Hallowell 5536-12 Hi-Tech Metal Bin Starter Shelving – 36"W x 12"D x 87"H, 21 Bin Openings with 3" Front Lips

Hallowell 5536-12 Hi-Tech Metal Bin Starter Shelving

The Hallowell 5536-12 Hi-Tech Metal Bin Starter Shelving is purpose-built for assigned-location parts storage where visibility and retention matter. Each of the 21 openings features a 3" high front bin lip, helping keep contents in place while still allowing fast, one-hand access during picking.

In a typical installation, each SKU is assigned to a dedicated opening, allowing workers to quickly identify, pick up, and replenish parts with minimal error. This setup reduces search time, improves inventory accuracy, and keeps high-traffic parts areas running smoothly.

The 12" depth makes this model ideal for wall-line storage, narrow aisles, and compact parts rooms where space efficiency matters. Despite the slim footprint, the consistent 12" x 12" openings make organization predictable and straightforward—no guessing which bin fits which part.

The starter unit is complete and freestanding, ready to install as a standalone bay or as the anchor for a longer shelving run. When expansion is needed, adder units connect to the starter and share a side panel, allowing you to build continuous rows while reducing material cost per added section.

Built from durable steel with closed back and side panels, this system keeps inventory contained and storage areas clean. Adjustable, removable dividers ensure the shelving adapts as your parts mix changes over time.
