Longspan shelving and heavy duty, hand loaded warehouse storage

longspan shelving

If you have boxes of stock or other non-palletised items to store in your warehouse, there are a number of heavy duty shelving options for you to consider.

Our longspan shelving is always a very popular hand loaded storage option due to its strength, simplicity and versatility. Whether you need a small single bay to fit in a spare corner or multiple runs of five metre high archive storage, we can find a solution for you using this shelving system. Simply let us know the dimension of the space you need to fill, and the size of the items you will be storing, and we will help you to plan a layout that makes best use of your storage capabilities.

This warehouse storage system comes with everything you need. The upright frames are supplied assembled, with footplates attached and including levelling plates and fixing bolts to secure it to a concrete floor. Each shelving level comes with horizontal beams (with beam locks), chipboard shelving and support bars to ensure the maximum load capacity can be achieved. 430kg (uniformly distributed load) is the minimum each shelf will take, making this shelving suitable for almost every hand loaded storage scenario. Drop over steel shelves are available for food storage or where regular cleaning is required, and we can also supply garment rails for this type of shelving.

If you’ve got some really heavy non-palletised items, or just need to add picking levels to your existing bays, we can also supply used pallet racking with timber or wire mesh decking levels that can take up to 3 tonnes (uniformly distributed load).

As well as this, we have a range of bolted and boltless shelving options available for smaller areas, but still with load capacities of up to 400kg.

So whatever your hand loaded shelving needs, we can find the right solution for your business at a great price. Our deliveries cover the whole of the UK mainland, we have recently delivered shelving to customers in North London, Gloucester, Stockport and Falkirk.

If you are looking for a strong and versatile hand loaded shelving system, then our longspan is what you are looking for. Like a scaled down version of pallet racking, longspan shelving has upright frames and horizontal beams, but the beams have a Z profile which creates a lip to hold the chipboard shelf in place. Support bars mean that shelves can hold from 430kg to 1075kg UDL (depending on the beam size), making this range of shelving strong enough for most warehouse environments.

The upright frames are 2000mm to 5000mm high and 400mm to 1200mm deep. They are supplied assembled, with footplates attached and with fixing bolts and shims included. Beams are available from 950mm to 2700mm long and are supplied with beam locks.

This system can be used for tyre racking, archive storage, picking levels, office shelving or in any environment where strong hand loaded shelving is required.

Our longspan shelving is made by AR and we have huge stocks ready for dispatch in as little as two working days. If you require shelving from a different pallet racking manufacturer (Dexion, Link 51, Apex, PSS etc) please get in touch and we will provide the best price and lead time.

We deliver across the UK every day, so whether you are in Glasgow, Leeds, Bristol or Southampton we can give you a great delivered price.
