1. A shelving system comprising:

  • an elongated mounting member selectively securable to an associated shelf, said mounting member comprising an approximately horizontally oriented wall and an approximately vertically oriented wall;

    a raised area located on said approximately horizontally oriented wall, said raised area including a front face which is oriented at an acute angle relative to a horizontal plane such that it includes a projecting portion, wherein a top edge of said front face extends further toward said approximately vertically oriented wall than does a bottom edge thereof;

    a track received on said mounting member, wherein said track extends approximately perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the associated shelf;

    a flange protruding from and extending transversely along a bottom face of said track, wherein said flange frictionally engages said front face to retard a sideward sliding motion of said track in relation to said mounting member;

    a divider wall received on said mounting member, wherein said divider wall extends aproximately perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the associated shelf;

    a first set of teeth extending at least partially from a rear face of said mounting member raised area; and

    ,a second set of teeth extending from said divider wall adjacent a slot located on a bottom face of said divider wall, said slot being oriented transversely to a longitudinal axis of said divider wall, said second set of teeth engaging said first set of teeth to retard a sideward sliding motion of said divider wall in relation to said mounting member.
