Shelving Unit Construction

Shelving units are essentially designed to be self-supporting structures. The shelving units are prefabricated structures composed of special rolled steel section, support beams, and shelves; they are reinforced with diagonal bracing. The basic shelving design is one upright frame with shelving bays. The shelving unit frame is made from four uprights of the appropriate height that are interconnected by diagonal on depth from front to back. The shelving frame must always retain two shelves, i.e., two storage levels to ensure the stability of the overall construction. It is also possible to equip the shelving unit with any of the accessories provided.

Standard Dimensions and Load capacity

Load capacity (kg)
Depth rack (mm)	300	400	500	600	800

Width rack (mm)
600	250	230	220	190	120
800	220	200	190	160	100
1000	180	160	150	130	90

Reinforcing individual shelves using available stiffeners can increase their load capacity. We will gladly explain the capacities of reinforced shelves upon request.

Accessories
Shelving Support Beams
These are made from cold-formed steel sheeting. They are equipped with brackets on both ends that fit into the perforated frame holes. The section size and the support beam shape differ according to the required load capacity and length. The support beam shape allows the bay to be supplemented with shelves of particle board or sheet metal panels.
Flow Pallet Racking
This system is used to store individual items for crates, boxes, and containers of various sizes. It is possible to divide the roller tier into individual lanes with partition strips; it is also possible to adjust both the roller tracks as well as the partition strips. The rollers are made from highly resistant plastic and are fitted with a metal shaft.
Partitions and Dividers
These are primarily used for separating individual types of materials or goods and for creating individually organized sections on longer shelving units.
Surface Finish
The standard finish is either galvanization or a paint powder coat. The basic colors are RAL 5010 blue and RAL 7035 gray. It is also possible to supply the shelving in other RAL colors.
Frames for Discs and Tires
These are used to store discs or pneumatic tires. They are manufactured from welded hollow structural section. They are vertically adjustable and are attached to the shelving frame using specially shaped hooks.
Mesh and Screens
These are attached to the shelving frame.
It is possible to supply a whole range of accessories according to how the shelving will actually be used:
- Shelves from grating in combination with spill trays for storing chemicals or mineral oils
- Partitions for separating individual shelves
- Special support beams for storing clothing on hangers
- Storage shelving for small-scale material
- Pole brackets for hanging ladders
- Side and back wall panels.
