I have Kenmore 16.7cu ft. upright freezerless fridge that I keep at 55C for beer cellaring (all commercial brews). Unfortunately the included shelving causes a lot of wasted space since it's not really adjustable. The wasted space is enough for another full shelf tall enough for bombers. Which brings me to...custom DIY shelving.
I want to minimize the effort to do this, the volume of the fridge the shelving takes up, and the destructiveness to the fridge. The idea I've come up with is very simple.

3M VHB tape...http://multimedia.3m.com/mws/mediaw...yEVtQEVs6EVs6EVs6E666666--&fn=70070940609.pdf
I would adhere two posts to the back wall of the fridge using the tape and then use the matching shelf supports to add shelves. This design meets all my goals and is very cheap as well. But I have a concern.
Is the back wall of the fridge going to be able to support the weight? I have no doubt the VHB will hold the posts to the wall, but since I don't know how the fridge is constructed, I'm unsure how it will react.
I'm hoping for a lot of responses telling me it will work fine, but we'll see.
Cheers!
