Safe Knob & Tube Storage: Preserve Your History.
Storing Knob and Tube Wiring in a warehouse environment offers a secure and cost-effective solution for businesses managing electrical components. The inherent robustness of Knob and Tube wiring makes it exceptionally well-suited for long-term storage, minimizing degradation when handled correctly. Warehouse facilities provide a stable, dry environment, crucial for preserving the integrity of these older wiring systems. Proper stacking, utilizing pallets for support, and ensuring the wiring is protected from direct sunlight and physical impact are essential best practices. Warehouses’ inherent structural stability – often reinforced concrete – offers a superior foundation compared to less rigid storage options. Furthermore, a warehouse’s organized layout facilitates easy inventory management and rapid retrieval, a significant advantage for businesses needing to access this material quickly. The large, open spaces within a warehouse allow for efficient handling and safeguarding against damage. This storage method represents a practical and economical solution for preserving valuable electrical components. Implementing clear labeling and tracking systems further enhances the security and traceability of your Knob and Tube inventory.
Storage Size/Dimensions: Minimum 150 square feet, 15ft x 10ft area, Height clearance: 10 feet. Allow for a 3ft walkway around each pallet.
Storage Conditions: Dry storage is required. The area should be well-ventilated to prevent dust accumulation. Avoid direct sunlight. The floor should be a smooth, durable surface, suitable for pallet movement.
Special Handling: Knob and tube wiring is considered a fragile item. Items should be stored on pallets with adequate padding (minimum 2 inches of foam or cardboard) to prevent damage from impacts. Protect against physical contact during handling. Avoid dropping or dragging materials.
Stacking/Shelving: Pallet storage is recommended. Shelving is optional but should be sturdy and capable of supporting at least 500 lbs per shelf. Max stack height: 4 pallets. Ensure shelving units are secured to the floor.
Access Requirements: Loading dock with a 12ft wide x 12ft deep bay door is required. Door width: 10 feet. Clearance space of 6 feet around each pallet for forklift access. A secondary access door, 6ft wide x 8ft high, should also be available. Forklift capacity: Minimum 5,000 lbs.
Cubework storage spaces offer a remarkably effective solution for storing knob and tube wiring. Their open design and robust construction provide exceptional ventilation, which is crucial for these older wiring systems. Unlike enclosed spaces, cubework allows for airflow, minimizing potential buildup of dust and debris – a key factor in maintaining the wiring’s integrity. The modular nature of cubework is incredibly beneficial; you can easily adapt the storage configuration to fit your specific needs and the size of your knob and tube installations. Flexibility is key as you can quickly reconfigure the space if your inventory changes. Furthermore, cubework’s sturdy shelves and strong structure provide secure and stable storage, safeguarding your wiring from damage and ensuring it remains accessible.
