Accessorise your shop shelving


Shelving4shops has an extensive range of shelving accessories - all of which can be seen at our Leicestershire shop shelving showroom. There are so many ways to accessorise your store, from acrylic risers to shopping baskets, helping to complete the look of your shop and organise your stock.


These are used to stop your items falling off your shelves and are generally used for confectionery. Adding a riser to a shelf enables you to tilt the shelf so that customers can easily see what is available. These give a clean finish and are excellent for a store with a modern look.


Chrome shelf risers can also be used when tilting your shelves. They are regularly used to stop cans or bottles accidentally being knocked off shelves. This means you can put your baked beans right to the edge of the shelf! Chrome shelf risers are very hard wearing, so are much better for heavier stock. To accompany your chrome shelf risers, you could also consider chrome shelf dividers which will allow you to divide your shelves for smaller packets and boxes to stop products from getting mixed up.



Wire stacking baskets are a great use of space and can be placed anywhere in your store. You can either use them as stand-alone units, place them onto your shelves to create a bigger storage space for awkward-shaped produce which does not easily fit onto a standard shelf. Wire stacking baskets are a versatile and useful addition to any store and are often used for fresh produce like fruit and vegetables. You can even attach castors to the bottom of your stacking baskets so that they can be wheeled in and out of your store.


Not the prettiest of names but a dump bin is an excellent use of store space. Special offers, discontinued stock, crisps and a whole manner of other things can be put into prime positions in your store using dump bins. You could place a dump bin next to the counter or have a run of special offers leading up the first aisle.  Such a versatile and cheap product should be taken advantage of to maximum effect in your store.


Space is always at a premium in the retail industry, so if you have a small gap that needs filling, a tiered set of trays is a great way to fill the space. Available with 3 or 5 tiers, these wire trays are a great alternative if you do not have the volume of stock to fill a whole dump bin or stacking basket. They are light and therefore easy to move around the store if you wanted to change the placement of your products.



To enable customers to browse comfortably, make sure there are shopping baskets available at the entrance of your store. Having a basket or trolley means that customers are far more likely to pick up spontaneous purchases. Depending on the size of your store, you can have wheeled or hand-carried baskets, or even trolleys. Baskets and trolleys are designed to get your customers shopping, so ensure they're maintained well and keep an eye out for any damage that might discourage use.

New Stock: Vegetable Rack Displays





Shelving4Shops
has just added another product to its ever-expanding stock range of shop shelving and shop fittings. Vegetable racks are a great way of displaying fruit and veg in an attractive way, without needing to use the more common method of tilting shelves. This great display technique frees up vital retail space, allowing you to maximise your existing shelving and display more products, helping to increase profits.

Vegetable stands can be placed inside or outside convenience stores, and provide an attractive display area at the front of any shop which may encourage customers to come in and browse your fresh produce. These compact stands are a great addition to our retail shelving and wire basket range. Other products in a similar style include:

  • Wire dump bins: Dump bins are a great addition to any retail store, filling up awkward spaces and providing a place to display end-of-line products and odd-shaped goods without taking up shelf space.
  • Wire stacking baskets: These baskets are designed to sit directly onto a shelf or be stacked against a wall, or at the end of a gondola run. Common uses for wire stacking baskets include displaying crisps, fruit and vegetables, hardware products and impulse buys.
  • Wire shelf risers: Risers are a great way to display confectionery like sweets and biscuits, or any goods that require tilting shelves.
Alongside these new products we have our existing stock of quality shelving which we now offer in cream, black and grey:

Dump Bins and Stacking Wire Baskets

Fitting out a retail store isn't just about the wall shelving - there are plenty of shop accessories like dump bins and baskets that can make your store more efficient and provide you with additional storage and display space. 



Dump bins are a handy and adaptable addition to your shop shelving that can fit in corners and alcoves that previously were wasting space. Placed at the end of aisles or by the shop counter, dump bins and baskets also encourage spontaneous impulse buying, and are ideal for displaying end of stock items or promotional and seasonal products, or items that are not easily stacked on a shelf.




Our standard dump bin comes in durable chrome and measures 800mm by 480mm with an adjustable base which can be placed at the height that suits your products. All our dump bins come flat packed for easy transport and can be taken apart and easily stored if you need extra space. At just £20, dump bins are a useful and effective way of creating an extra display within your store without sacrificing on space.


As well as dump bins, we stock a variety of stacking baskets and wire shelving units. Stacking baskets are perfect for fresh produce and making the most of difficult spaces within your store, while providing several tiers of shelving. Choose from 3 or 5 tiered wire basket shelving, in horizontal or vertical arrangements, or a free-standing 5 tier wire shelving unit for larger spaces. Costing from just £18, wire baskets are a very affordable option for valuable additional shelving space.




It is also important to consider how you are going to provide product information and display prices to customers in the various forms of display units. Often, dump bins or stacking baskets hold impulse purchase items so you want customers to quickly and easily see the price and product information to allow them to quickly pick something up on their way past.

For standard shelving like gondola bays and end bays EPOS shelf edge strips are a quick and effective way to display information. All of our bays are compatible with EPOS strips and can add a pop of colour to your shelving or be used in a similar colour scheme as the rest of your store creating a flow of colour throughout. If you are using dump bins or stacking baskets then EPOS strips will not be the best option for you, instead why not use other points of sale like individual product stickers, these can be really useful if customers pick up items and place them elsewhere in the store as each item has the price on it. Alternatively, pricing clips work perfectly with basket storage as they can easily be clipped onto the front or side of the basket and display all of the information a customer could need.
