Ever wondered what type of industrial shelving is installed in your facility? It’s easier to tell with some manufacturers than others! While some shelving manufacturers choose to label their posts and clips with their own brand name to make identification quick & easy, many leave their shelving completely unbranded, making it difficult for someone without the expertise to determine which type of warehouse shelving they have.
Whether you’re looking to expand with matching shelving, purchase repair kits for existing shelving, or just want to know what type of metal shelving you have, look no further than this guide! In this article, we’ll provide you with real photos of the most common used shelving clips and posts we keep in stock here at ASI, and we’ll even let you in on which manufacturer’s clips and posts are compatible with eachother!
