Running out of space in your current facility? Feeling like you don’t have enough room for what makes your business, your business? Looking to upgrade your space but the funds aren’t there? We are in business to help with these problems.  High density storage is a wonderful solution. Compact shelving may be your answer.

High-Density Storage is the smart choice if you want to get the most out of your storage space. With up to 50% more efficient space utilization than regular static shelving, you’ll be able to reduce your storage footprint and gain flexibility like never before! Our mobile shelves are easily adjustable and repositionable, making them ideal for businesses that need a quick solution to their storage needs.

Forget costly expansion – powered high-density mobile shelving by Spacesaver is a much smarter way of compacting your existing space without breaking the bank. With our system, all those wasted aisles between stationary shelves will be gone in no time! You can double your storage capacity while keeping the same amount of floor space – or uncover new areas that could bring additional profits for your business.

When you don’t have the funds to expand your shelf space, it can quickly get overcrowded and unstructured. This can be a recipe for disaster – decreased productivity, bad vibes, potential risks for staff members and of course, an impact on your bottom line.
High density mobile storage is here to help! By connecting shelves or cupboards onto a carriage and rail system, we can reduce the amount of fixed aisles in your space and make room for other activities that will increase profits. So with this clever concept you can either store more items in the same footprint or make use of half that space for something else entirely.

When you choose Spacesaver’s powered high-density storage shelving, you’ll benefit from its host of operational modes, safety features and more. Check out our different types of mobile shelving below – it’s easier than ever to maximize efficiency with minimal effort!

Eliminate every aisle in the compact mobile system except for one

Why take a look at mobile shelving? well, that’s answer’s simple, too—you can only do so much with static shelving before you run out of space, especially if you’re needing to store more in an existing footprint. Compact mobile shelving allows you to place your current inventory in a fraction of your current space, which gives you the opportunity to plan for future inventory or do something else with the space you’ve saved.

Compact Mobile Shelving Solutions in Action:

High-Density Shelving Types

In these fast-moving times, organizations and businesses have to think on their feet to maximize space efficiency. Whether it’s a bustling office, a bookish library, an industrial warehouse or an ever-growing healthcare facility, storage solutions are key for smooth operation. That’s where high-density mobile shelving comes in with a real game changer: the ability to store more while taking up less room!

Unlike classic static shelving, this dynamic design is like having shelves on wheels – just slide apart whichever unit you need access to and voila! With no wasted aisle space, up to 50% more storage capacity can be achieved compared with traditional systems. It really makes life easier by keeping things organized and neatly stored away!

Depending on your needs and bulk of what is being stored, we offer four different types of powered high-density shelving options:

Standard

Depending on your needs and bulk of what is being stored, we offer four different types of powered high-density shelving options:

Standard compact mobile storage system
Wheelhouse low-profile compact mobile storage system

Low-Profile

The low-profile mobile storage system is ideal for when relocating or expanding is in your future. It is considered the “little-brother” to standard mobile shelving, creating a more cost-effective solution for compacting storage space.

Heavy-Duty

A solution for storing bulky or large items without facility expansion or renovation, ActivRAC heavy-duty mobile system. The heavy-duty mobile storage systems can hold 7,000 – 30,000 pounds per carriage.

Warehouse shelving for box storage on shelving
Mobile High-bay storage system for Off-site storage

Archival

If your collection of books and historical records is growing at a rapid pace, our High-Bay Shelving System is the right solution for you. The system expands from the floor to the ceiling to take advantage of every inch of your space.

Modes of Operation for Compact Mobile Systems

Depending on your needs, we offer three modes of operation for optimum ease of use, security, safety, and accessibility: manual, mechanical-assist, and powered controls.

Manual

Manual

The cost effective alternative to mechanical-assist controls. Pulling a handle moves the carriage from side to side. This is ideal for smaller mobile storage systems with lighter loads.

Mechanical Assist

Mechanical Assist

The mobile high-density shelving units are moved by simply turning an ergonomically-designed three-spoke rotating handle. This handle allows users to move carriage weights of 4,000 – 10,000 lbs. with only one pound of effort.

Powered

Powered

Provides immediate access to stored goods in the powered high-density shelving units with a simple push of a button. Options include standard push-button control and a variety of optional controls including infrared capable control and secure touchpad aisle access control.

For our powered high-density shelving, we also offer our Touch Technology Control, which offers an interactive and dynamic LCD touchscreen with an intuitive menu and tutorials. The visual features of Touch Technology Control make it easier than ever before to store and access the items you need in a safe and extremely secure way.

Safety Features

When it comes to high-density mobile shelving, safety is our main concern—after all, we want you to feel comfortable using the system. Based on your needs, we offer the ability to close and lock your system when not in use, and depending on the type, systems can be programmed for controlled access to specific aisles, etc. Here are a few more of our many safety features.

Safety Sweeps

Safety sweeps are included in every mobile system, and every aisle is required to have one floor sweep. We have two options available:

  • Photo Sweep (used with powered systems): An infrared light beam, unaffected by sunlight or ambient light extremes, projected the length of the carriage at its base stops system movement when broken by a person’s foot or other object.
  • Safety Sweep (used with mechanical assist systems): Provides full aisle protection for people and objects in the open aisles by automatically stopping carriage movement upon contact with a barrier.

Aisle-Entry Sensor

If a person enters a closing aisle, cross-aisle sensors mounted 20 inches up from the carriage base stop the system from moving (for powered systems only).

Zero Force Sensor

By projecting multiple infrared photoelectric beams across an open aisle the full length of the carriage, the Zero Force Sensor (ZFS) system detects a person’s entry into a moving aisle or presence in an open aisle and automatically locks down carriage movement (for powered systems only).
