would appreciate for Mothers Day?

Thin-Wall Tray for Corrugated

Posted by Tony Kadysewski in Hooks: Specialty, Shelf Edge Fixtures, Shelf Management Systems and tagged with , ,

Thin Wall Gift Card Tray Main

I have seen thin-walled clear plastic like this in other uses. Maybe I just never noticed it in a corrugated point-of-purchase display for Gift Cards. Economical I’ll bet. What fascinated me the most were the die-cut lugs that instead into the corrugated slots. Click through the gallery of photos below to get a look for yourself.

Ribbon Reels in Gravity Feed

Posted by Tony Kadysewski in Shelf Management Systems and tagged with ,

Another example of sideways, or stacked, feed of spools. In this case the spools are wide ribbon for crafts, wreaths and gift wrapping in a craft store. The system provides an organized way to shop the various patterns, colors, degrees of sheerness and width. See the narrowest widths and spools bottom left.

Gravity Feed for Clothes Line

Posted by Tony Kadysewski in Shelf Management Systems and tagged with ,

Clothes Line Rope Gravity Feed Aux

Clothes Line Rope Gravity Feed Overview'Even simple items can be merchandised more interestingly with a bit of thought and ingenuity. Here hanks of plain, ordinary Clothes Line Rope are billboarded and dispensed by gravity feed. To satisfy every need, two lengths are offered at two different price points. This display does a lot with very little. Wish I had thought of it. CLICK the thumbnail for an alternate view of the vend.

White-Wash Wood for Belts

Posted by Tony Kadysewski in Shelf Edge Fixtures, Shelf Management Systems and tagged with

I could certainly use this white-washed wood tray to organize belts in my accessory drawer at home. The tray doesn’t do a bad job here in-store either. As with most such posts here on FixturesCloseUp, the tray is a visual device for elevating, and focusing attention on a tabletop cross sell. Here belt styles are grouped so as not to visually confuse the offering. CLICK the thumbnail for a closeup view.

To Round-Corner Or Not?

Posted by Tony Kadysewski in Shelf Management Systems and tagged with ,

Micro Extruded Shelf Management Detail

Micro Extruded Shelf Management MainFor small items that nevertheless benefit from organization and containment, inexpensive extruded dividers accomplish the goal at low space- and dollar-cost. Often seen in HBA, extrusions do a good job here in Craft Supplies too. Do note that both square- and round-cornered dividers are in use. I suggest to you round-cornering projects a far better store image and reduces admittedly minor snags. So if a new vender comes in low-balling your divider bid, investigate if it is by elimination manufacturing steps. If round-cornering and image really don’t matter, go for the cheap offer. If you want to look just a bit better at only slight extra cost, round-corner it.

Space Frame Details in Outdoor

Posted by Tony Kadysewski in Hooks: Specialty, Shelf Management Systems and tagged with , ,

Space Frame Divider Main 1

Great use of a Space Frame to corral outdoor gear. The merchandise stands well organized for selection. The Divider front attachment was a detail of interest. But the unusual Divider Backplate was even more unique. Notice only the lugs engage the Pegboard holes, but the backplate angles away from the surface. I think I should go back for a better closeup and comment at that point at length. Meanwhile click through the gallery of photos below for an overview of the display.

Space Frame Corrals Mops

Posted by Tony Kadysewski in Hooks: Specialty, Shelf Management Systems and tagged with , , ,

Broom and Mop Space Frame Main

Mops are suspended via Heavy-Duty Loop Utility Hooks above, and corralled low with a simple space frame which also creates surface for item labeling and pricing. If it were me I would have mounted the space frame a notch or two higher on the gondola upright. But that is a subjective not objective choice. The frame is meant to keep mop handles contained and prevent accidental extension inrio the travel aisle. Mounting a notch or two higher would better insure that, even though these items seem well-behaved on their own. CLICK through the gallery below for more photo details.

Do-It-Yourself store fixtures occasionally catch my eye and clammer for inclusion.

Gravity-Feed for Salsa 3-Pak

Posted by Tony Kadysewski in Shelf Management Systems and tagged with ,

Gravity Feed Snack Aisle Salsa Main

A great deal of thought went into the Salsa gravity-feed cross sell rak, even if not initially obvious. Its minimal footprint allowed it to sneak directly into the center of the snack aisle. The shelf angle fed three-packs slowly but perfectly without any need for low-friction slide mat, or spring-feed. And a curved front productstop would increase item visibility when merchandising single jars in three separate facings. The C-Channel profile builds in enough strength for the label holder to be product stop for an entire shelf of heavy glass bottles, plus of course it accepts labels or promotional strip. Finally the best aspect: it makes three Salsa sales not just one!

Endless Ledge for Cap Merchandising

Posted by Tony Kadysewski in Hooks, Hooks: Specialty, Shelf Edge Fixtures, Shelf Management Systems and tagged with , , , ,

Reminiscent of Endless Basket fixtures, this continuos white hat rack runs the perimeter of a specialty shop. Though it appears to mount to the grey Slatwall behind, CLICK the thumbnail to see upright wall stanchions are the true support. Too bad.

Dish Cloths Divided

Posted by Tony Kadysewski in Shelf Management Systems and tagged with , , ,

I might not think to start my store organization with Dish and Wash Cloths but it certainly is an improvement nonetheless. Imagine these stacks of cloths unmanaged, falling over, mixed and in disarray. Though difficult to put completely in any one category, I choose to call this an Endless Basket. The dividers and ends clip on in an uncommon way. CLICK the thumbnail for a closeup view of the assembly. Then branch to additional dividers below.

Diagonal Dividers As Backstop

Posted by Tony Kadysewski in Shelf Management Systems and tagged with ,

Fencing, Wire Shelf Management Dividers and brand specific Made-to-Order Wireframe systems have all been featured on Fixtures Close Up. These Diagonal Divider / Backstops are a horse of a different color. True they do divide and backstop product lanes. They also allow facings to overlap to increase product density while fostering shelf scanability. Note that there is only one anchor to shelf edge perforation, but extra support gained by butting the frames against the shelf rear.
