The product
What it is, and when it earns its place
The middle of a shop floor is usually the least productive part of it. A centre rack fixes that by standing free in the aisle with shelves on both faces, so one unit and one footprint gives you two runs of frontage.
Height is the decision that matters most here. Too tall and the unit blocks sightlines across the shop, which makes the floor feel cramped and makes theft easier. Too short and you have given up shelf space for nothing. We set the height against your ceiling, your lighting and how far you want a customer at the door to be able to see.
Units are built in bays, so a run can be extended later without replacing what is already standing.
What we need to quote it
- Floor length available for the run, and the aisle width either side
- Ceiling height, and how far you want sightlines to carry
- Number of shelf levels per face
- Heaviest stock the base shelf will carry
- Whether the run needs end caps

Questions
Centre Racks: common questions
How wide should the aisle either side be?
It depends on whether customers use trolleys, baskets or neither. Tell us which at enquiry stage and we will set the run length so the aisles work rather than filling the floor to the walls.
Can a run be extended later?
Yes. Centre racks are built in bays, so extra bays can be added to an existing run as the floor changes.
Do both faces have to match?
No. The shelf pitch is set per face, so one side can carry deep cartons while the other carries small packaged goods.
