Frequently Asked Questions

Which guide should I read first?

If you are buying for a storeroom, start with how to measure your storeroom, then the best storage rack for your storeroom or bomb shelter. Together they cover almost every decision you need to make.

What is the difference between boltless and bolted racking?

Boltless racks lock together by hand and have no nuts to rust or work loose; bolted racks need tools and time, and the fasteners are usually the first thing to corrode in Singapore humidity. Our guide to boltless rack systems sets out the full comparison.

How much weight can a rack shelf actually take?

It depends on the rack and on how the load is spread — a figure only means anything when the weight is evenly distributed. Read rack SWL explained for what the number means in practice, and heavy duty racking for the warehouse end of the range.

Can I collect the rack myself instead of paying for delivery?

Yes. Self collection explains what fits in a car and how the packs are bundled. Otherwise delivery is a flat S$40 island-wide within 3 working days — see the delivery policy.

Do you have guidance on warehouse rack safety?

Yes — MOM guidance on the safe use of storage racks covers what employers are expected to do, and rack drop pins covers the single fitting most often left out.
