Metro MX1872G Open Shelving Extra Shelf 18x72 Metro Max I

Product Description

The METRO MX1872G is a polymer extra shelf designed for use with the Metro Max I open shelving system. Measuring 18 inches deep and 72 inches wide, this shelf expands storage capacity within an existing Metro Max I framework without requiring additional uprights or major hardware. The polymer construction resists moisture, corrosion, and common cleaning agents, making it well suited for food service, healthcare, and industrial storage environments. At 23 pounds, the shelf is substantial enough for commercial-grade use while remaining manageable for a single installer. HVAC, foodservice, and facility maintenance professionals working in regulated environments will find the material and build appropriate for demanding conditions.

This shelf is intended as a component-level addition to Metro Max I open shelving configurations. It is used where additional shelf levels are needed within an established Metro Max I unit, such as in walk-in storage areas, back-of-house food prep zones, cleanrooms, or utility rooms. The 72-inch width provides a full-bay span, and the 18-inch depth suits standard single-side access configurations. Installers typically add this shelf when reorganizing storage layouts or increasing density within an existing Metro Max I bay.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by facility maintenance staff or shelving contractors familiar with Metro Max I components. Before adding or repositioning shelves, ensure the unit is unloaded and stable to prevent tipping. Follow the Metro Max I assembly documentation for proper shelf clip or post engagement. No special tools are generally required, but verify that the existing posts and clips are in good condition before loading the new shelf.
