Several plug-in applications have been listed. I felt it useful to provide a “baseline” use against which other plug-in solutions could be referenced. Here is one of the original plug-in solutions applied to bar merchandising. In fact if you zoomed in you would find rust and corrosion on this unit due to its age. It is not presented as a serious contender for plug-in rating, rather as a reference point and historical marker.
Modern bar merchandisers can offer plug-in display hooks, saddle mount hooks, pusher-hooks, various styles of label holder systems, bar mount trays, bar mount baskets and more. Bar attachment can be traditional threaded fasteners (as shown here), quick-mount no-tools-necessary attachments, and universal mounts that fit almost the entire range of hole patterns and gondola upright wall thicknesses.
