Boltless Shelving http://woodshelving.org/boltless-shelving/ http://woodshelving.org/boltless-shelving/#comments Sun, 05 Dec 2010 16:09:56 +0000 Wood Shelving http://woodshelving.org/?p=53 Shelves are a common fixture in most properties and are a useful feature for storing a range of possessions in plain sight.

There are a few styles of shelving that can be used, with free standing units being an option. These can have a few different styles of assembly, with boltless shelving being one of the simplest and most convenient to put together.

Many styles of shelving will use a system of nuts and bolts to hold the various components together. However this generally requires tools to assemble the unit and also if any of the bolts are missing when delivered it can be frustrating trying to find a replacement. A simpler style that does away with the need for nuts and bolts is a boltless shelving system. This also goes by a few other names with rivet shelving being one of the most common of these. In this style the various components typically have small fixtures on them which enable them to be clipped together and interlock without the need for any separate connector pieces.

The obvious advantages of a boltless shelf unit are that it is much quicker and easier to build. With no tools required the components can be removed from the box when delivered and simply clipped together by hand. This style is preferred by many people for its convenience and there are a range of manufacturers that both make and sell shelving with boltless assembly.

Buy Rack is a company that has a few different categories of boltless shelving for sale and these include industrial, modular and Z-beam shelving units. These typically have a metal frame, although the shelves are available in a few different materials including particle board, laminated board or metal wire. The cost for the various units they have available starts at around $80 to $90 for smaller units and can increase to around $350 for some of the larger shelving units.

There are a number of other manufacturers that have boltless shelving systems available and some of these include Action Wholesale Products, Cisco Eagle and Vistamation. These can be good companies to look to for shelving which uses a boltless assembly system.

Boltless shelving can also be found for sale in a number of stores with Home Depot being an example of this. They have a range of boltless shelf units available from the Edsal Manufacturing Company and these typically start at a cost of just under $300 for the smaller units available. For some of the larger boltless shelf units however the cost can increase to in excess of $500. The units are manufactured of heavy duty steel and can either come with small legs or set on wheels.

If you require free standing shelf units for your property, a boltless shelving system is one to consider. They are a convenient style that is easy to put together by anyone and can be a useful addition to have in a home or commercial building for storing possessions.

Adjustable Shelving http://woodshelving.org/adjustable-shelving/ http://woodshelving.org/adjustable-shelving/#comments Sun, 05 Dec 2010 16:06:41 +0000 Wood Shelving http://woodshelving.org/?p=49 There are a variety of ways that items can be stored in a property with one of the more common options being shelves. These typically store items on display such that they can easily be seen and retrieved when needed. There are a couple of main options available when erecting shelves and while fixed shelving is a useful option, adjustable shelving can provide a more versatile system which can be modified to suit different storage requirements.

Adjustable shelving is typically available such that it can be either mounted on a wall or be free standing. The most common style available on the market has a metal frame which is fixed to a wall and this is set up such that the brackets and shelves can be arranged in a variety of ways. By being able to move the shelving around it means the system can be set up to suit the items being stored and if the storage requirements change the shelving can easily be adjusted to suit. This is the major advantage that adjustable shelves have over the fixed style.

It is simple to use adjustable shelving in a range of locations. In the home it is an ideal storage style for a range of rooms with kitchens, garages and basements being some of the locations where they can be a useful addition. However the adjustable style of shelving is also commonly used in commercial settings and can be used in office storage rooms, factories and libraries, to name a few of the options.

If you are in the market for an adjustable shelving system there are a few manufacturers that produce these. Rubbermaid is a well known company that produces simple adjustable shelves. They have a system that is known as FastTrack shelving. This is a simple wall mounted system where the uprights, rather than being fixed to the wall, are set up on a hanging rail, with the brackets and shelves then fixed to the upright. With the hanging rail being the only part that is actually fixed to the wall the FastTrack system is an easy and quick system to adjust when needed. The separate components of the system are sold individually and this means that it is easy to buy what you need to erect a custom built shelving unit. Costs for the individual pieces of the FastTrack system are typically around $10 for the uprights, $18 for wire shelves and $9 for the brackets.

There are a few other manufacturers that produce adjustable shelving systems. Some of the options available include Wall Perfect and they have adjustable shelve kits available which retail for around $39 for a 2 shelf kit and $60 for a 3 shelf kit. Knape and Vogt is another option and they have light, medium and heavy duty adjustable shelves available with the price depending on the size and strength of the shelves. Both these companies have online stores where their products can be purchased.

If you have the requirement for a convenient storage system that enables the items being stored to be easily seen and accessed, then an adjustable shelving system is an option to consider. There are a few options on the market and these are typically versatile systems that can be set up and modified as required to suit your storage needs.
