Warehouse Light Duty Racking

Shelving can go very high, but you will need to assess how the shelving is intended to be accessed. If the shelving is all being accessed from the ground, the top shelf should not be more than 2 merest high. There is the option to access the shelving by steps or scissor lifts, in which case it could be built many merest high, with portal ties between shelves securing them. However, in this case it may be more efficient to have a number of floors, turning them into mufti tier storage. 

Long span Racking offers a highly efficient storage solution with a high load bearing capacity to accommodate changes in product shape and size, packaging and relocation. 

The width of your shelving depends on the load as well as on the height of your system. If can often be more cost effective to use shorter beams and more posts, unless there is a need to store something very long.

Shelving can be engineered to take almost any weight, as budget will allow. Shelving required to take extremely heavy loads will be more expensive to build, and may also require reinforcements of the floor below the shelves. The operators will also need to take manual handling issues into account, and if Material Handling Equipment will be required, other safety considerations will need to be taken into account.
