Knape & Vogt 256P-ZC Shelf Support, Pack of 12 , Zinc

Somehow we lost our shelf supports in a nook of our work safe. These work great. Came fast.

Item pictured is stamped Knape-Vogt, 256, Grand Rapids matching the vintage originals in the cabinet. What was shipped is marked 256 KV and arrived with rust spots already breaking through the plating. Cheap substitution or the original manufacturer sold out, but it will probably function at least, while leaving rust stains on my wood eventually.

Fit shelf brackets perfectly. Only needed one so now I have 11 extras.

Better than the ones that came in my safe. At first I thought they didnt fit. I had to use pliers to squeeze it every time you place one in the track. Almost like its too open. If that makes sense. But it keeps it tight in the track.

They fit and they work, supporting shelves in a safe. I bought them for a friend who didnt know where to get additional shelf clips (not an internet user). She said they fit perfectly and are heavy-duty, supporting the shelves well.

These were sturdy. I had to close the opening more to get them into the shelf support. No problems

These are *the* clips to buy. The Chinese made version is terrible. The main difference? The K&V has flex in the body . You set the top tab in the slot, press a bit to compress the clip, insert the bottom tab into the slot and release. The tension snaps it in ad its secure. The cheaper versions need to be bent with pliers and never fit just right.

Great durability and quality. Fit/works perfect

When I was a cabinetmaker in the 80s K-V hardware was the best there was. I bought a gun safe recently, and it was supplied with some malformed Chinese shelf clips that actually fell out and dropped a shelf within 12 hours of being installed. So I went back to what I know and ordered a bag of the K-V clips. Well, even K-V isnt what it used to be. Theyre made of thinner material, and nowhere near the quality that Id come to know. But that being said, they dont fall out, and they do the job.

The product is exactly what I needed to get my new shelves in my cabinets to work. They are actually a little tough to compress to put them in the slots, so I do recommend using a pliers or some other tool to make that happen. Bu, for the price, they are great. Speaking of price...they were cheaper on Amazon than at my local Home Depot! Score!
