1. A shelving system comprising: at least one track including a rearward portion and a forward portion, the forward portion including a downwardly-extending retaining lip with an inwardly protruding portion, a generally upwardly-facing horizontal support surface, and an opening cooperatively defined by the retaining lip and the support surface along at least a portion of a length of the track; andat least one standard including an upper standard and a lower standard, each of the upper and lower standards having an end portion slidably receivable within the opening of the track, such that the position of the at least one standard relative to the track is slidably adjustable along the track, the end portion of each of the upper and lower standards including: an upper portion configured to contact the track's retaining lip;an opening that extends through the end portion for receiving the inwardly protruding portion of the track's retaining lip therethrough; anda generally downwardly-facing horizontal support surface that contacts the generally upwardly-facing horizontal support surface of the track when the end portion is supported by the track with the end portion slidably received within the track's opening;wherein the upper standard has a lower end portion opposite the end portion slidably receivable within the opening of the track, the lower end portion of the upper standard including a generally hook-shaped engagement member engagable with the opening through the end portion of the lower standard. 2. The shelving system of claim 1, wherein the end portion of each of the upper and lower standards comprises a contoured end portion having a shape complementary to a shape of the opening of the at least one track. 3. The shelving system of claim 1, wherein each of the upper and lower standards includes a rearward portion defining a contoured opening having a shape complementary to a shape of a lower portion of the track, such that the track's lower portion is engageably received within the standard's contoured opening when supported by the track with the respective end portion slidably received within the track's opening. 4. The shelving system of claim 1, wherein the at least one standard includes means for interlocking the end portion of the lower standard to the lower end portion of the upper standard, wherein said means for interlocking comprises the generally hook-shaped engagement member and the opening through the end portion of the lower standard. 5. The shelving system of claim 4, wherein the end portion of the lower standard is interlocked with the lower end portion of the upper standard by said means for interlocking without mechanical fasteners or clips. 6. The shelving system of claim 1, wherein the end portion of the lower standard is interlocked with the lower end portion of the upper standard without mechanical fasteners or clips. 7. The shelving system of claim 1, wherein: the at least one track comprises at least two tracks, each track including a rearward portion and a forward portion, the rearward portion of each track defining a recess; andthe shelving system further comprises an elongate member slidably receivable within the recesses of the tracks such that each track is slidable along the elongate member, whereby the slidable engagement of the elongate member within the recesses of the tracks aligns the tracks and allows slidable adjustment of the relative positioning of the tracks to each other. 8. The shelving system of claim 7, wherein the at least one standard includes at least two standards each supportable by a corresponding one of the tracks, and wherein each standard is slidable along the corresponding one of the tracks, thereby allowing slidable adjustment of the relative positioning of the standards to each other. 9. The shelving system of claim 7, wherein the elongate member comprises a generally cylindrical rod, and wherein the recesses defined by the tracks include corresponding generally cylindrical shapes for slidably receiving therein the generally cylindrical rod. 10. The shelving system of claim 1, further comprising an assembly for supporting a hang rod from a shelving bracket having a lower portion with openings, the assembly comprising: a hang rod mounting bracket including a first end portion with tabs receivable within the openings of the shelving bracket to mount the hang rod mounting bracket to the shelving bracket, a second end portion generally opposite the first end portion, and a curved portion extending generally between the first and second end portions such that the hang rod mounting bracket has a generally J-shaped profile configured to allow a clothes hanger to slide along the hang rod freely past the hang rod mounting bracket without interference therefrom; anda saddle including an upper saddle portion and a lower portion with an opening for receiving the second end portion of the hang rod mounting bracket to thereby mount the saddle to the hang rod mounting bracket, the upper saddle portion configured for receiving at least a portion of the hang rod therein. 11. The shelving system of claim 10, further comprising a hang rod, and a shelving bracket having a lower portion with openings configured to receive the tabs of the hang rod mounting bracket. 12. The shelving system of claim 10, wherein: the saddle's opening comprises a generally rectangular slot; and/orthe upper saddle portion is configured with a generally U-shaped profile for receiving only a lower portion of the hang rod therein; and/orthe curved portion has a generally concave curvature relative to the second end portion of the hang rod mounting bracket such that the curved portion opens in a direction facing generally upwards and towards the second end portion; and/orthe hang rod mounting bracket includes a notch defined generally between each tab and the first end portion and is configured for receiving a corresponding portion of the shelving bracket when the tabs are received within the openings of the shelving bracket. 13. The shelving system of claim 1, further comprising: at least one shelving bracket having openings;at least one locking member coupled to the shelving bracket for pivotal movement between at least an unlocked position and a locked position in which the locking member releasably locks in place a portion of a shelf at least partially supported by the shelving bracket, the locking member comprising: protruding portions on generally opposite sides of the locking member, the protruding portions receivable within corresponding openings of the shelving bracket to thereby pivotably couple the locking member to the shelving bracket;a locking finger that defines an opening for receiving the portion of the shelf therein when the locking member is in the locked position; anda lever for causing pivotal movement of the locking member between the unlocked and locked positions. 14. The shelving system of claim 13, wherein: the shelf includes at least one longitudinal member; andthe opening defined by the locking finger is configured for receiving at least a portion of the longitudinal member. 15. The shelving system of claim 13, wherein: the shelf comprises at least one longitudinal member;the shelving bracket includes at least one generally u-shaped recess along an upper portion thereof; andat least a portion of the longitudinal member is received within the shelving bracket's u-shaped recess, thereby restraining generally horizontal movement of the shelf relative to the shelving bracket. 16. The shelving system of claim 1, wherein: the rearward portion of the track includes a downwardly extending lip and a recessed slot extending at least partially along a length of the rearward portion of the track; andat least one mounting screw having a slotted head with an axial groove extending circumferentially along the slotted head, the slotted head slidably receivable within the track's recessed slot and the track's downwardly extending lip is receivable within the axial groove, whereby the position of the mounting screw relative to the track is slidably adjustable along the track. 17. The shelving system of claim 16, further comprising a mounting channel member having a base and two generally opposite sidewalls extending from the base such that the mounting channel member has a generally U-shaped profile, and wherein: the base includes an opening therein for receiving at least a portion of the mounting screw therein; andthe sidewalls are spaced apart for receiving a portion of the track therebetween when the track is mounted to a surface with the mounting screw. 18. The shelving system of claim 16, wherein the mounting screw further comprises an end portion with a self-drilling thread generally opposite the slotted head. 19. The shelving system of claim 16, wherein the upper standard is at least partially supportable from the track when the track is mounted to a surface with the mounting screw.
