Default Shelves in Kitchen Cabinets

I'm making some kithcen cabinets. I've posted here before and gotten some great info so... In the upper cabinets I'm trying to decide how to add shelves. I know I want them to be adjustable but that's as far as I've gotten.

I can drill a series of holes and use dowels or real shelf hardware

or I can mount standards standards in grooves cut in the cabinet side

or add standards and leave them standing proud

or??????

so if you prefer one method or the other or have yet another option - I'm interested in your opinion. (My cabinets sides are 3/4" cabinet grade plywood that I'm making from scratch. The shelfs will be melamine.)

Thanks in advance!!!

Hi Berry

Here's just one more way.
It's bar that has little slots that you snap a clip into it.
The bar is about 1/2" wide and about 3/16" thick and it's screwed into the inside cabinet.
The clip is a plated metal and it just snaps into the bar, it's quick and easy to install, it comes in 2ft,4ft,6ft,8ft. and you just cut it to what you need it to be and just screw it into the cabinet

One of the neat things about it you can put it in place after the cabinets are in place and if you want to add a group of spice shelves ( 1/4 wide )size in the back of one of the cabinets you can do it quick and easy plus you can move the shelves just about anywhere after the cabinet are up and hanging.
