2m*1.8m*0.6m 1600KG (W*H*D) Wire Shelving

2m x 1.8m x 0.6m Heavy-Duty Standard Wire Shelving 1600kg | Apple Shelving

Product Description

This 2‑metre heavy‑duty standard wire shelving unit delivers high‑capacity ventilated storage at a universal 1.8m height, ideal for standard‑ceiling garages, warehouses and office storage spaces across Australia.

At 1.8m tall, it sits comfortably under most standard residential and commercial ceilings, with easy everyday access to the top shelf without needing a step ladder. Built with an open‑grid wire mesh design, it allows natural airflow and light penetration while preventing dust build‑up – a practical advantage over solid steel shelves for items that need ventilation, or for spaces where dust accumulation is a concern. Each mesh shelf supports up to 400kg when evenly distributed, delivering a total 1600kg system capacity – far heavier than standard light‑duty wire shelving.

The sturdy steel frame with a black powder‑coated finish provides durable, corrosion‑resistant performance, with adjustable shelf heights to suit your storage needs. An optional 4‑piece castor wheel set with brakes is available to turn the unit into a mobile storage solution, ideal for workshops, warehouses and retail stock rooms.

Backed by a 2‑year manufacturer warranty and 100% satisfaction guarantee, it’s a robust, versatile storage solution for both commercial and residential use.

Specifications

Is This the Right Fit for Your Space?

This heavy‑duty standard wire shelving unit is ideal if you need high‑capacity ventilated storage for a standard‑ceiling space, where easy access to the top shelf is a priority.

The 1.8m height is the most practical choice for most residential garages, small warehouses and office store rooms, offering easy reach to all shelves without excessive reach. The open‑grid design makes it well suited for items that benefit from ventilation, and for low‑maintenance storage that resists dust build‑up.

Choose our 2m extra‑tall wire shelving unit if you have higher ceilings and want extra vertical storage capacity. Opt for solid steel shelving if you store small parts, fasteners or items that could fall through mesh openings. Go for a pegboard shelving unit if you want integrated tool hanging storage.

FAQs

1. What’s the difference between this 1.8m model and the 2m tall wire shelving unit? 
   This model is 200mm shorter at 1.8m tall, designed for standard ceiling heights where a 2m tall unit would leave minimal clearance or not fit at all. It offers easier everyday access to the top shelf without a step ladder. Both share the same 400kg per shelf heavy‑duty rating, 0.6m depth and open‑grid wire mesh design.
2. What’s the difference between wire shelving and solid steel shelving?
    Wire shelving has an open‑grid mesh surface that allows natural airflow and light penetration, and resists dust build‑up. Solid steel shelving has a flat solid surface, better for small parts and items that would fall through mesh. This heavy‑duty wire model matches solid steel shelving for load capacity, with the added benefit of ventilation.
3. How much weight can each wire shelf hold? 
   Each wire shelf supports up to 400kg when weight is evenly distributed across the surface. Across all 4 shelves, the total system capacity is 1600kg – significantly higher than standard light‑duty consumer wire shelving.
4. Can I add wheels to make this unit mobile?
    Yes. An optional 4‑piece castor wheel set with brakes is available separately. The castors fit directly to the upright frames, converting the unit into a mobile storage solution ideal for workshops and stock rooms.
5. Are the shelves adjustable? 
   Yes. All four wire shelves can be repositioned at different heights along the upright frames, so you can customise compartment sizes to fit boxes, tubs and equipment of varying sizes.
