Leaving equipment and inventory stacked on the floor of a shipping container leads to damaged goods, safety hazards, and wasted vertical space. The Adjustable Heavy – Duty 3 – Tier Shipping Container Racking (5 Bay System)<\/b> transforms any standard ISO container into an organized, high – density warehouse unit.<\/p>\n
Engineered to span the internal length of a 20ft container (or half the wall of a 40ft unit), this 5 – bay modular shelving setup utilizes structural steel uprights and heavy – duty box beams to hold industrial tools, building supplies, automotive parts, and commercial stock safely off the deck.<\/p>\n
No Wall Drilling Required:<\/b> The freestanding frame design rests securely against the internal floor, eliminating the need to drill, weld, or alter the container’s Corten steel walls or ruin its weatherproof seal.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Rapid Boltless Assembly:<\/b> Built with a heavy – duty keyhole lock mechanism, allowing two people to assemble all 5 bays in under 45 minutes using only a rubber mallet.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n 640kg UDL Per Level:<\/b> Reinforced beam profiles prevent sagging under extreme loads, accommodating up to 9,600 kg<\/b> across the entire 5 – bay installation when load is uniformly distributed (UDL).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Pitch Adjustments:<\/b> Upright frames feature 50mm adjustment increments, enabling you to reconfigure shelf heights instantly to fit large machinery, storage crates, or Euro pallets.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n Powder – Coated Finish:<\/b> Finished with a tough, impact – resistant epoxy powder coat that resists moisture, rust, and chemical spills inside unconditioned container environments.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Heavy – Duty Decking Options:<\/b> Choose between 18mm high – density, moisture – resistant timber decking panels or drop – in steel wire mesh decks for hazardous material airflow.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n Standard 20ft Container Fitment:<\/b> A 5 – bay run fits continuously along one 20ft side wall, leaving ample central aisle clearance for personnel and pallet trucks.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Standard 40ft Container Fitment:<\/b> Install two 5 – bay kits end – to – end to line a complete 40ft wall, or run a single 5 – bay setup alongside a container office conversion.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Floor Loading Considerations:<\/b> Ensure your container floor is level and free of debris prior to loading the racking frames to ensure equal load distribution across all footplates.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n A 5 – bay container racking system is specifically sized to fit along one full side wall of a standard 20ft shipping container, maximizing vertical storage space while leaving a clear central walkway.<\/p>\n No. Our 3 tier shipping container shelving or industrial container storage shelves is completely freestanding and self – supporting. It sits on the container floor, eliminating the need to drill holes or weld brackets to the container structure, which preserves the container’s wind and watertight integrity.<\/p>\n Each tier\/shelf level has a Uniformly Distributed Load (UDL) capacity of up to 640 kg, giving each individual 3 – tier bay a total weight capacity of 1,920 kg.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Maximize floor space and organize your store with our Adjustable Heavy – Duty 3 – Tier Shipping Container Racking (5 Bay System)<\/b>.
