How to Choose
- Shelf pin diameter and the matching drilling hole size (5mm is standard, 1/4" common in the US)
- Shelf thickness and material (wood, melamine, or glass)
- Load per shelf and number of support points
- Adjustable line-boring vs fixed positions
- Concealed vs visible support style
- Glass shelf support with a cushioned or clamped seat
- Cabinet, bookcase, or closet application
Material Options
Nickel-plated steel and zinc supports carry the most load; clear polycarbonate suits glass and display work where the support should disappear.
Finish Options
Nickel and clear are the usual choices. For glass and display cabinets, a clear or chrome support keeps the look clean.

Installation Notes
Line-bore the cabinet sides at 32mm spacing using a jig, insert the pins at the chosen height, and seat the shelf. For glass, add the cushioned seat so the pin does not contact the glass directly.
