Metro 5N347BR 5-shelf Wire Shelving Starter Unit

Product Description

The METRO 5N347BR is a five-shelf open-wire shelving starter unit built for demanding storage environments in commercial, industrial, and institutional settings. The unit ships complete with four numbered posts and five Super Erecta wire shelves, giving installers a ready-to-configure storage column out of the box. The open-wire design allows free air circulation and maximizes visibility of stored items, reducing dust accumulation compared to solid-surface alternatives. Shelves reposition at 1-inch increments along the numbered posts, making load-height adjustments fast and tool-free. The brite silver finish suits dry utility, stockroom, and back-of-house applications.

This unit is well suited for stockrooms, utility areas, commercial kitchens, warehouses, and light industrial facilities where adjustable, visible storage is required. At 42 inches wide, 18 inches deep, and 74 inches tall, it offers a substantial storage footprint in a standard upright profile. The starter unit configuration is designed to stand alone or serve as the anchor for an add-on unit expansion, making it practical for both single-bay and multi-bay shelving runs. Installation is typically performed by maintenance technicians or facilities personnel without specialized tools.

Installation Notes

Assembly requires no tools for standard post-and-shelf configuration; shelves snap onto posts at the desired 1-inch increment positions. Ensure the unit is placed on a level surface and that post feet are properly seated before loading. For multi-bay installations, pair with a compatible add-on unit using shared posts per the manufacturer assembly guide. Do not exceed the rated load capacity of individual shelves or the overall unit.
