Claim:
A shelving system for installation upon a wall, comprising: a hanger track mountable substantially horizontally upon a wall; at least two main panels hangable vertically in mutually parallel relation upon the hanger track and substantially perpendicular to the wall, each one of the at least two main panels having a formational plane of symmetry and being molded integrally to define on each one of the main panels: a panel left side, a panel right side, a panel front having a front edge, and a panel back; a web; a hook notch in the panel back, engageable with the hanger track whereby the main panel can hang by gravity upon the hanger track; at least one wardrobe rod hook defined as a concave notch in the front edge and extending down and into the web; at least one substantially planar shelf ledge on the panel left side and at least one substantially planar shelf ledge on the panel right side, said shelf ledges extending from the panel front to the panel back; wherein the panel right side and panel left side are substantially bilaterally symmetrical about the formational plane of symmetry; at least one wardrobe rod having two opposite ends, each end engageable with respective wardrobe rod hooks of two adjacent panels of the at least two main panels, wherein the at least one wardrobe rod further comprises: a hollow exterior segment; a hollow interior segment defining a slit along its length and slidable coaxially relative to the exterior segment; an end cap segment; and a clamping assembly comprising a clamp washer situated within the interior segment, a clamp bolt disposed through the clamp washer and through the slit in the interior segment, and a clamp nut screwably engaged with the clamp bolt; and at least one shelf disposable between the two adjacent panels, each end of each shelf resting directly, without a bracket, upon respective planar shelf ledges of the two adjacent panels; wherein the clamp assembly can be loosened to allow the interior segment to slide back and forth relative to the exterior segment, and wherein the clamp assembly can be tightened to hold and maintain the relative positions of the interior and exterior segments.
