An adjustable, shelf hanging clip for hanging shelves on storage racks is constructed from at least two rectangular sections of material joined at an angle which can be about 90.degree.. At least one of these rectangular sections has a pair of hook-shaped support and latching tabs extending from its exterior surface, with the ends of the tabs extending toward one another. The hook shaped tabs are adapted to be received into a pair of adjacent, vertically spaced holes in the columns of the storage racks. The hook of the upper tab fits over the bottom of the upper hole so that the top inside surface of the hook is the bearing surface and the outside surface of the lower tab is the bearing surface on the bottom of the lower hole. The other rectangular section of the clip has a notch at each of its ends. The bottom surface of each notch is a separate, preselected longitudinal distance from the inside bearing surface of the nearest tab. Thus, the clip can be turned around and installed in the same vertically spaced holes on storage rack columns to adjust the height of the storage rack. The clip can have additional adjustment heights by fabricating an additional pair of similarly arranged hook tabs on each of one or more additional rectangular sections of the clip and cutting notches in the ends of adjacent rectangular sections which are additional, different longitudinal distances from the inside bearing surfaces of these tabs.
