FAQs
Is assembly difficult?
No, the units are designed for boltless, tool-free assembly, making it quick and straightforward.
What is the weight capacity per shelf?
Each shelf has a maximum weight capacity of 175kg.
Can the units be used separately?
Yes, the set includes two independent units that can be used in different locations or configurations.
What are the assembled dimensions?
The assembled dimensions for one unit are 180cm (height) x 90cm (width) x 40cm (depth).
Can these units be used outdoors?
While the galvanised finish offers some protection, these units are best suited for indoor use in garages, workshops, or utility rooms to prevent long-term exposure to elements.
Do the plastic feet provide non-slip properties?
The plastic feet are primarily for floor protection. For increased stability on very smooth surfaces, consider adding anti-slip mats beneath them.
Can I buy additional shelves for this unit?
Additional shelves are typically sold separately or as part of different configurations. Please check with your retailer for availability.
Troubleshooting
Unit feels unstable
Ensure all beams are fully inserted and locked into the uprights. Verify that the unit is on a level surface and that the plastic feet are correctly attached. For maximum stability, place heavier items on lower shelves.
Parts do not fit together
Double-check that you are using the correct parts for the step. Ensure there is no debris in the connection points. If damage is suspected, contact the manufacturer.
Shelf sagging under load
Confirm that the load does not exceed the 175kg per shelf capacity. Redistribute weight evenly across the shelf and ensure the shelf is properly seated on the support beams.
