Great shelving but the pins are impossible to use without opening them up first.
I used a hammer and old screwdriver to open up the pins. If you are careful to line up the shelves, you won't need to use pins on most of the joints. When I needed to use them, I only put a pin on the center rail.
I added a vertical 1X4 on each end for a finished look and to prevent runaways. I drilled holes in the 1X4 aligned with the end pins and press fit it. I also used a Kreig Jig to make pocket holes to mount the 1X4 to the wall with wall anchors.
