Longspan, Steel Shelving and Workbenches

Long span, metal shelving is great for storing small to medium-sized items and bulky material that are put away and accessed by hand.

This type of shelving is much less expensive than pallet racking and represents a cost-effective way to create durable, heavy duty storage capacity.

Quick Start Buying Guide

When making your purchase decisions about our long span shelving systems, it's useful to note the following points:

  • Always begin with a Starter Bay (2 blue uprights). You can then attach an add on bay (one upright only) or multiple addon bays to form a connected row of shelving
  • You can narrow your search by using the filters on the lefthand side of the page
  • If you need an extra shelf level you can find it here

Product Features

Product Size

Set out below are dimensions of our standard longspan bays. You can find more detailed information, like beam lengths, for all our multiple variants on the individual product pages of each metal shelving unit.

    Height - The upright frames come in standard heights of 2.0m, 2.4m and 2.7m.

    Width range - We have units that are: 1.0m, 1.5m. 2.0m and 2.5m in length.

    Depth - Our metal shelving units come in 2 depths: 0.6m (600mm) deep and 0.5m (500mm) deep


    Weight rating

    The weight rating (e.g. 300Kg) refers to the load capacity of a shelf in terms of its ability to carry a uniformly distributed load (UDL). All units with a similar weight rating are inter-connectable.
    We have 120Kg shelving if you need to store lighter items.


    Specifications

    All our storage systems are built from industrial quality steel and powder coated for durability. The decks are made from reinforced steel rather than being mesh decks.

    Our metal shelving comes in tri-colour (orange, blue and white) or in an off-white colour.

    The longspan shelving bays come with 4 tiers or shelves as standard, but you can have as many levels as you like. Buy an extra shelf level, if you need 5 tiers or build your unit from components if you need 2 or 3 levels of shelving.

    All the shelves are adjustable, so you can easily elevate them to whatever height you need.

    The metal shelving units are designed for easy assembly without tools, screws, bolts or accessories like a mounting bracket. The orange beams slide into grooves on the outside of the blue uprights and the white decks simply slot onto a slim ledge on the inside of the beams.

    Our metal shelving units are easy to adjust to any configuration you require to maximise the capacity of your floor space or to reconfigure as your storage needs change.

    The uprights have pre-drilled footplates that enable the unit to be fastened to the floor for added security. They can also be fastened to the wall.

    As well as being easy to assemble, the units are also easy to disassemble, flat pack for transport and install again, if you need to move.


    Modular Storage System

    The 0.6m deep, 300Kg/ level shelving system is a completely modular storage system of longspan shelving and workbenches that offers easy adjustment and great versatility:

    • The units are all inter-connectable
    • The components are interchangeable
    • The range is compatible with our range of heavy duty workbenches and tyre racking - they can all be connected together.

    Buy Components

    If you have specific storage requirements or a defined plan for your storage space, then you can buy individual components and extra levels to create the exact set of units and functionality you need to realise your ideas.

    It makes it easy to add to or reconfigure your shelving as your needs change over time.
