Storage rack with easily installable retainer loops

A storage rack for small articles including an elongated carrier having a bottom wall, side and end walls and an open top. An elongated support bar holder, having a base and upstanding end walls, is dimensioned to be fitted in and be received in the elongated carrier. An elongated support bar extends between the end walls of the support bar holder and is spaced from the base of the support bar holder. The elongated support bar has a transverse cross-section which is non-circular in shape. A number of retainer loops are mounted side by side on the elongated support bar. Each retainer loop is formed of a strip of a tough, resilient, abrasion-resistant resin and has a bight portion and two legs. A passage is formed in each leg near its distal end for mounting the retainer loops on the elongated support bar. Each passage has a shape similar to but slightly larger than the non-circular transverse cross-section of the elongated support bar. One of the end walls of the support bar holder is hingedly connected to the base for movement towards and away from the support bar. A tenon and mortise joint are formed to connect the hingedly connected end wall to the elongated support bar.
