Shelving, the system by which we keep things organised and easily accessible, is necessary for homes and businesses who want to increase production. It is also essential for business with space constraints. As a business grows, the demand for storage increases and the available space decreases. Soon you put things wherever you can find an available place and piles of items begin to form. These piles will take over your life or your business if you don’t take control. The right shelving system will meet the varying needs of a home or business. It takes up less floor space, provides more storage, and it should be easy to work with.
Longspan Shelving
Longspan shelving systems with timber shelves are adjusted easily to accommodate for storage of different heights, weights, and configurations. They are used for a variety of purposes and offers different shelving options to meet the user’s needs.
Timber shelves are most commonly used because they are suitable for a multitude of purposes. Timber shelving is used in garages, schools, warehouses, and for archive storage. Installation is generally quick and easy and does not require training or special equipment to assemble. It is also affordable and durable.
Steel Shelving is appropriate for items that are bulky or heavy. The shelf height is adjustable to accommodate different sized goods and installation is easy. It is excellent for long-term storage and is versatile enough to meet needs ranging from small parts up to items weighing 500kg.
Mesh Shelving is the most versatile solution to your shelving needs. The set-up is simple and is mainly just beams and shelves. Mesh shelving provides a few advantages over other shelving in regards to safety and fire regulations, and since the shelving is mesh, it provides better air circulation, better visibility and less accumulation of dust.
Second Hand Shelving
Installing a second hand shelving system is an excellent alternative to investing in a new one, especially if you’re in the early stages of building your business. It costs much less than new shelving units and is equally effective. Used shelving is pre-assembled and is available in various sizes and can generally be found in the exact measurements you need for your area. Most respectable retailers have a quality control system to ensure that the used or refurbished shelving units are in good condition and safe.
Heavy Duty Shelving
Heavy duty shelving will be found mainly in the storage areas of companies with a lot of overstock and/or a large inventory and warehouses. It has a flexible set-up and the shelves can be adjusted in increments. Assembly is easy with no extra hardware required. Heavy duty shelving also comes in a few variations all of which are made to withstand the ultra-heavy bulky goods you want to shelf. The shelving is made with a design that is specifically designed to store heavy loads.
Vertical space is largely wasted space. Shelving units maximise this space which gives you back crucial square footage, and makes your inventory easier to find.
