Ideal for Many Different Environments
Heavy duty metal shelving stands out as a complete storage system that is ideal for many different environments. They suit both business and residential environments, including garages, sheds, and indoor spaces.
Whether you’re managing a warehouse, setting up a retail store, or simply optimizing your garage, these shelves are designed to handle substantial loads while maximizing your space utilisation.
They can easily adapt to different storage needs and environments, providing versatile storage solutions for any setting. In this blog, we’ll explore the features and benefits of longspan, steel shelving and why it’s the perfect solution for your storage needs.
Features of Our Metal Shelving Units
Some of the key advantages of longspan, heavy duty shelving derive from the following features.
Load Capacity
Longspan shelving is designed to support heavy loads, making them ideal for heavy-duty use in various storage applications. Our heavy duty range is designed to carry large weight loads up to 300Kg per level as a Uniformly Distributed Load (UDL).
Adjustable Heights Versatile Design
The units feature adjustable shelves that are easily moved up and down, so you can set them at any height to fit different sized items.
We sell individual components and extra shelf kits, so you can easily create shelving with 2, 3 or 5+ tiers.
Durable Coating
All our long span products are powder-coated to provide an aesthetically pleasing and durable finish that is hard wearing and resistant to corrosion. Any spills can be easily cleaned with a damp cloth.
This coating makes maintenance simple, helping to protect shelves from rust and corrosion, and ensuring they remain in excellent condition with minimal effort.
Ease of Assembly
Installing longspan shelving is easy and does not require any tools, bolts or brackets. The upright frames come as one solid piece (nothing to assemble) and there aren't any bolts attaching the beams to the uprights. Our longspan shelving utilises a click-in system, allowing the horizontal beams and the decks to simply slot into place. So installation is a breeze.
Extendable Storage System
Our longspan shelving system is designed for efficient expansion and and flexible customization. We have add on units (one upright post rather than 2, will not stand alone) that can be connected to an existing, free standing shelving unit to make a connected row of shelving.
All our shelving, tyre racks and workbenches have add on kits that you can see as you browse our range here. So you can purchase additional units and individual components as and when you need them.
Benefits of Our Shelving Units
Strength and Durability
All our products are engineered from high quality steel to support significant weight capacity without bending or buckling. The 0.5mm thick shelf panels are reinforced underneath with strong back supports. This sturdy support completely eliminates weak points and helps to prevent bowing of the material.
Versatility for Various Applications
While these heavy duty metal shelving units are designed and constructed for commercial usage, they also look great. They are as equally at home in industrial shelving applications like warehouses as they are in retail spaces, cold storage environments or being used as heavy duty garage shelving.
They are a versatile storage option that is ideal for storing machinery parts, bulky retail goods, industrial equipment, archive storage and general purpose carton storage.
Storage Space Optimization
Our shelving range comes in heights of 2.0m, 2.4m and 2.7m and widths of 1.0m, 1.5m, 2.0m and 2.5m. The variety of sizes makes it easy to configure your storage system to optimize your available space. These shelving units are designed to help you save space and keep your storage area organized.
Enhanced Safety
Each shelving unit has floor plates with predrilled holes. So the units can be fixed to the floor for added safety and security.
We also have floor leveling plates or shims that can be used to level up the shelving units when the floor is uneven.
Improved Accessibility and Visibility
Long span shelving is open on both sides. So stored items are easy to find and can be retrieved quickly. In a commercial setting, this improves efficiency and the workflow of the operation.
Applications of Heavy Duty Storage Shelves
Here are some common use cases where heavy duty storage racks excel:
-
Warehouses: For storing bulk inventory or heavy equipment safely.
-
Retail Stores: For organizing products efficiently while maintaining accessibility.

Home Garage: For keeping tools, spare parts, hardware, and seasonal items neatly arranged. They combine well with cabinets to expand the functionality of a garage. These shelving units are also suitable for use in sheds.
