description An adjustable shelf system for food equipment includes at least one series of vertically spaced support surfaces mounted in the food equipment for providing support to a back of a shelf, and at least two front brackets, each having a base and a support member extending from the base. The support member has an outer edge and a series of vertically spaced notches extending from the outer edge toward the base. The notches have a first elevation and a second elevation lower than the first elevation. The first elevation is located between the edge and the second elevation, and the second elevation is located between the first elevation and the base. The front brackets are mounted vertically in the food equipment such that the second elevation of the notches in the front bracket is at the same elevation as corresponding back support surfaces. The front brackets are also mounted such that the notches extend in a direction generally parallel with a plane that intersects the front brackets. At least one shelf is configured to be supported by the back support surfaces and the front brackets, with a front, back, two sides, a main shelf surface and at least two extensions extending outwardly from the sides. The extensions have a thickness such that they can pass laterally through the front bracket notches. The extensions are placed on the shelf, and the front brackets and back support surfaces are placed in the food equipment, and the extensions and notches are configured such that in a first longitudinal shelf position, the back of the shelf is supported by one of the at least one series of back support surfaces and the extensions extend into corresponding notches in the front brackets and rest on the second elevation of the notches. The front of the shelf can be lifted to where the extensions clear the first elevation, allowing the shelf to be moved laterally to a second longitudinal shelf position in which the back of the shelf is no longer supported by the back support surfaces and the extensions are clear of the notches in the front brackets, thereby allowing the shelf to be moved vertically to a different height.
