Capabilities

4‑Post FreeSpan™ Shelving

Flexible. Dependable. Built for Modern Storage.

4‑Post FreeSpan™ Shelving is a versatile, high‑performance storage solution engineered to adapt to evolving space and workflow requirements. Built on the proven foundation of traditional 4‑post shelving, FreeSpan™ combines tool‑free adjustability, high load capacity, and extensive configuration options—making it ideal for commercial, industrial, institutional, and high‑density storage environments.

Whether specified for new construction or retrofitted into existing systems, FreeSpan™ delivers long‑term flexibility, strength, and clean aesthetics.

Key Features & Benefits

Tool‑Free Adjustability

Patent‑pending FreeSpan™ shelf clips allow shelves to be adjusted without tools in ¾‑inch or 1½‑inch increments, enabling fast reconfiguration as storage needs change. Height reference notches on uprights simplify layout and installation.

Benefit: Faster installation, easier reconfiguration, and reduced labor costs.

High Load Capacity, Engineered for Safety

FreeSpan™ shelves support 305+ lbs per shelf as standard and up to 455+ lbs per shelf with optional shelf stiffeners. The system is load‑tested to a 2× safety factor and meets ANSI MH28.1‑2024a standards.

Benefit: Confidence in performance for demanding storage applications.

Highly Configurable System Design

Choose from open, closed, or case‑type uprights in single‑face, double‑face, or back‑to‑back configurations. Shelves are available in plain, slotted, or perforated styles, with multiple widths, depths, and heights—including custom sizing.

Benefit: Precise specification for virtually any space or use case.

Backward Compatibility

FreeSpan™ is fully compatible with existing Spacesaver 4‑Post Shelving systems and integrates seamlessly into High‑Density Mobile and Flexible Shelving solutions.

Benefit: Protects prior investments and simplifies upgrades or expansions.

Code‑Friendly and Fire‑Conscious Options

Perforated steel shelves provide 51% open area to support fire suppression, airflow, and ventilation, helping meet NFPA requirements where applicable.

Benefit: Simplifies compliance in regulated environments.

Clean Aesthetics for Public‑Facing Spaces

Available in a wide range of powder coat colors and optional wood, laminate, acrylic, or glass end panels, FreeSpan™ shelving balances durability with design intent.

Benefit: Suitable for front‑of‑house, archival, or design‑sensitive applications.

These features support efficient design development, predictable installation, and long‑term adaptability.

Ideal Applications

  • Commercial and industrial storage
  • Healthcare, education, and government facilities
  • Archives, records management, and libraries
  • Warehouses, back‑of‑house, and high‑density environments
