Wire Shelving Systems

Wire Shelving, Open, Security & Mobile High-Density Configurations

 

Industrial wire shelving construction promotes higher visibility, allows light to pass through the shelves, and permits greater air circulation. This design helps reduce moisture and dust buildup and increases the effectiveness of fire suppression systems. Leveling feet are provided to compensate for uneven floor surfaces, ensuring the shelving unit remains stable and secure.


Product Lines Available:

♦ Wire Shelving, open wire construction allows airflow and visual inventory checks
♦ Security Shelving Units, enclosed, lockable design protects valuable or sensitive items
♦ Wire Shelves, Posts, Dividers, Casters, customizable components for tailored configurations
♦ Metro Top Track High Density Shelving System, track-mounted for high-density mobile shelving
♦ Metro Super Erecta Bulk Wine Shelving, maximizes wine storage density in commercial settings
♦ Metro Super Erecta Cradle Wine Shelving, cradle design securely stores wine bottles on their side


Selecting the Right Type:

♦ Security needs, choose Security Shelving Units for lockable protection, or standard Wire Shelving for open, general-purpose storage.
♦ Space efficiency, choose the Top Track High Density system for mobile, space-saving storage.
♦ Specialty applications, choose Bulk or Cradle Wine Shelving specifically for commercial wine storage.


Where Commonly Used:

♦ Stockrooms and Warehouses, open wire shelving improves airflow and visual inventory checks.
♦ Valuable or Sensitive Storage, security shelving units provide lockable protection.
♦ Space-Constrained Facilities, high-density mobile shelving maximizes storage in limited floor space.
♦ Wine Cellars and Commercial Storage, cradle and bulk configurations organize wine bottle storage.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is wire shelving?
Wire shelving is an open-construction shelving system built from welded wire shelves and adjustable posts rather than solid panels. The open design lets light pass through, allows air to circulate around stored goods, and keeps contents visible from the aisle. CustomMHS carries the full line of Metro wire shelving, backed by the manufacturer's warranty.
Why does open wire construction matter?
Airflow through the shelves reduces moisture and dust buildup on stored items, which matters in coolers, stockrooms, and anywhere product would otherwise sit in stagnant air. Open construction also increases the effectiveness of overhead fire suppression systems, since water can reach lower shelf levels instead of being blocked by solid decking above. Visibility is the third gain: staff can confirm contents and stock levels without pulling boxes forward.
What configurations are available?
Standard open wire shelving covers general purpose storage. Security shelving units add an enclosed, lockable design for valuable or sensitive items. The Metro Top Track high density system mounts units on tracks so they roll together, opening one aisle at a time. Metro Super Erecta bulk and cradle wine shelving handle commercial wine storage, with the cradle design supporting bottles on their side. Individual shelves, posts, dividers, and casters are available to build custom configurations.
How does high density mobile shelving save space?
Conventional shelving needs an open aisle between every run, and those aisles consume a large share of the room. Track-mounted shelving eliminates the fixed aisles by letting units roll along the floor track, so only the aisle currently in use stays open. That converts most of the aisle space into storage. The tradeoff is access speed, since retrieving from two adjacent runs at once requires moving units, which makes this a better fit for archival and reserve storage than for high-velocity picking.
How does wire shelving help your facility?
Faster visual inventory is the day-to-day benefit, since staff can see stock levels down an aisle rather than opening and unstacking containers to check. Reduced dust and moisture buildup means less cleaning and lower risk of product damage in storage areas that stay damp. Leveling feet compensate for uneven floors, which keeps units stable on the older concrete common in industrial buildings. Security shelving addresses shrinkage on high-value items without requiring a separate caged room, and the high density track system recovers floor space in facilities that have run out of room to expand.
