Hooks designed for 3″ and 4″ Open Wire Grid are often designed with Backplate bottom anchors to reduce the chance a hook is jostled off the display. Many manufacturers have their own preferred design. A full service manufacturer can make any and all. But it is rarely the manufacturer who can tell you which is best for you. All the more reason to ask for samples and test, even informally, in your environment. I found this bottom anchor interesting, as well as the strict right-angle inside of the top lugs. Remember that well-equipped manufacturers can also provide Safety Ball-End Tips to the frontwire, reducing retail risk. CLICK the gallery for various views and angles.
