Selecting the Right Depth:

♦ 12" depth, minimum floor footprint for the smallest items stored in 6" wide positions.

♦ 18" depth, standard depth for most 6"-wide bin applications.

♦ 24" depth, maximum depth for higher per-opening volume or items requiring more front-to-back clearance.

♦ Starter vs. add-on units: Order one starter per row. Add-on units share a side panel and cannot stand alone.

Where Commonly Used:

♦ Parts Rooms Requiring Included Dividers and Shelves, facilities ordering complete bin shelving installations where dividers and internal shelf components are required as part of the unit, rather than ordered as accessories after the fact, use the 5530 to receive the complete organized configuration with included dividers and shelves.

♦ High-SKU Small Parts Storage with Organized Bin Positions, stockrooms, and maintenance departments storing 54 distinct small parts in labeled 6" wide positions at 9" opening height. Use the 5530 for organized, visible, high-density storage, with each position defined and separated by the included dividers.

♦ Assembly and Kitting Stations, assembly and kitting operations staging the full component variety in organized 6"-wide bin positions at the station. Use the 5530 when dividers are needed to keep adjacent parts separated and prevent mixing at high-velocity stations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is the Hallowell 5530 Hi-Tech Storage Bin Shelving system?
The Hallowell 5530 Hi-Tech Storage Bin Shelving is a robust shelving solution designed to organize small parts and supplies in workplaces like warehouses and maintenance rooms. It features 54 dedicated openings that hold bins securely and keep contents visible and accessible. The open-front design lets workers reach parts quickly without doors or drawers slowing them down. This makes it easier to maintain an orderly storage area where items are easy to find.
How do the 54 bin openings improve parts organization?
With 54 separate openings, each part type can have its own position, reducing mix-ups and lost items. Labeling each bin and keeping them logically grouped speeds up picking and restocking tasks. Visible bin storage also makes it simple to see when inventory levels are falling, so you can reorder before running out. Over time, this improves accuracy in both picking and inventory control.
What types of items and operations is this shelving best suited for?
This shelving works well for small parts such as fasteners, fittings, electrical hardware, and other loose items that need sorting. It is a good option for maintenance departments, supply rooms, assembly stations, and repair shops. The visibility and ease of access help reduce the time staff spend searching for parts. If your operation handles lots of small SKUs, this shelving helps keep everything organized and easy to retrieve.
What is the difference between a Starter Unit and an Add-on Unit for this shelving system?
A Starter Unit stands alone and includes full framing, so you can use it as is. An Add-on Unit connects to a Starter Unit to extend your storage row without needing a full frame on each section. This design saves space and material when you want continuous storage across a wall or aisle. It also lets you scale your system incrementally as your storage needs grow.
How should you plan bin placement and layout to optimize workflow?
Plan your layout so that the most frequently used parts are within comfortable reach for pickers and technicians. Group similar items together and label bins clearly to reduce time spent searching. Consider future growth and leave room to add more units if your inventory expands. Keeping workflow and access in mind during setup makes daily operations smoother and more efficient.
