Mobile High-Bay Storage Systems

Up to 35 feet (10.7 meters) high, with up to 30 tiers of shelves, standard XTend systems can achieve storage space densities averaging far greater than static high-bay storage systems.

Made specifically for archival storage, rugged box-formed shelves of heavy-gauge cold-rolled steel are sized to optimize storage density and are easily adjustable in 1-1/64” (26mm) increments.

The Photo Sweep system stops carriage motion instantly when a person or object is detected. Aisle-entry sensors automatically stop or prevent carriage movement when a person enters an aisle. And an anti-tip system keeps users and materials safe during seismic events.

Safely imbedded in your concrete floor, integrated guidance wires ensure straight, safe travel for high-lift order picker vehicles in narrow XTend system aisles. Picker vehicles require no steering when retrieving items, for maximum efficiency and operator productivity.

Precision machined of solid steel, 6” (152 mm) diameter load and drive wheels roll more easily than smaller wheels and prevent premature wear.

Rigid, heavy-gauge, welded-steel, uniframe wheel housings keep wheels aligned to prevent binding. DC motors move carriages three inches (76 mm) per second, with soft starts and stop that eliminate jarring and jostling of stored materials.

Flush mounted in your facility’s floor, solid, structurally rigid rails eliminate the need for a super-flat floor. They reduce rail deflection and limit lateral movement to maintain rail alignment, while eliminating tripping hazards and simplifying cleaning.

Three simple buttons – Move Left, Move Right and Stop – control all XTend system movement, with an open aisle indicator light to show the system’s status. An infrared remote option maximizes user convenience.

An XTend Mobile High-Bay Storage System gives you the same storage capacity as a static high-bay system in less space- or more capacity in the same space.

Fitting easily in a smaller building envelope and footprint than other off-site storage options, the XTend system lowers your construction costs substantially. With the lowest life-cycle ownership costs of any other option, XTend systems significantly reduce your operating and energy expenses, too.

With its smaller building footprint, the XTend system conserves both green space and energy.

Designed with comprehensive planning based on our vast experience with storage solutions, XTend systems are specifically tailored by our proven team of professional consultants to meet the unique storage and facility needs of your organization.

From wire-guided pickers for safe, automated retrieval, to proven patented safety technology and systems, to construction that exceeds the most stringent NARA* fire suppression standards, the XTend system is designed and built to protect your personnel and stored materials.

Rigorously tested through 30,000 operating cycles, XTend systems are built with a durability and reliability that can only result from 35 years of proven designs and experience with compact storage and heavy-duty industrial storage systems.
