Description · Modular Storage Shelves U-Shaped 2 Bays

These U-shaped modular shelves in matte black feature a 2-bay design measuring 180x90x40 cm per bay to optimise corner space in Irish garages and workshops. Built with 5 height-adjustable shelf levels per bay, this manual hand-loading unit delivers a total capacity of 875 kg per module with a 175 kg load capacity per level. Designed for swift, hassle-free setup without tools, the boltless assembly system provides a durable, professional storage framework for organising boxed stock, tools, and heavy equipment efficiently across industrial stockrooms or home storerooms.

Designed with 5 adjustable tiers per bay, this U-shaped configuration provides outstanding vertical organisation for busy commercial premises across Ireland. Each individual tier safely handles up to 175 kg of evenly distributed load, making these modular shelves ideal for storing heavy toolboxes, hardware bins, and bulky supplies. Having 875 kg capacity per bay ensures your floor space stays clear while materials remain fully organised, enabling staff to access essential equipment instantly without straining structural stability during daily operations.

Standing at 180 cm high with a 90 cm width and 40 cm depth per bay, these flexible modular shelves fit neatly into restricted floor plans. The generous 40 cm depth easily accommodates archive boxes, heavy-duty plastic containers, hand tools, and small fluid drums. Because every tier can be shifted up or down along the uprights, staff can quickly alter tier spacing to house tall merchandise or compact inventory, ensuring every centimetre of overhead space is fully utilised.

Engineered from premium steel, the frame consists of sturdy uprights, robust beams, and solid metal shelf plates that interlock smoothly. The boltless assembly mechanism allows rapid installation without needing screws or specialized hand tools. Setting up these modular shelves is straightforward, enabling rapid deployment in fast-moving commercial environments across Ireland. The rigid interlocking beam design maintains solid alignment across both bays, creating a stable platform capable of handling constant hand-loading without structural flexing.

Finished in a sleek matte black coating, this unit delivers a clean, professional aesthetic while remaining exceptionally easy to wipe clean. For setups requiring alternative specs, the Urban series offers matching modular shelves with a classic galvanised finish or a narrower 30 cm depth option. This versatile choice of finishes and dimensions allows company managers to maintain uniform storage configurations across front-of-house areas, trade counters, and backroom storage zones throughout the premises.

Selecting this U-shaped matte black configuration is the ultimate decision for active workshops, retail stockrooms, and commercial warehouses demanding extra depth. Unlike narrower 30 cm models, the deeper 40 cm shelf profiles carry larger crates effortlessly, while the dark finish offers a modern appearance suited for visible backrooms. Incorporating these heavy-duty modular shelves ensures superior space optimization, guaranteeing that fast-moving stock and essential tools remain structured, secure, and ready for immediate retrieval.

Applicable regulations in Ireland · Modular Storage Shelves U-Shaped 2 Bays · 180x90x40 cm · Matte Black

Domestic use (garage, storage room)

In Ireland, a shelving unit fitted in the garage, attic or utility room of a private home is not governed by workplace safety law: the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 and the General Application Regulations 2007 bind employers, not householders. What does apply is general product safety. Regulation (EU) 2023/988 (GPSR), applicable since 13 December 2024, requires that only safe products be placed on the market (art. 5) and that a distance-selling offer clearly shows the manufacturer's name, postal and electronic address and any safety warnings (art. 19); in Ireland it is enforced by the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission under S.I. No. 726/2024, which also requires that this information, and the safety information supplied with the product, be in English (Reg. 5).. The Consumer Rights Act 2022 adds that goods must come with the installation instructions a consumer may reasonably expect (s. 18) and that an incorrect installation due to shortcomings in those instructions is a lack of conformity (s. 19). Our advice: anchor the unit to the wall against tipping and never exceed the stated maximum load per shelf.
