Multi Tier Shelving

Just like regular industrial shelving, multi tier shelving is designed to maximise the storage space within your facility. Instead of being situated on just one level, however, multi tier shelving works across a number of levels with the first and each subsequent floor being supported by a mezzanine sitting on the floor below. Robust and superbly engineered, the higher levels are accessed by staircases and are ideal for boosting the storage density of your warehouse.

Thanks to our free in-house design service, we can tailor a multi tier system to suit the unique specification of both your business and your unit, adding vast amounts of additional storage in space that was previously unavailable.

Absolutely. By its very nature, even the most heavy duty industrial shelving can be adjusted, added to, or even completely dismantled by a firm such as Alternative Storage Systems. With that complete, our SEIRS approved installation team can then transport your existing shelving system to your new location, setting it back up again in the most optimal layout for your facility.

100%. Unlike many industrial storage specialists, we don’t just supply shelving, pallet racking or mezzanine systems. Instead, our time-served, SEIRS approved installation teams will also install it for you as well. By choosing Alternative Storage Systems, you’re not only getting the benefit of the equipment warranty, but we’ll also guarantee the quality of our installation service, too.

What’s more, our in-house design team will also design a storage solution to suit the specific requirements of your business and warehouse, completely free of charge.

We certainly can. Whilst brand new shelving is a great choice for many, for those with a limited budget (or who simply don’t need or can’t justify the cost) second hand industrial shelving is 100% the way forward! By choosing pre owned shelving from Alternative Storage Systems, you’re gaining the same heavy duty shelving at a fraction of the price, ready for almost immediate delivery and installation by our SEIRS approved installation team.

If you’re interested in buying second hand short span, long span, or multi tier shelving, please get in touch.

We certainly do. All industrial shelving, pallet racking and mezzanine floor sales come complete with our free, in-house design service.

Backed up by more than 30 years of industrial storage experience, we’ll use AutoCAD to produce precise, detailed, and easy-to-understand plans (backed up by common sense, jargon-free advice) that’ll help you get the most out of your warehouse.

Yes! From Devon to Inverness and everywhere in between, we travel throughout the UK, designing, supplying, and installing high quality storage systems to warehouses, commercial units, retail premises and more. Whether you need industrial shelving, pallet racking, or mezzanine floors, we offer a truly nationwide service.

Easy… we’ll tell you! With more than three decades of industry experience, our time-served experts are perfectly placed to advise on the most appropriate solution for your warehouse. From mezzanines and pallet racking to shelving and beyond, they’ll take the time to get to know you, your facility and your challenges, carrying out a detailed on-site assessment before making their professional recommendations. That’ll include the type of storage system you need, and the amount of storage (e.g. the storage density or pallet count etc.) your facility can take.

Absolutely. As a family business built on family values, we’re focused on value and customer service rather than our bottom line. We love working with companies with a lower budget – or those who simply don’t see the need to invest in brand new equipment – and offer a range of great value and pre-owned shelving, pallet racking and even mezzanine floors to suit almost all budgets.

Of course. Almost every day we speak with organisations who’ve either outgrown their existing shelving system, have been sold the wrong type of shelving, or are struggling with a shelving layout that simply doesn’t work. Most of the time we’re able to simply reconfigure what’s there but, if additional shelving is needed, we can supply either new or pre-owned shelving to create your ideal layout.

If the shelving you have simply isn’t suitable at all, however, we’ll do our best to part exchange it for some new or high quality second hand equipment in order to keep your costs down.

The answer to this question depends in part upon how much additional storage space you need, and what you’re looking to do with all of that extra space.

If your products are non-palletised and you’re already using all of your available floorspace for shelving, either a multi-tier shelving system or a mezzanine floor (with additional shelving on top) could be the way forward. If you keep all of your products on pallets, however, then either a narrow aisle or a drive in / drive through pallet racking system might be ideal.

Whatever storage challenge you’re facing, we’re here to help. With over 30 years of industrial storage experience, we’ll be able to assess your unit and your requirements before recommending the best value and most appropriate solution for your business.

Quickly! We understand that, for our clients, time is money. And lost time and productivity means both revenue and profit are taking a hit. Whilst we’re able to provide brand new storage systems with a modest lead time, unlike most firms we almost always hold a huge stock of pallet racking, industrial shelving and even mezzanine floors. Not only do these offer exceptional value for money, they’re also available almost immediately.

Yes, it is, although that could depend upon a number of different factors. Having worked in industrial storage for more than 30 years, we’re experts in installing shelving, racking and mezzanines with minimal or even no drop in productivity. Our ability to do this will depend upon the nature of your work, the size and layout of your facility, your working hours and so on.

If this is a concern to you, simply get in touch. A member of our installation team will be on hand to help.

Yes, you can. Almost all industrial shelving or pallet racking can be dismantled, transported, and installed in your new facility.

At Alternative Storage Systems, we offer a dedicated warehouse relocation service, with all work being carried out by our SEIRS approved installation teams.

Yes, absolutely. There are a number of options here, depending upon the nature of your inventory, your target storage density or pallet count, the height of your warehouse and more!

If you stock non-palletised items then industrial shelving could be perfect thanks to its ability to be configured into any number of of layouts.

If you hold palletised items, however, we can design and supply a bespoke pallet racking system specifically designed around your unit’s unique layout.

If you have limited floor space but need to add additional storage or office/display space, it may be possible to install a mezzanine floor that will sit directly above your ground floor, and all without disrupting your existing operations. No matter how unusual your unit’s floorplan, we can help you get the most out of it.
