Default Wall displays for cards

The set display thread made me realize this might be a good place to ask this question that has been plaguing me for some time. My office isn't super large, and I use it for my full time job as well as my ebay operation. As such I don't have the room for a real standing display case, but want to be able to display some cards. (I do have some displayed on top and in one drawer of a dresser that I use to store some items I have for sale on ebay.) All of this means that my walls are really the only place I have to display cards.

I've been looking for a while for a hanging case to display cards. The problem I'm finding with all of these is that they are designed to hold standard slabbed cards. While most cards I want to display are slabbed, I have some that are raw, and others are slabbed but tall boy sized (think 1955 Topps Double Header). I've never successfully found a case that would allow me to also display tall boy sized slabs next to my standard slabs (presumably with either tall shelves or removable/movable shelf options) -- if you know of one please let me know!

Short of that I've looked at floating shelf type options but am always concerned that a door slam or something would shake the shelf and cause the card to fall.

I also just discovered these wall mounts by CollectorMount that are sized for card slabs, and they also have DVD and record album ones too, which I assume would fit larger slabs. But, the idea of mounting a bunch of individual displays instead of one large display seems annoying.

Open to any and all suggestions that you've had success with, short of the inevitable "build a case yourself" suggestion -- I'm not handy.

Default Displays

I have a many different displays depending on the room.

Most were purchased but some were custom made.

Sorry! Some of the pictures came out sideways!

Mine's not quite as elaborate as some of yours, but it works pretty nicely...
