- for fast fastening, the “corner" fastening is considered optimal, and it is also highly reliable and can withstand significant loads, so you don’t have to worry that shelves or hangers will fall under the weight of things;
- to obtain attractive and neat fixtures, FIX-type products are selected, and it will not be difficult to dismantle the shelves if necessary;
