Bookcases & Shelving — Expert Answer
What shelf pin spacing do commercial bookcases use?
Commercial bookcases use 1/4" or 5mm pin-hole spacing in 1" or 2" increments along the interior side panels. The 1" increment provides the finest adjustment. Shelf pins are typically 1/4" diameter steel pegs — specify the correct diameter when ordering replacement pins.
