Shelving Display & Storage Shelves

You can make quick, easy, and cost effective changes to your existing store layout with shelving display units sold by Easy Rack.
Our shelving display units offer you a compact design that is easy to move around and create all sorts of custom displays with. Measuring a mere 48” across, both double-sided and single-sided steel display units can be connected together to create aisles shelving and wall racks of any length and height. They can also be maneuvered individually into key spots where you can use them as special holiday sales displays. Larger, less symmetrical units are too hard to move in this fashion, and they seldom look very attractive, either.

Mixing things up from time to time like this takes only a few minutes when you use highly flexible, adjustable shelving system displays. It is also a great way for you do distinguish yourself from your less creative and strategic competition.

Easy Rack shelving display units will enable you to place your hottest and most valuable items in positions of prominence.
Because they are brightly painted in any number of colors, they are ideal compliments to your holiday decor. You can place them in locations you may not have previously thought appropriate for a display. For instance, if you have a store with two entrances on either side, placing a double-sided used shelving display unit directly between them can attract the attention of shoppers coming in from both directions. This is a great way to merchandise discount items and children’s toys.

You can also minimize loss to theft if you by the right shelving display units.
You may have previously bought shelving units that were as tall as possible because you wanted to display as much inventory as possible. You probably realized after the fact that many shoplifters took advantage of exceptionally tall commercial shelving display units and hid behind them while stealing. This can easily be overcome by replacing these units with display shelving that is shorter, but has more cubic volume due to its adjustable features. Easy Rack units allow you to move the shelves within the display anywhere you like, You can also vary the depth of each shelf to ensure that light reaches the display at all levels.

Space management and planning is the key to all of this.
During Christmas, you may not have time to think of all the innovative ways to use these highly versatile shelving units in your store. Easy Rack will help you develop a new merchandising strategy if you express serious interest in these products. Simply fax or email a blueprint or some photos of the store and we will be glad to offer you some suggestions on how to maximize your marketing potential in the hopes of recession proofing your business.

Used Industrial Pallet Racks

Why should we buy used industrial pallet racks instead of new ones?
Because they are just as good, and because they can save up to 40% of your procurement budget.

Is there any difference between an industrial pallet rack and a heavy duty pallet rack?
No, the two terms are actually synonyms. Industrial pallet racking is used for the most extreme of heavy duty storage needs. Normally, used industrial pallet racks have steel decks rather than wire decks because they are used to support very large containers of liquid, sensitive materials, engine parts, and other large items that require a sturdy and stable support platform.

Are used industrial pallet racks stable?
Yes. Especially racking systems made with Easy Rack’s boltless design. Riveted systems are not as reliable. When large amounts of weight are placed in the center of a bolted design rack, the center begins to bow and can possibly collapse. Boltless designs do not buckle in the middle like this, and they are much easier to assemble as well. This improvement in safety helps prevent worker injury and can potentially generated a higher safety rating for your facility.

How much weight can used industrial pallet racks support?
Used industrial pallet racks can support up to 48,000 pounds. They are made with structural steel components and are made especially for impact resistance to forklift collisions in areas where there is heavy traffic.

Do you sell pre-fabricated used industrial pallet racks or custom systems as well?
We sell both. We can a used industrial pallet rack per your specifications in any part of the country. However, we strongly urge you to consider having a material handling representative spec out a custom racking system designed to be used for one or more specific applications at your location. Custom Industrial pallet racks can be built using completely used parts and passed on at a savings equivalent to pre-fabricated systems. This is especially important for facilities located in extreme climates and/or intermittent seismic activities.

Customizing industrial pallet racks per use and applications is probably the safest, most efficient, and most cost effective solution to your material storage needs.

Used Heavy Duty Pallet Racks

Used heavy duty pallet racking helps companies consolidate and streamline inventory management—at up to 40% less the cost of new racking systems. The complexities of auto parts, paper products, liquids, and tire storage can be systematically and cost effectively addressed with Easy Rack used heavy duty pallet racking. An enormous variety of decks, dimensions, and weight capacities is only a phone call away for the warehouse or factory that requires heavy duty shelving, storage space, heavy duty racking, and boltless designs in long span storage racks. All of these components and systems can be purchased in excellent, used condition and utilized for maximizing both your square footage and your vertical cube space for expanded storage.

Boltless heavy duty pallet racking and used pallet rack systems.

The boltless design will not bow in the middle when a large amount of weight is placed on top of it. Used Boltless heavy duty pallet racking offers organizations extra warehouse space for large and bulky materials in a durable and safe design that can be used for a wide variety of industrial storage needs. These heavy duty pallet rack systems assemble with snap together parts that require no clips, bolts or tools. They are specifically designed for loading heavy bulky materials with a forklift or pallet jack.

The following summary represents just a few of the benefits companies can count on receiving from used heavy duty pallet racking, shelves, and rack trusses on sale at Easy Rack:

Used teardrop heavy duty pallet racking is the most popular storage system we sell.

The 2” vertical range allows for flexible height adjustment.

Standard Widths measuring 64" & heights to 300" will cover almost all heavy duty storage applications.

Strong & reliable upright truss are made from heavy channel bracing soundly welded to height tensile steel columns.

Safety is maximized by the boltless design feature.

All finishes are iron phosphate and powder coated to protect storage rack components.

Standard Pallet Racking Colors: dura-green frames and safety orange-beams.

Weight capacities can range as high as 35,000 lbs.

All teardrop style used industrial pallet racking components are made in accordance with the Racking Manufacturer's Institute and conform to light gage cold form standards.

What to look for when buying used heavy duty pallet racking and storage rack systems:

Insurance plays a critical role anytime a company invests in either new or used heavy-duty pallet storage racking.

Ruggedness and safety are key issues to discuss in detail with your commercial insurance agent.

Making certain that you comply with all industry standards will work toward minimizing liability when using heavy duty storage racking.

One more thing to pay very close attention to is your local fire code. A good part the country now requires wire decking in heavy duty pallet racking systems because steel and wooden decking will block the water coming from ceiling sprinklers in the event of a fire. While steel decks are still used for the heaviest duty industrial storage needs, there are many storage applications where wire decking will do just as well and also keep your facility in full compliance with regulatory agencies. Again, this is a matter to discuss with your commercial property insurance agent and Easy Rack material handling specialist.

Used Pallet Racking

Used pallet racking saves companies as much as 40% of the purchase cost of new equivalents. Used pallet racking by Easy Rack is available in all standard types, sizes, and styles on a nationwide basis. Pallet racking systems can also be custom designed with the assistance of an Easy Rack material handling specialist. They can be built to match interior warehousing conditions, terrain, specific climate, and the seismic environment of a particular region of the country.

What is the best design for used pallet racking?
The "best" design is often determined by the application and is therefore hard to point to as an absolute standard. The industry standard for most applications is used pallet racking in teardrop design.

Used teardrop pallet racks are made using a boltless design that makes assembly and adjustment easier. This also keeps the platform more stable and prevents it from buckling in the middle. Teardrop used pallet racking is braced with heavy channel steel and is supported by tensile steel columns that keep the entire structure immobile and therefore more stable when storing a large amount of weight.

What type of pallet racking should be used in heavy fork truck traffic areas?
In these areas, we recommend you install heavy-duty, industrial used pallet racking that can handle weight capacities of 48,000 lbs and are built to withstand occasional fork truck collisions.

What is the best type of decking to use?
That depends on the application. Steel decks are recommended for the most heavy-duty industrial storage provided they comply with fire codes. In medium and light duty storage, wire decks are generally preferred because of fire control issues. If the sprinkler system in a warehouse or factory is triggered, water can flow between the mesh of the wire without being stopped by a solid platform.

What is the difference between custom warehouse pallet racking and custom structural pallet racking?
Used warehouse pallet racking systems are built to organize and store materials that anticipate future expansion. These systems are designed so they can be adapted and added onto as the size and storage needs of a facility increases.

Used Structural Heavy Duty Pallet Racking is made for impact resistance in high traffic areas. Easy Rack builds structural upright systems in a variety of well-known, standard styles such as Inca, Sturdibilt, Steel King, Frazier, Arco, and Speedrack.

If you are uncertain which type of used pallet racking, supports, system style, or deck you require for your organization, it is best to have a custom system built to the exact specifications of your storage facility, the parameters of your operations, and the changes anticipated due to forecasted growth. If you provide your Easy Rack specialist with this information, we can perform all the necessary calculations to build your system to safely maximize your storage space and improve your inventory control.

Shelving Racks & Rack Shelves

Rack Shelving transforms floor space, walls, and large sections of the vertical cube into organized storage space. Shelving racks are made from the highest commercial grade steel and can be obtained in any size or industrial strength. New and used models ban be ordered in open backed shelf racks, closed back racks, or wide span units. Shelving racks are often connected together either side by side or one on top of the other. It is not unusual to find several open backed units connected side by side and used to store paperwork and company files. Closed backed shelving systems can be linked together one on top of the other in a “box shelving” configuration that can hold up to 2,000 pounds of weight.

The strength and longevity of Easy Rack shelving is unmatched in the material handling industry. Each unit, regardless of build or weight capacity, is coated with two layers of protection prior to being drop shipped to its destination. The first protective layer is a coating of iron phosphate that prevents oxidation from salt air and airborne industrial pollutants. The second protective layer is baked enamel painted onto the steel racking that helps reduce dents and warping during use and accidental impacts.

The commercial grade steel used in the manufacture of our rack systems ranks as the highest in the industry. Because bay doors and loading docks of many facilities are often open to the outdoors—and therefore exposed to extremes in heat and cold in many parts of the country—Easy Rack commercial shelving systems are reinforced with the highest commercial grade metal protectors to make sure your material storage units withstand the elements over the course of many years of use and extended exposure to climate variations.

Two of our most popular and versatile rack shelving options are industrial metal warehouse shelves and long span and wide-span warehouse shelving, also known as Rivet Rack Shelves.

Industrial Rack Warehouse Shelving
Warehouse storage shelving racks are frequently stacked on top of each other and bolted together to create boxed shelving systems. Such systems can easily hold up to 2,000 pounds of material.

Warehouse shelves can be bought as in either open-backed units or close-back units. Open-back shelf systems give employees convenient access to materials from all four sides. Closed back units act like cabinets that can either be stood against the wall or shut tight and locked up after hours.

Long-Span Shelving Racks
Long span used commercial shelving racks are designed to stand to the side of a room or warehouse and convert horizontal and vertical wall space into storage shelving. These wide span units can be linked end-to end to cover the entire wall of a large facility, or they can be used as stand-alone units behind counters in retail service centers, parts stores, and hardware stores.

Wide span shelving is made from 24-gauge steel shelving supported by steel beams built around a two-piece design. This increases the shelving rack’s center of gravity and allows it to evenly distribute loads that weigh up to 35,000 pounds.

Easy Rack carries a wide variety of custom made shelving, commercial shelving, material handling equipment, commercial lighting, used pallet racks, and modular prefab buildings installed nationwide.

Commercial Shelving

The benefits of commercial widespan shelving provide both the motivation and the return on investment that justifies their procurement in the first place. The variety of commercial shelving is extensive, ranging from smaller, portable commercial shelves and racks to heavy duty industrial commercial pallet racking systems. The intent behind this diversity is to provide the most efficient conversion of floor space and vertical cube space into an optimum environment for one or more specific types of contents. As a general principle, any item or container that features symmetric or proportional dimensions and has at least one flat surface can be stored on some sort of commercial shelf or metal rack. This is because shelving systems themselves are rectangular in design and provide horizontal storage space in ascending rows. Round containers can be stored on shelves provided they too have a flat surface on the end with a sufficient radius to balance and support their weight. Irregularly sized materials such as tubing, pipe, furniture, Sheetrock, and flooring supplies normally require more specialized storage areas such as those provided by cantilever racks.

Because symmetry and balance determine which materials you can store on heavy duty commercial shelves, weight plays a secondary role in determining which units you will need for your facility. Most 18 gauge and 20 gauge steel shelving units can easily support 400-450 lbs in weight. This is normally sufficient for the average crate or box, and because these commercial shelves feature sufficiently compact builds to be positioned in a number of places, anything from stockrooms to the entirety of a wall can be reorganized with as many of these units as you need to stack and store materials, products, supplies, tools, and even paperwork. (Some of our smaller shelving systems routinely find their way into the offices of managers who use them for easy access to drawings and materials that need to be worked on throughout the day).

Larger commercial shelves, such as cantilever racks are meant for more heavy duty storage. If you are storing parts in large crates, any number of industrial strength shelves can help you safely and efficiently do this. Your choices are best determined by considering three factors when making your selection. The first is safety. With extremely large items or heavy containers, make absolutely certain that you invest in a commercial shelving system whose weight capacity exceeds the total weight of items. Maxing out a brand new storage system is never a good idea. A worker may not be aware of this, store additional materials on a system already at full capacity, and cause the unit to become unstable. The second is accessibility. If you only need to retrieve items from the front of the shelf, commercial wide span systems offer you some of the most powerful storage units in existence and the added stability of resting against a wall. Open ended systems, however, are often required for items that have to be retrieved by a team of people continually throughout the day, such as you see in many assembly lines. Finally, the actual length, height, and depth of the commercial shelf you invest in really needs to be assessed in terms of floor space/vertical cube space conversion. The total dimensions of a shelf are not always indicators of the actual interior, usable storage space. To make certain every square cubic inch pays your back for your investment, talk to your material handling specialist about usable storage solutions, weight capacity, accessibility, and methods of ensuring the unit remains stable and secure in every conceivable scenario.

Easy Rack maintains a full selection of small, mid-sized, and heavy duty steel commercial racking systems, including wide span units that can be used in places ranging from service center areas behind the front desk to large warehouses where voluminous storage must be consolidated along the walls to make way for heavy traffic. If cost is an issue, our procurement and distribution network can locate any commercial shelf you find on our website and obtain it for you in quality, used condition—sometimes for a discount of up to 40%.

Shelving & Storage Solutions

Easy Rack storage solutions and shelves include everything from pallet racks for general pallet storage racks to medium and heavy duty cantilever racks. Both lines of material handling products offer flexibility and customization. High density storage, tool storage, and parts organization can be accomplished with any number of bin storage cabinets and bar racks, maximizing your floor space and converting unused vertical cube space in the process.

Here are a few of the key features and benefits of industrial metal shelving:

Industrial-Steel-Shelving Units
Industrial steel shelving is another term commonly used for open-ended Wide span, or Long span industrial shelving. Long span design creates efficient, compartmentalized storage space out of floor space adjacent to any wall. Long span units are available in sizes of up to 24-gauge and provide excellent, reliable storage platforms for large pieces of equipment, motor parts, or construction materials. They are also very good for chemical storage because they have been especially designed for corrosion resistance.

Steel Warehouse Shelving
There are two primary categories of steel warehouse shelving: open and closed. Open metal shelving allows you to access materials from the side as well as from the front. These shelves are normally taller than wide and can serve as excellent tools for converting unused vertical space into storage area. Closed metal shelving offers the security and stability of cabinetry and can even be folded together like a book. Of course, these units are far better than cabinets or bookcases because their steel construction allows even the smallest units to easily support 450lbs of materials.

Rivet Shelving Units
Rivet shelving is the least expensive of our metal shelf categories, and it is ideal for companies on tight budgets. Rivet shelves allow you to access material from all sides and do not use braces that could obstruct storage access.

Mezzanine Shelving & Decking Systems
Mezzanine shelving systems can literally create floor space out of air space and increase storage area up to 150%. This type of metal shelving should be strongly considered if you are facing an upcoming move. Often mezzanines can create so much extra room they eliminate the need to spend money on relocation.

Pallet Rack Shelving
Just about all materials are shipped on pallets of some kind. As such, metal pallet rack shelves are standards in almost all modern warehouses and an absolute must for warehouses adjacent to a factory. They enable organizations to streamline process flow by keeping materials securely stored on pallets from the time of delivery all the way up till they are used in the manufacturing process.

Used Commercial Shelving, Industrial Widespan & Open Back Storage Shelves at Discount Prices from Easy Rack.

What benefits can we obtain from buying used commercial shelving?
Used commercial shelving offers the immediate, tangible benefit of savings that total 20% on the average in comparison to new equipment procurement costs. Pricing can be even lower based upon current availability.

Buying a used commercial industrial shelving system at a discount can offset the temptation to purchase new, but cheaper grade materials, which will generally not hold up in the long run. This offers you the best in manufacturing quality at a used-savings discount that eliminates the need to cut corners on quality.

What sizes and models are available in your inventory?
Easy Rack’s inventory offers models with weight capacities ranging from 450 pounds up to 2,000 pounds. We have open-backed units, close-backed units, and Widespan commercial shelving systems available in all gauges, sizes, and strengths.

What are the best uses for open-back units?
Generally, open back commercial shelves are used for storing lighter materials in warehouses and offices. Weight capacities for our many models range between 450-500 lbs. Open-back commercial shelves are excellent tools for conserving horizontal space because they tend to be taller than they are wide.

What is the difference between open-backed shelving systems and Widespan systems?
Widespans are a form of open-backed commercial shelving that are longer than they are tall.
For heavier storage capacities, or for environments where horizontal space conservation is less of an issue, you might want to consider using Widespan shelving. Based on open-backed design, Widespan industrial steel shelving normally feature wood-decked shelves reinforced by metal supports and support weight capacities of up to 2,000 lbs. The heavy-duty models are ideal storing equipment and heavy containers in warehouses.

Lighter-gauge Widespan shelving provides excellent document storage space in office environments. They also make excellent storage areas for hardcopy data and larger items such as bankers’ boxes.

You will also see Widespans used a great deal in auto repair shops behind service counters. Their extended horizontal space provides a large storage area without encroaching on walkway areas behind the counter.

How are closed-back units mostly used?
Closed back commercial shelving units are often used like cabinets because their backs and sides provide additional support and added stability. They can be folded together to protect sensitive materials such as chemicals and certain forms of paint.

Both lighter and heavier gauge closed back commercial shelves can be used for systematic component storage. Separators inserted into the shelves can create bin areas where small parts can be stored neatly and separately to make inventory more accurate and efficient.

What are some other benefits that Easy Rack can provide?
One of the primary advantages Easy Rack offers beyond face value cost savings is in-depth consultation and planning services to serious callers.
