Used Shelving Systems for Sale — 73

It goes without saying that there are many different kinds of static and mobile shelving systems; however, getting the right fit is half the battle. Modern shelving systems vary greatly in size, shape, materials and fitment.

The Differences in Shelving Systems

The differences between shelving systems are fundamental. Pantry shelving systems for the kitchen, which are simple wooden shelving systems intended to support the weight of food, are going to be completely incompatible with van shelving systems, which need to be riveted in to an often slanted metal structure, and regardless of what cross-constructed jobs have been conducted, the fact remains that finding the right mobile or wall shelving systems does not have a single definitive solution.

The availability and range of storage shelving systems stretches far and wide, and the uses of such structures can be just as varied. Industrial shelving systems will need to be stronger, larger and more durable than standard wood shelving systems found in the home. Any industrial supply company will be able to provide a system that can be readily installed straight off the shelf, or for a higher premium, a more bespoke and fully tailored approach can be had. In today's automated world, adjustable shelving systems are the norm in many business environments, and it doesn't just stop at basics such as roller racking. An adjustable shelving system can incorporate just about any small or large business need, with entire systems that can accommodate a workforce walking around inside it, or the availability to be stacked onto a truck 'as is' and replaced with an empty, identical counterpart.

For smaller businesses who cannot afford a five or even six figure price tag, smaller commercial shelving systems are still an option. Companies such as Bruynzeel and Invicta, both market leaders in their field, can provide very competitively priced metal shelving systems to fit around budgets and more modest criteria, whilst still providing durability and ergonomic satisfaction.

For the home user, many will be familiar with the modular shelving system model; a system that appears to be made of stacked boxes, and on many occasions is just that; however, this design is now available from just about any home furniture specialist; DIY stores have a wealth of modular shelving systems in their ranges, and for a surprisingly low price. In a home DIY setting, garage shelving systems, complete with fixing kits, can be purchased easily and without much relative expense. The difference between a small home shelving kit and more robust steel shelving systems is that they are intended to be riveted to a primarily stone surface, and will be more long lasting in what is inevitably going to be a damper and wetter environment than the average lounge or bedroom. If a fully fledged steel shelving system sounds like overkill, more modestly priced wire shelving systems can still rise to the task and withstand grim weather conditions whilst ensuring that your items stay where you want them to stay.
