The overhead devices can be used on both the mobile and stationary shelving units and floor anchored to meet seismic regulations in areas that may get earthquakes.

Your design options do not end there; you can choose sign holders and end panel materials and finishes that will match any décor or design plan. The end panels are removable and replaceable, so when your designs change, you do not have to replace your entire units.
