TS Longspan Shelving Starter Bays: Heavy-Duty Racking Built for the Toughest Loads

When ordinary shelving simply cannot cope with bulky, heavy or high-volume stock, TS Longspan Shelving Starter Bays step up to deliver uncompromising performance. Designed and manufactured to the highest standards, these heavy-duty steel racking systems combine exceptional load capacity with rock-solid stability, giving your warehouse or storeroom the organised, efficient storage solution it deserves. Perfect for industrial, automotive, manufacturing and commercial environments where reliability is non-negotiable.

Unrivalled Structural Strength and Rigidity

At the heart of every TS Longspan bay is the unique claw-to-upright connection paired with heavy-duty “Z” profile beams. This proven engineering creates incredible torsional rigidity and prevents any beam spreading or rotation, even under maximum loads. Twin-slot uprights (60 × 50 mm profile) allow precise shelf height adjustments at close intervals, while reinforced deck supports come as standard on every level. The result? Chipboard, solid steel or wire mesh decks that perform to the full beam capacity without compromise.

Exceptional Load Capacities for Demanding Applications

Each shelf level safely supports up to 950 kg uniformly distributed load (UDL), with a complete bay rated for an impressive 3,900 kg. Whether you’re storing heavy cartons, machinery parts, tyres, dies, jigs or bulk materials, these starter bays handle the most rigorous demands safely and securely. No more worrying about sagging shelves, overloaded uprights or safety risks — TS Longspan gives you total peace of mind and maximum storage density.

Versatile, Scalable and Future-Proof Design

TS Longspan Shelving Starter Bays are the perfect foundation for any storage run. Each starter bay includes two upright frames, beams and decking, ready to stand alone or connect seamlessly with extension bays as your needs grow. Available in a wide range of heights (1984–4016 mm), widths (1229–2754 mm) and depths (471–1233 mm), the system adapts effortlessly to your space and stock profile. Quick mallet assembly means minimal downtime, while the modular design lets you reconfigure or expand without costly replacements.
