Metro 1848BR Super Erecta Wire Shelf 18x48 Steel

Product Description

The METRO 1848BR is a heavy-duty open-wire shelf designed for use with Intermetro shelving systems. Constructed from steel with a silver finish, it measures 18 inches deep by 48 inches wide, with an overall length of 41.875 inches. Built to a 4-gauge wire standard, the open-wire design promotes airflow and visibility across stored inventory while supporting substantial load capacity. This shelf is a standard component in commercial and institutional shelving configurations and is typically installed by facility maintenance staff, foodservice professionals, or storage system specialists.

The 1848BR fits within the Intermetro shelving ecosystem, making it a practical replacement or expansion shelf for existing rack systems. It is commonly deployed in commercial kitchens, walk-in coolers, stockrooms, healthcare facilities, and industrial storage environments where open-wire construction is preferred for hygiene, airflow, or inspection purposes. The silver finish provides a clean, professional appearance suited to both back-of-house and utility storage applications.

Installation Notes

Installation into Intermetro shelving posts requires no tools — shelves typically clip or press onto the upright posts and can be repositioned by hand. Ensure the shelving unit is unloaded and stable before adding or repositioning shelves. Verify post spacing and load rating of the overall shelving unit before placing heavy items. Installation should follow the manufacturer guidelines for the specific Intermetro post system in use.
