Mobile Storage
Mobile storage systems feature storage units mounted on wheeled carriages that run on tracks in the floor. Rather than having to allow for an access-width aisle between each storage unit, mobile systems create the aisle wherever the operator wants access.
The carriages are compacted to create the accessible aisle by one of three methods: manually, mechanical assist or using powered push-button controls. By far the easiest to operate and, therefore, the most accessible systems are powered. In addition, powered systems offer programming flexibility and additional safety features which will be described later in this report. By compacting the storage units, the space saving for a building owner/professional is significant. Switching from stationary storage to high-density mobile storage reduces the amount of floor space required by 50 percent or more. This allows more storage to be located in smaller areas and/or near the workstations where they are needed, thus reducing the amount of travel required for access.
A high-density mobile system can halve the amount of space needed for storage, and still allow 100% accessibility. Available in a wide variety of paint finishes, our mobile storage systems include the following types:
