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.
