Can I invert the bottom shelf so that the the (presumed) lip can help prevent items from slipping off?

Yes. This would be no problem. The only minor details being that one would see the set screws and that the Trinity emblem would be upside down.

Yes the bottom shelf can be reversed and slipped onto the legs. It can be adjusted to the height you need. It is tightened with set screws.

It probably would work as long as the mounting bolts were securely tightened.

yes you can. this will put the bottom shelf a few inches closer to the floor but still above it. i agree about putting caps on to protect floor.

I've used it as such-- the main problem (other than the messed up top on one leg...), is that small items can fall through/tip over because of the spaces in the shelves.

No - the lower shelf is needed to keep the legs in line - you could, however, eliminate the middle shelf.

Not sure if that will work.The top shelf has a hinged door attached to it. The next lower shelf is just set in so you probably could leave that one out. As I mentioned in a previous review, my husband had to re-drill the holes for the screws to make them go in straight and keep the sides aligned. Hope that helps

Sure could; The four corner verticals are really two verticals stacked on one another with a plastic connector. You would have to position the shelfs strategically to get stability in each. Nice idea.

The shelves help stabilize the rack. I wouldn't risk ii, especially if you are placing heavy items on the top shelf.

Yes, the bottom shelves can be adjusted to allow that. However, this is a shallow unit so the LPs will stick out a little.

They can only be placed down, because the shape of the holes in the corners that slide down the pole, are sort of cone shaped to tighten on the place holders you have already put where you want the shelves. But there is about 1/4 of an inch or so of the rail that sticks up a little on top, so if you put a container on the shelf it is not going to slip off, it would hit this little lip first to stop it.

I don't own this piece yet but I'm looking to use it for the same purpose. If you zoom in on the photo, there appears to be screws in the sides to hold up the shelves if you lay this length ways so I would assume so.

The shelves are not adjustable, but I assume you could leave one or both out if you wanted.

maybe...it looks like the shelf could be left off...you would have screw holes in the vertical side pieces that you would want to plug somehow. it doesn't seem that the shelf is structural, just my best guess.

Yes, but the shelf will not fit completely down over the retaining clip afterwards.

Looks like the back shelf can go down to be even with the front shelf (and since the front shelf tilts up, that would make the back able to be lower than the top of the tilted front).

each shelf snaps in with a "c" shaped connector to the frame. You could remove the middle shelf and put it upside down on the lower shelf (the connector won't fit on top of another shelf, but if you flip it over, it should be OK). We'd loved these shoe racks...great product.

Yes. Get someone's help to turn it upside down (onto a blanket so you dont scratch it) Then gently tap the top off. You can also release the shelf in the same way. We recently added a second shelf, bought separately. Be sure to chose one with correct pipe/sleeve diameter. This one is 1.5" NOT 1". Also measure shelf size correctly, there are so many out there.

probably hacksaw off at the bottom. should work. i have made these shelves taller by putting 7/8 inch dowels in the top of the uprights. judy
