Abstract

Display systems for displaying consumer products are provided. The display systems may include a support member having a plurality of apertures, a first insert insertable into a first one of the plurality of apertures to couple the first insert to the support member, a second insert insertable into a second one of the plurality of apertures to couple the second insert to the support member, a hang member supportable by the first and second inserts, and a fixture supportable by the hang member. Other display systems may include two hang members of different lengths and a fixture supportable by a first of the hang members or a second of the hang members. Still other display systems may include an insert supportable by a support member and a fixture supportable by the insert. Other display systems may include a hang member or a fixture supportable by an insert.

       6 . The display system of  claim 1 , wherein the fixture is a first fixture, the display system further comprising a second fixture supportable by the hang member, the hang member being capable of simultaneously or interchangeably supporting the first fixture and the second fixture.  
   
   
       7 . The display system of  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of apertures includes a third aperture, and wherein the hang member substantially covers the third aperture when the hang member is supportable by the first and second inserts.  
   
   
       8 . The display system of  claim 7 , wherein the third aperture is disposed between the first and second apertures.  
   
   
       9 . The display system of  claim 1 , wherein the fixture is removably supportable by either the hang member or the first insert.  
   
   
       10 . A display system comprising: 
 a support member having a plurality of apertures including a first aperture, a second aperture, and a third aperture, a first distance defined between the first aperture and the second aperture, and a second distance defined between the first aperture and the third aperture, the second distance different than the first distance;    a first insert insertable into the first aperture to couple the first insert to the support member;    a second insert insertable into the second aperture to couple the second insert to the support member;    a third insert insertable into the third aperture to couple the third insert to the support member;    a first hang member having a first length and being supportable by the first and second inserts;    a second hang member having a second length different than the first length, the second hang member being supportable by the first and third inserts; and    a fixture adapted to be removably supportable by the first hang member or the second hang member.    
   
   
       11 . The display system of  claim 10 , wherein the first hang member is supportable by the first insert near a first end of the first hang member and is supportable by the second insert near a second end of the first hang member, and wherein the second hang member is supportable by the first insert near a first end of the second hang member and is supportable by the third insert near a second end of the second hang member.  
   
   
       12 . The display system of  claim 10 , wherein the first hang member and the second hang member are interchangeably supportable by the first insert.  
   
   
       13 . The display system of  claim 10 , wherein the first, second, and third apertures are linearly oriented.  
   
   
       14 . The display system of  claim 10 , wherein the second distance is greater than the first distance and the second length is greater than the first length.  
   
   
       15 . The display system of  claim 14 , wherein the first, second, and third apertures are linearly oriented and the second aperture is disposed between the first and third apertures, and wherein the second aperture is substantially covered by the second hang member when the second hang member is supported by the first and third inserts.  
   
   
       16 . A display system comprising: 
 a support member having an aperture;    an insert supportable by the support member, the insert including a body at least partially insertable into the aperture, a spacing member coupled to the body, and a cover coupled to the spacing member such that the cover is spaced from the body to provide an insert receptacle; and    a fixture supportable by the insert and including an inverted, U-shaped connector including a first portion, a second portion, and a fixture receptacle defined between the first portion and the second portion;    wherein, when the fixture is supported by the insert, the first portion of the fixture is at least partially positioned in the insert receptacle and the cover is at least partially positioned in the fixture receptacle.    
   
   
       17 .
