How it works

How industrial shelving works

WalkwayStairsMulti-tier shelving: adjustable shelves at every level
  1. Frames are linked by shelf supports that set the depth of each bay.
  2. Shelves hang at any height, on frames punched every 25 mm.
  3. Panels, mesh, bins and dividers turn each bay into organised locations.
  4. Need more space? Build a second or third tier with walkways and stairs.

Is it right for you?

A good fit, and when to look elsewhere

A good fit for

  • Boxes, cartons, spares and small parts
  • Stores, parts departments and e-commerce picking
  • Tyres, wheels and awkward items (with special fittings)
  • Hazardous liquids (with safe-storage builds)

Consider something else if

Shelving adapts to almost anything with the right accessories: bins, dividers, mesh and panels.

Racking and trucks, sized together

The trucks that work it

Racking and trucks decide each other: aisle width, top beam height and capacity at height all have to match. We supply both, so we check them together.

Tell us what you store, and we will tell you what fits

Pallet or product sizes and weights, how many locations, how fast stock moves, the building's clear height and the trucks you run. We come back with the racking, and the trucks to match.

Industrial Shelving questions

Steel shelves are rated at 150, 250 or 350 kg, and timber boards at 250 or 350 kg. A complete shelving unit can carry up to 3,500 kg, depending on how it is built.

Yes. Multi-tier shelving adds walkways, handrails and stairs to build storage levels up to around 8 metres high.

A run that is more than five times taller than it is deep must be fixed to a wall or the floor so it cannot tip.
