Additional shelf Metalsistem Super 1-2-3
This is an original kit to increase the number of storage floors of your existing rack. „Metalsistem's design standards in Lithuania have remained unchanged for 20 years, making this shelf ideal for both newly purchased frames and frames built a decade ago. It is the most efficient way to optimise your warehouse - make the most of the available vertical space without investing in new structures.
IMPORTANT: This shelf is designed for installation in existing Metalsistem Super 1/2/3 side frames. Since the system is modular, you can add a new level at any rack height without any screws or special tools.
Efficient operating principle
- Patented joint: the slats are fixed into the frame perforations by a unique anchoring method that ensures structural rigidity and maximum safety.
- Certified steel: only 3.1 certified, high strength structural steel (S400) complying with the strict EN10204 standards is used.
- Durable coating: the steel is galvanised on both sides using the Sendzimir process, which protects the shelves from corrosion and mechanical damage, even in wet or unheated rooms.

Planning Guide
When planning the location of the racking in the room, please refer to the following standard dimensions for the Storsistem range:
Assembly instructions:
Heights of the risers (frames):
The most popular heights range from 2000 mm to 3000 mm, mostly used in industrial warehouses and archives:
- 1850 mm (Standard for garage, office or home storage)
- 2000 mm
- 2500 mm (Most popular warehouse height in Lithuania)
- 3000 mm (For maximum storage volume utilisation)
Shelf Depths
„The depth of the Metalsistem is selected according to the dimensions of the goods or plastic boxes to be stored:
- 320 mm (Ideal for document archives and small details)
- 400 mm
- 500 mm (Universal choice for commercial and domestic use)
- 600 mm (Industry standard for logistics warehouses)
- 700 mm | 800 mm (for bulky goods)
Shelf lengths (Section width)
The length of the shelf indicates the net usable area between the two stands:
- 600 mm | 900 mm | 1050 mm
- 1200 mm (The most popular choice on the market)
- 1350 mm | 1500 mm | 1650mm | 1800 mm
Shelf adjustment step:
- Every 33 mm (perforation at the full height of the stand).
Accurate Queue Length Calculation
IMPORTANT: Shelving frames have their own thickness, so the total length of the row is always greater than the sum of the shelves themselves.
- The Golden Rule: Add 90 mm to the total length of the shelves.
- Formula: Total row length = (Sum of all shelf lengths) + 90 mm
- Example: joining 3 sections of 1200 mm each:
- Construction: 3600 mm + 90 mm (thickness of all frames).
- Final result: you need 3690 mm of free floor space.
Tip: If you are installing the racking in a recess or between walls, always leave an additional tolerance of 10-20 mm to ensure that the structure fits easily even if the walls are uneven.
Important Information for the Buyer
Basic vs Plug-in module:
Each row must start from the Base Module (2 stands). All other sections are pluggable (1 rack) and connect to the previous structure, thus saving space and reducing cost.
