A bit of a “whatsit?” A full-depth Shelf Overlay Includes C-Channel front. But what is it’s purpose? To protect the shelf surface? To provide Tag Channel for channel-less flat face shelves? (These shelves, however, already featured built-in aluminum C-channel.) A bit of a poser. Can anyone post a comment to explain the benefit?

Meanwhile, if you need a way to label a shelf … any type shelf … you might find a site with over 450 Label Strip Profiles a good starting point. If still bored after that, SELECT “Label Holders / Sign Holders” from the Fixtures Categories Menu here on Fixtures Close Up.
