    Help locating 1/4" Shelf Bracket

    I have been asked to build a shelf as a document holder and I am using 1/4" Tempered hardboard and 1/4" adjustable pins like the one the customer has. The only issue is that he likes the shelf pins/brackets like the ones he has. This is where the problem is... I can't find them anywhere and he has no idea where he got the shelf system in the past. I have attached a photo for identification if any one knows where I can find such a thing.

    Thanks!!

    The pin is really 1/4"? That looks like a part which would come from the metric world, so the pin would be 5 mm.

    Google 'shelf pins for glass'. I did not see exactly what you show but, these clips made for glass shelving are certainly in the same family.

    Tell him those pins are discontinued and find similar pins that work. Keep a straight face.

    Hardware is often proprietary so you may not be able to find the exact same type.
