Hallowell Hi-Tech Bin Shelving System

Hallowell Hi-Tech Bin Shelving System | 12 Pre-Configured Opening Layouts

The Hallowell Hi-Tech Bin Shelving System is high-density compartmentalized shelving with pre-configured opening layouts built into the unit, not standard adjustable shelving with bins placed on top. Each model number (5525 through 5536) defines a specific combination of opening widths and heights, ranging from 6" wide x 6" high to 36" wide x 12" high, with total opening counts from 14 to 78 openings per unit depending on the model. The opening layout is determined at the model level and is not field-adjustable.

This system is designed for high-SKU small-parts environments where each item needs a defined, labeled position: hardware, fasteners, electrical components, maintenance consumables, and production-line small parts. The open-front compartments keep contents visible and accessible for fast picking without opening doors or moving bins. Industrial-grade steel construction handles demanding stockroom and production environments.

Twelve pre-configured models are available. Select the model whose opening layout most closely matches the size mix of the parts to be stored. Call CustomMHS at 866-333-0728 for guidance on matching the right model to your inventory.

Selecting the Right Model:

♦ Opening width, openings range from 6" to 36" wide across the twelve models. Narrower 6" openings maximize the number of positions for the smallest parts. Wider 12", 18", and 36" openings accommodate larger items that do not fit in 6" or 9" slots. Most models combine two or three opening widths to accommodate a range of part sizes in a single unit.

♦ Opening height: openings range from 6" to 12" high. Shorter 6" openings suit flat, thin parts. Taller 9" and 12" openings accommodate bulkier items. Models with mixed heights allow flat and bulky parts to be stored in the same unit.

♦ Total opening count, opening counts range from 14 (model 5525, all large 18" wide openings) to 78 openings (model 5529, primarily 6" wide x 6" high). Higher opening counts suit high-SKU environments where many distinct part numbers must each have a dedicated position. Lower opening counts suit environments storing fewer SKUs in larger quantities per position.

♦ Single-size vs. mixed-opening models, some models (5525, 5526, 5536) use a single opening width for uniform organization. Others (5527 through 5535) mix two to four opening sizes to accommodate a variety of part sizes within a single unit. Choose single-size when the inventory is homogeneous. Choose mixed when storing parts of different sizes that would waste space in a uniform-opening layout.

 

Where Commonly Used:

♦ Hardware and Fastener Stockrooms, which manage large fastener inventories across dozens of SKUs, use bin shelving to assign each bolt, nut, screw, and washer its own labeled position, providing an immediate visual count and preventing mixing of similar-looking parts.

♦ Maintenance Parts Storage for Small Consumables, maintenance departments storing electrical components, fittings, seals, clips, and consumables in labeled bin positions, use bin shelving to keep each part type accessible without searching through loose stock on open shelves.

♦ Electronics Assembly and Component Kitting: staging resistors, capacitors, connectors, and small components in labeled bin positions at the assembly station, using high-density bin shelving to keep the complete component set organized in a compact, visible footprint.

♦ Production Line Small Parts Staging, production lines staging fasteners, inserts, clips, and small hardware at the line use bin shelving to keep each part type in a defined, replenishable position visible to both the line worker picking parts and the material handler restocking from the aisle.

♦ Distribution Center Small Parts Picking: distribution operations picking small parts orders use bin shelving to create a dense, labeled pick face, where each SKU has a fixed, visible position, reducing pick errors and supporting efficient replenishment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is the Hallowell Hi Tech Bin Shelving System, and what is it designed for?
The Hallowell Hi Tech Bin Shelving System is a modular storage solution designed to organize small parts, components, and supplies. It combines open shelving with plastic bins to keep inventory visible and easy to access. This system is designed for environments where accuracy, speed, and organization matter. It works especially well in stockrooms, assembly areas, maintenance departments, and fulfillment operations.
How does modular bin shelving improve organization and efficiency?
Modular bin shelving lets you configure shelves and bins to meet your exact storage needs. Items are sorted by size, type, or use, reducing search time and picking errors. The open bin design makes it easy to see when stock is running low. Over time, this improves workflow and helps teams stay organized without constant rework.
What types of items are best stored in this bin shelving system?
This system is ideal for small- to medium-sized parts requiring quick access. Common items include hardware, fasteners, electrical components, maintenance supplies, and repair parts. It is also useful for kitting operations that require grouping multiple items. The bins keep loose items contained while still being easy to grab.
Why is high-density storage important for parts and supplies?
High density storage helps maximize available floor space without sacrificing accessibility. By storing more items in a smaller footprint, facilities can reduce clutter and free up room for production or workflow. Organized density also improves inventory control by keeping everything in a defined location. This is especially valuable in growing operations where space efficiency directly impacts productivity.
How does the Hallowell system support long-term flexibility?
The modular design allows shelves and bins to be reconfigured as storage needs change. As inventory grows or shifts, the system can adapt without replacing the entire setup. This makes it a smart option for businesses planning for future expansion. Long-term flexibility helps protect your investment as operations evolve.
