Bsc Preferred WS482486 Chrome Wire Shelving Unit 48x24x86

Product Description

The BSC PREFERRED WS482486 is a chrome-plated steel wire shelving starter unit designed for organized, high-capacity storage in commercial and industrial environments. The unit ships with four upright posts and four adjustable wire shelves that can be repositioned in 1-inch increments along the posts. Assembly requires no tools, making setup fast for warehouse staff, facility managers, or supply room technicians. NSF certification makes this unit suitable for food service, healthcare, and other regulated storage applications. The chrome finish over steel provides corrosion resistance and durability in demanding service conditions.

This starter unit fits residential, commercial, and institutional storage applications including walk-in coolers, dry storage rooms, stockrooms, and utility spaces. The 48-inch width and 86-inch post height provide substantial vertical storage capacity. The system is designed to expand: Add-On Unit WS482486A connects directly to share posts with this starter unit, reducing hardware and cost when extending a run. Swivel casters (sold separately as WSCASTER) can be added to mobilize the entire unit for flexible floor layouts. Additional wire shelves and accessories are sold separately to customize shelf spacing and load distribution.

Installation Notes

Assembly is tool-free and intended for end users or facility staff following the included instructions. When building extended runs using Add-On Units, ensure posts are plumb and shelf clips are fully seated before loading. Units should be placed on level flooring; if casters are added, verify caster weight ratings match the intended load. For refrigerated or wet environments, confirm the floor surface is suitable for the post foot design to prevent shifting.
