Secure Expanded Metal Storage: Protect & Preserve Your Inventory
Expanded metal offers a robust and versatile storage solution when housed within a well-managed warehouse facility. Its inherent strength and durability make it exceptionally well-suited for long-term storage, minimizing the risk of damage during handling and stacking. Warehouse storage provides a secure and organized environment, allowing for efficient inventory management and easy retrieval of specific gauges and mesh sizes. Proper stacking techniques are crucial, utilizing support beams and interlocks to maintain the metal's integrity and prevent deformation. Consider utilizing pallet racking systems or gravity racking to maximize space and ensure consistent load distribution. Regular inspections of the stored expanded metal are recommended to identify any potential issues early on. A warehouse’s stable environment, with consistent airflow and protection from direct sunlight, is ideal for preserving the product's shape and minimizing potential surface corrosion, especially important for galvanized or coated varieties. Strategic placement and organized storage within the warehouse ultimately ensures long-term availability and reduces the risk of damage during access and retrieval.
Storage Size/Dimensions: Minimum 200 sq ft (10ft x 20ft) area is recommended. Height clearance: 12 feet to accommodate large rolls or sheets. A dedicated storage area of 15ft x 15ft is ideal for a smaller operation.
Storage Conditions: The storage area must be dry and well-ventilated. Avoid direct sunlight exposure. The floor should be level and clean to prevent damage to the expanded metal.
Special Handling: Expanded metal sheets are relatively durable but can be prone to scratching or denting if improperly handled. Pallet wrapping or protective sheeting is recommended for individual rolls or sheets. Consider using corner protectors during handling.
Stacking/Shelving: Pallet racking is a suitable option, allowing for efficient storage of multiple rolls. Shelving units with adjustable height levels can be utilized for smaller sizes. Max stack height of 5 feet is advised.
Access Requirements: A standard 12ft x 10ft loading dock is sufficient for truck access. The warehouse door should be a minimum of 10ft wide for easy maneuverability. A clearance of 8ft is needed at the loading dock for forklift operation. Ensure adequate aisle space of 8ft between storage locations.
