Modular drawer for racking ” Metalsistem”
This is an original Metalsistem accessory that allows you to turn your standard open rack into a top-class closed storage system. The drawers are an indispensable solution for garages, workshops, offices or home garages where small tools, fasteners, documents or personal items need to be kept neat and clean. Drawer units can be easily integrated into existing frames without any screws, just like simple shelves.
IMPORTANT: These high-quality modular drawers are made and assembled to special order, with an estimated delivery time of up to 4 weeks.
Efficient operating principle
- Telescopic rails: the high quality rail mechanism ensures smooth and quiet drawer making, even under heavy loads.
- Fully integrated: the drawers are fitted directly into the rack perforations (every 33 mm), so you can create the wardrobe of your dreams yourself: leave the bottom shelves open for large items, and build drawers at eye level for small items.
- Corrosion protection: like all Super 1/2/3 elements, the drawers are made of solid steel, galvanised using Sendzimir technology and coated with a clear organic primer. This protects them against rust and scratching.

Planning Guide
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.
