All your Shelving Needs Are Here

If you are looking for shelving ideas for the home, then you are in the right place. It doesn’t matter which room you are thinking of fitting shelves in, there is something here for every location, including the garage and shed so it’s just a case of you deciding what you need, placing your order and that’s it, the shelving units will be dispatched to your address quickly and securely.

If you have a potting shed in the garden, why not think about replacing that old shelving with new units which will make your work much easier because you will be able to see clearly all the tools and other bits and pieces you need for the garden.

The same applies if you are running a business and you need to replace the shelves in your warehouse or retail outlet. There is a wide range of shelving solutions to suit just about every need, from heavy duty shelves and racks which are able to take the strain of heavy equipment which has to be stored, right down to lightweight shelves and racks on which you can store documents and books. Choosing the right units is important if you want the warehouse to run efficiently.

Your staff have to be able to easily access the items stored, so bear this in mind when you are making your choice. The key to an efficient warehouse is order, so if you start right at the beginning by installing easy to reach shelving and racking systems, you are heading in the right direction to making your business more efficient.

Kids Room Shelving Solutions

If you have children you’ll be well aware that their toys, books and comics can take over the house, especially when they have finished playing with them. How many times have you walked into the living room and seen the carpet hidden beneath what appears to be hundreds of toys and other playthings, and began the task of putting them away?

If you don’t have much space in the house this can present a problem, but thanks to some great shelving and racking and storage ideas you can make this much easier. On the other hand if you have a spare room available, then why not think about turning it into a playroom for the kids? This will be their own space, and with a bit of luck they will realise that they have to keep it tidy.

Fitting shelving and storage in the kids room will encourage them to play there, rather than taking over the whole house with their toys, and when you look at the great range of shelving and storage trunks available today there is sure to be something which will be perfect for your home.

Shelving of this type is absolutely essential if you are working from home as a child minder where you may have four or more children in your home every day. The children in your charge will need something to keep them busy during the eight hours or more they are with you, so you will have to make sure that you have the right shelving to accommodate all the toys, books and DVDs.

Storage Racks Keep your Garage Ordered

It’s that time of year when many of us decide we are going to give the garage a clear out. It’s a job we’ve been putting off for a long time, perhaps years, so the prospect of tidying it up is not a pleasant one. It’s a strange thing isn’t it, the way we use our garages in the UK.

We leave a car worth thousands of pounds on the driveway, and fill up the place where it is supposed to be parked with all those bits and pieces which we know we aren’t going to use again but are loathe to throw away. If this sounds familiar we can’t help you with the clearing up job, but when it comes to putting the place in order once you have got rid of the junk you don‘t need – allowing you to actually get in and out of the garage without tripping over boxes and electrical cables – then you are in the right place to find the best racking and storage solutions for the garage and other rooms in your home.

The type of storage racks and garage racking you will need will depend on what you have to be packed away. If you have a lot of gardening equipment and other heavy tools, then robust metal racking is the best choice.

On the other hand, if you are just looking to store boxes full of documents and other light materials, you may be able to use lighter storage racks made from a range of durable plastic materials. We stock a vast range of heavy duty shelves which could be ideal for this.
