Our church is going to buy a 5x8 enclosed utlity trailer. The interior will have plywood flooring and walls. We want narrow enclosed shelves along one side for tools/etc, yet these shelves must be removeable. We're not opposed to a shelving "unit" that can be installed and removed, but really we want something a little simpler and easier. Any ideas?

What about this type brackets and support arms?

Make the shelves wide enough that the tips of the arms could sit in a hole in the underside of the shelves.Don, aka Pappy,

This is what I use for the walls in my shop. It mounts easy, has an incredible array of brackets to do different things, and brackets/shelves just clip on, no tapping down. Items can be hung and removed in a second. It's called slatwall, here is a site for a looksee:

You would do well to think of a way for your shelving unit to bear on the floor of the trailer. Most enclosed trailers do not have wall framing that will support much weight, so spread it out if you can....eight, nine, TEN! Yep! Still got all my fingers!Comment

Thanks for the replies y'all. I think I'll have to pursue something like just4funsies suggested, a unit that bears its weight on the floor. I'd seen the brackets/similar that y'all pointed me to, but they won't work by themselves. All the stuff on them would slide or vibrate off while traveling. I think a narrow cabinet unit on rollers that can be bolted securely to the wall and floor will be best. It will need narrow access panels so that we can open them up without unpacking the whole thing.Comment
