    Safely Store Your Telescope – Secure & Climate-Controlled Storage

    Warehouse storage provides an optimal solution for safeguarding telescopes, ensuring their longevity and pristine condition. Telescopes, with their delicate optical components and often substantial weight, benefit significantly from a secure, organized environment. A well-managed warehouse offers robust protection from dust, debris, and physical impacts, key factors in preventing damage to mirrors, lenses, and housings. Utilizing sturdy shelving systems and appropriate padding during stacking is crucial for maximizing space utilization and minimizing the risk of scratches or dents. Consider grouping telescopes by size and weight to optimize pallet arrangements. Regular inspections of stored units are vital to identify and address any potential issues proactively. Warehouse facilities typically offer enhanced security measures, including access control and surveillance, adding another layer of protection. Furthermore, the consistent, stable environment of a warehouse – free from extreme fluctuations – contributes to the overall stability of the telescope’s internal elements, promoting long-term visual performance. A dedicated warehouse space allows for efficient inventory management and easy retrieval when a telescope is needed for sale or service.

    Space Requirements

    • Storage Size/Dimensions: Minimum 200 square feet, ideally 20ft x 10ft, with a height clearance of 9 feet. Allow for a 4ft access aisle around each telescope.

    • Storage Conditions: Store telescopes in a dry, well-ventilated area. Avoid direct sunlight exposure. The floor should be level and covered with a protective material like interlocking foam tiles to prevent scratching.

    • Special Handling: Telescopes are considered fragile. Each unit requires a minimum of 4ft x 4ft of protective padding, including foam corner protectors and cardboard wrapping. Palletizing is discouraged; manual handling is preferred.

    • Stacking/Shelving: Telescopes should be stored on their side, supported by a padded cradle. Consider using adjustable shelving units with 4ft spacing between shelves. Pallet storage is permissible, but each pallet should be limited to a maximum of two telescopes.

    • Access Requirements: Loading dock needs a minimum width of 12ft for truck access. The warehouse door should be at least 10ft wide with a clear opening of 9ft. A 6ft clearance space is needed for maneuvering equipment around the stored telescopes. Ensure the floor is free of obstructions.
