The unit boasts a boltless rivet locking system, enabling easy tool-free assembly in minutes, eliminating the need for screws or bolts. The anti mould MDF shelves resist moisture absorption, making it a practical choice for damp environments like garages and sheds where tools and supplies are stored. Adjustable shelf heights allow you to tailor the layout to suit different item sizes, maximising storage space effectively.

Its industrial strength design ensures durability, while the galvanised finish offers both style and protection. The dimensions are 70 x 30 x 150cm, providing ample space for your storage needs.
Please note that whilst each shelf supports up to 175kg when loaded evenly, slight flexing may occur under maximum load. Ensure items are distributed appropriately across the shelves for optimal stability and performance.
