Be aware this is for ONE bracket that can be purchased for $4 direct from Rubbermaid or $5-6 at the local hardware store. For $10 there should be TWO. I think this is a mistake in pricing.

Don't be fooled by the picture, these are not WHITE, they are the satin nickel (grey) finish. For some reason I cannot find the 16 inch ones in white, I assumed by the picture that they were white, but when I got them they were not. When I more closely read the details I then saw it was satin nickel. Which is fine but not with white shelving in a white room. My fault for not reading details.

I bought this shelving system in pieces to use in my cargo trailer. I wanted a system I could customize and that would be lightweight and sturdy at the same time. This has been in my trailer now for over a year and has survived bumpy NY roads and long cross country hauls. It handles the loads I put on the shelves even when I don't do it so gingerly. They even survive the shelving loads, strapped down and bouncing! These are really sturdy! I would recommend using at least one screw to secure the bottoms of the vertical hangers to keep them from shifting if you are using these in a application such as mine. I know these are not designed for my use but you wouldn't know it from the way they handle! I get compliments from other people with cargo haulers looking for something similar. Great product!

I made the mistake of thinking they came in pairs. I ordered what I thought was two sets for two shelves, but what I got was two brackets. So, I was left with one shelf up, the other on the floor with no brackets.

No biggie, right? Just go get two more Rubbermaid brackets? Sure, except the only place I can find this particular kind (5E20) is on Amazon! And I live in the DC/VA metro area - there are plenty of places to go to. Aarrrgh! So, I have to order, and wait. In the meantime, my shelf is on the floor along with a bunch of stuff that would go on the shelf.

Besides this minor mishap - the shelf system itself is awesome. I like the look, the quality is good, and they are strong, sturdy and durable enough to hold my books and other miscellaneous items. They will last a long time.

I love he rubbermaid fasttrack system; very easy to install and makes organization very easy.

The only place that I could find the bracket with clips was on Amazon!!

This was easy to install and we had shelves in seconds

It's been too easy to mix up these Fast Track items with regular closet organizer configurations - additional parts. This is just a note of caution!
