Before the fact, a middle partition would have been a better design.
That might work. I will have 2 standards on each side and on the back with clips and a beefy front edge along the front. The standards are only $3 and clips are 12 for about $2. I am going to rebuild these shelves this week and will share once it is done.

Dan, sorry about the giant 'left turn' in your thread.
No worries! This place is great for getting the finest solutions to problems. In this case, I just needed the simplest solution.
