WIDE SPAN SHELVING-BULK STORAGE RACK, NEW AND USED, COLUMBUS, OHIO
Wide Span Shelving, Letโs not confuse Wide Span Shelving (occasionally called Bulk Storage Racks) with Rivet Shelving as they are two uniquely different storage type systems. Wide Span is a cost-effective, boltless storage system generally used for hand stacking/storing of medium to heavy loads and is ideally suited for storing small stocks of many different product types. Wide Span shelving is a common type of storage shelving which bridges the gap between standard commercial grade open and closed steel shelving (which has shelf and height size limitations) and standard pallet rack. This system features larger available shelf sizes, generally up to 96โ wide and up to 60โ deep. Wide span shelving also features greater shelf capacities than rivet or standard commercial grade steel shelving. Unlike Pallet Rack which incorporates a 3โW column, wide span shelving generally uses a 2โW column which allows for greater versatility and increased storage space.
Wide Span Shelving is a popular choice when designing multi-level pick locations like car dealerships or auto parts retail facilities.
The system is generally accessed on foot, either at floor level or from elevated walkways fitted between racks. Wide span shelving features multiple types of decking (wire, steel or particle board) and is similar in design to pallet rack as it utilizes three basic componentsโฆ uprights, beams and decking. Pair this rack solution with stairs and catwalks to create multi-level storage, maximizing the height of your project.
