Standard wire shelving features four steel poles, 7" to 8 feet in height, with shelves that are usually between 18 to 30 inches deep and two to six feet wide. The shelves have four holes on the corners where the poles insert and little plastic clips keep them connected. The shelves are held on by circular grooves on the poles which are usually spaced one inch apart throughout its length, making it extremely easy for the individual shelves to be moved to any height when the unit is fully assembled without taking apart the unit or moving the other shelves. No tools are required to assemble or disassemble these shelves, although a rubber mallet is useful.
Wire shelving is used in a broad range of commercial and home applications. It is often used in restaurant, food service and retail store applications due to its ability to stay clean and resist rust and mold. It is also used by retailers, in industrial applications and in home kitchens as well. Wire shelving is excellent in areas where fire prevention is stressed because its open design allows sprinkler systems to function where solid shelving might block water flow.
The all welded shelf construction is supported with architectural wire trusses to provide between 600 lb. And 800 lb. Capacity per shelf.
Wire shelving is available in four options: galvanized wire shelves, chrome-plated, stainless steel and plastic coated wire shelving. Shelves can be loaded/unloaded easily from all sides. This open construction allows use of maximum storage space of cube. |
