Metal Shelving

We've installed Spacesaver metal shelving in hundreds of locations in the San Francisco Bay Area and around Northern California. From libraries and museums to police departments and factories, Systems and Space can help any facility save space, save time, and improve security and accountability.
Whether you’re looking for 4-post or case-type shelving, cantilever, wide span, or wire shelving, we can serve your needs. Our metal shelving units are easy to install, reconfigure and expand to improve any work environment. Made from heavy-duty steel and finished with durable powdered coat paint, every piece is built to last. Custom end panels are also available to integrate with your facility’s interior design.

Some previously designed custom end panels include finished wood and images on acrylic.

4-POST SHELVING THAT OFFERS MORE THAN ORDINARY METAL SHELVING
Create and alternate how and what you store with Spacesaver’s 4-post shelving. Universally slotted shelving units allow for the attachment of file dividers, bin dividers, and divider rods.

You can stack boxes, organize color-coded files with dividers, and store other materials with compartmented bin dividers all on the same shelving unit.

FRAME-MOUNTED DOORS FOR 4-POST SHELVING
Spacesaver’s frame-mounted doors can be utilized in a variety of applications to meet a variety of storage needs. Three door types—single-wall, double-wall, and window—provide distinct features and options that can be installed on Spacesaver’s 4-Post and Case-type shelving and welded cabinets. The same shelving systems, when used in conjunction with frame-mounted doors, create flexible, adaptable cabinets that can be used for both static shelving applications or with mobile shelving systems.

4-Post and Case-Type Shelving in Use

California Academy of Sciences, Marin County

Established in 1853, the California Academy of Sciences houses one of the world’s premier natural history museums. Its collections required storage that would meet several requirements: it had to protect the specimens; it had to provide convenient access to researchers; and the storage had to be durable, maintaining its integrity over decades of repeated use. We designed compact mobile storage solutions with 4-post shelving to accommodate the special challenges posed by glass jars and large steel trunks containing specimens preserved in liquid.
