Shelving

Wholesale Material Handling offers two types of shelving to meet your requirements, boltless shelving and steel shelving

Boltless Shelving

Boltless shelving utilizes a steel framework generally with a 5/8” particle board shelf. Because of the particle board shelves, boltless shelving is generally less expensive than steel shelving. Units can also be up to 4’ x 8’, significantly larger than the largest steel shelving available. Boltless shelving does not require any x-bracing, so units can be loaded from all 4 sides. Limitations of boltless are that it is always open and does not allow for closed sides and backs and dividers and doors are not available.

Steel Shelving

Steel shelving is a 100% steel system. Shelves are generally 3’ or 4’ in width. Shelf depths range from 12”D-36”D. Different gauge shelves offer a multitude of capacities. Steel units can be either open or closed. Closed units have side and back panels to keep product in units. Options of steel shelving include: dividers, bin fronts and doors. There is significantly more flexibility with steel shelving, but the larger amount of steel generally makes it more expensive than boltless.
