The portability of racking
Space is a valuable commodity. It needs to be used wisely or else it is wasted, and so is money. These days, everything costs money, whether it’s the materials for construct a building, or the ground were the building will be situated, or simply the space within the building that stock will be taking up. If floor space is not properly utilised then more cash has to be spent to make more space available.
Mobile racking and high density storage is a cost effective method of utilising valuable floor space. Mobile racking reduces the number of access aisles associated with conventional static systems. Storage units are fitted onto mobile carriages which move along concealed floor tracks. Carriages are moved from side to side to create access aisles for document retrieval, or timber retrieval depending on the business. The mobile racking system is versatile and brings hope to even the most chaotic of storage scenarios.
There are 3 methods of moving the carriages to suit clients’ requirements: simple hand-pull systems, mechanically driven carriages by turning hand wheels and electric motors with push button control.
A hand-pull system can be just the ticket.
Hand driven mechanical systems are operated by a hand wheel, which is linked to a drive shaft by a gear reduction chain for easy operation. Each handle is fitted with an immobilisation plunger to prevent accidental closure.
Electrically operated powered motor systems are designed to take the manual effort out of mobile storage.
There is thus a broad choice of storage solutions that are sure to solve any business storage problems.
