Global Industrial B3171609 Boltless Shelving Starter Wire Deck

Product Description

The GLOBAL INDUSTRIAL B3171609 is a 4-shelf standard duty boltless shelving starter unit with wire decking, designed for high-density storage in retail, commercial, and industrial environments. Built on roll-formed steel framing with 2 inches x 1 inch 14-gauge steel uprights, this unit supports up to 1,000 pounds per level. Shelves adjust vertically on 1-inch increments, and the snap-in boltless design requires no nuts, bolts, or clips for assembly. Wire decking provides ventilation, visibility, and light penetration while allowing sprinkler water to pass through freely, supporting fire safety compliance.

This shelving starter is suited for warehouse, stockroom, retail backroom, and light industrial storage applications. The open four-sided design allows unrestricted access from any direction, making it practical in high-turnover pick environments. The unit measures 96 inches wide by 30 inches deep by 96 inches high, making it appropriate for facilities with standard or high-ceiling storage configurations. Double rivet button stud construction locks perimeter beams into corner posts, eliminating back and side sway under load. The chip-resistant gray baked enamel finish holds up to regular use in demanding environments.

Installation Notes

Front-to-back supports must be installed as directed to prevent beam rotation under full load. Inspect all connections before placing weight on any shelf level.
