A Guide to New Age Industrial Adjustable Shelving

Adjustable shelving can be configured in nearly unlimited ways including the size, type and number of shelves, shelving unit height, and accessories. It can be configured to handle small, lighter boxes or heavy items. New Age Industrial has a variety of add-on shelving accessories that allow you to create the perfect solution for cold or dry storage.
 
To design an adjustable shelving unit, begin by choosing the height and width of the space. Our adjustable shelving units are available in various heights. They can be as short as 12” high and increase incrementally to 96” high. Shelf widths range from 30” to 96”. Keep in mind, the 96” wide units require two additional posts at the front and back center for stability. Our shelving unit depths range from 15” to 30”. Once the overall size has been determined, selecting the desired shelf types is the next step to creating an ideal storage solution. Choose only one shelf type or mix and match them, even in the same unit.  
Heavy Duty (HD) Shelves
 
Our Heavy Duty (HD) Shelves offer the highest weight capacity of the New Age Industrial adjustable shelving line. With a weight capacity of up to 2000lbs per shelf, they accommodate even the heaviest loads. They are designed for large items or bulk storage and are typically used as the bottom shelf. We do offer an economical version of our HD Style shelf which features the same general design and is no slouch! Each shelf can handle loads of up to 1100lbs.
T-Bar Shelves 
 
T-Bar Shelves are designed to hold small items and storage containers. This shelf type has slats that are a “T” shaped. They give you the best of both worlds, providing a smooth, flat surface to slide boxes on and off that is easy to clean. The slats let air circulate around items, even in walk-in cooler environments, so they are excellent for perishables. Each shelf has a weight capacity of 1500lbs. The economy version T-Bar Style shelf features larger gaps between the slats with a weight capacity of 900lbs.
Solid Brute Shelves 
 
New Age Industrial Solid Brute Shelves have a removable solid top for items to slide across effortlessly when loading or unloading. This solid top accommodates your smallest packages or loose items. An advantage of this shelf type is that the top can be removed and cleaned separately from the shelving unit rather than cleaning it inside your storage room or cooler/freezer. Solid Brute Shelves hold up to 800lbs apiece.  
Solid Shelves
 
Like Solid Brute Shelves, our Solid Shelves are utilized for small packages and lightweight items. They feature a 400lbs weight capacity per shelf. This shelf type is great for storing products that are prone to leaking since they feature a marine edge. This creates a lip that helps to contain small drips and leaks. The solid sheet is not removable on this shelf type.
Make Them Mobile
 
All shelving units are easy to make mobile by choosing from two different options to add casters. Simply select one of our mobile bases which are designed with heavy duty plate casters that attach directly to the base. These will handle large amounts of weight but are limited to 24” depth and 36”, 48”, and 60” lengths. Another way to make your shelving mobile is by using stem casters. These casters can be added to any of our adjustable shelving units and are simple to install, sliding right inside the bottom of the shelving posts.  
 
Add Accessories
 
We have many accessories available for our shelving units. Adjustable feet allow for minor height adjustments and easy leveling. Floor post brackets attach to the bottom of the posts and can be bolted to the floor. Wall mount brackets are u-shaped metal brackets used to secure shelving units to a wall. Pole clips are designed to connect two shelving units with one set of common uprights.
