Important consideration in choosing warehouse shelving units

Important Considerations

· What type of shelving material should I use - Steel, wire, plastic, wood, etc?

· Do I need open or closed shelf styles?

· What strength of material do I need - Heavy duty or light duty?

· What shelving fits in the space available? What are my height and width requirements?

· What type of layout design do I need?

· What type of assembly do I need - Tools or tool-less assembly?

One of your first decisions involves deciding on what strength and material options would work best for your space. We have many different materials available for shelving systems - steel shelving, wire shelving, boltless rivet shelving, slotted angle shelving, long span shelving, galvanized steel shelving and more. Depending on the size of the unit desired and the strength needed to hold the stored items, we'll work with you to choose the safest and most economical option for your storage needs.

Another important consideration in choosing warehouse shelving units is the difficulty in assembly. Some shelving requires nuts, bolts and tools to assemble, while other styles are boltless and connect together easily without the need for tools. Other options to consider are the size and dimensions of the space available for the shelving, the weight of the stored items and if you need a single freestanding unit or would prefer the option of adding on in the future.
