Two-Tier Shelving

Two Tier Shelving is a cost effective solution that utilises all of the available building headroom without the need for a separate structural mezzanine floor. 2 Tier shelving is best described as extra-tall shelving with a raised aisle that is suspended to create a walkway accessed by a staircase.

The photograph above shows a typical application where both the ground and upper floors contain racking that is used for storing retail products. Heavy duty chipboard flooring layed in between the shelving bays combined with a robust staircase provide a very secure storage structure that is ideal for picking applications.

The adjustability of the shelving is still retained within a two-tier system like this thanks to the modular Trimline components used, each shelf can be adjusted vertically every 25mm which helps to create specific shelving areas to suit the stock being stored.

Space within a retail stockroom is usually very limited but still has to provide storage for many different product types whilst holding enough stock to supply demand. When there is sufficient headroom available, Two-Tier mezzanine shelving is the perfect solution for retailers providing maximum storage capacity whilst retaining easy access for staff members.

A choice of flooring types are available for 2-tier shelving to suit different requirements, retail stockrooms often take advantage of our wire mesh panels that can improve the effectiveness of sprinkler systems during the breakout of fire.

Raised aisle shelving does not usually affect the building's rateable value but does require building regulations approval and we can include this (if required) as part of the project.
