5.2m*1.8m*0.6m 2500KG (W*H*D) Connecting Shelving With Workstation

5.2m x 1.8m x 0.6m Connecting Shelving Workbench

This 5.2‑metre heavy‑duty long‑span metal shelving bench delivers a practical all‑in‑one storage and workstation solution at a standard 1.8m height, ideal for regular‑ceiling garages, workshop bays and utility spaces across Australia.

It combines two 2m(W) shelving units on each end and two 1.2m(W) shelves in the centre, sharing uprights to form a continuous long-span workstation.At 1.8m tall, it sits comfortably under most standard Australian garage and shed ceilings, with easy everyday access to the top shelf without a step ladder. The dual side bays provide generous heavy‑duty storage for tools, parts and bulk items, while the central bay can be fitted with an optional benchtop to create a flat work surface right alongside your stored gear for efficient workflow. With 250kg per evenly distributed shelf and a 2500kg total system capacity, this 0.6m deep unit handles bulky equipment and large storage containers that standard‑depth regular‑duty shelving cannot support.

Finished in black powder coating for rust and chemical resistance, it delivers long‑lasting performance in both home and light commercial environments.

Key Features

• All‑In‑One Shelving + Workstation Design: Two 2m wide side storage bays flank a 1.2m compact central work bay, integrated into one seamless long‑span unit. Combines heavy‑duty storage and a dedicated work surface in a single footprint, eliminating the need for separate shelves and a standalone workbench.
• 1.8m Standard Height Profile: Universal 1.8m shelf height fits comfortably under most standard Australian garage, shed and workshop ceilings, with clear access to all shelf levels for everyday use. A practical, versatile height for most residential and small commercial spaces.
• 2500kg Total Heavy‑Duty Load Rating: 250kg per shelf (evenly distributed) across all 10 tiers, delivering 2500kg total system capacity engineered for bulky tools, heavy parts, cartons and equipment that exceed regular‑duty weight limits.
• 0.6m Extra Deep Format: 100mm deeper than standard 0.5m regular‑duty shelving, fully accommodating large storage tubs and wide workshop tool chests without dangerous front overhang.
• Optional Compact Benchtop Upgrade: The central bay can be fitted with a 1.2m wide worktop for a smooth, solid working surface. Note: During the August–December 2026 transition period, benchtops may be supplied in either black MDF or natural timber. Please advise your preference at time of order.
• Independently Adjustable Shelf Layouts: All 10 solid steel shelves can be repositioned separately at different heights, so you can customise storage heights on each side bay and set work surface levels to suit your workflow.
• Reinforced Frame with Specified Steel Thickness: Rigid steel uprights (0.7mm), crossrails (0.8mm) and shelves (0.45mm) deliver robust, stable structure across the full 5.2m span, suitable for both home garage and commercial workshop use.
• Modular Extendable Design: Works as a complete standalone workstation, or extends seamlessly with matching 1.8m(H) × 0.6m(D) heavy‑duty bays to build larger custom storage and work systems.

Specifications

Is This the Right Fit for Your Space?

This 5.2m heavy‑duty metal shelving bench is ideal if you want a combined storage and workstation solution for a standard‑ceiling garage or workshop, and prefer a compact central work area to maximise storage space.

The 1.8m standard height is the most practical choice for most Australian residential garages and small workshops, offering easy access to all shelves without excessive reach. The integrated design saves floor space by combining storage and work surface in one continuous unit, with heavy tools and parts stored right beside your work area for efficient workflow. The 0.6m extra depth ensures large items sit fully on shelves with no tipping hazard, unlike standard 0.5m deep regular‑duty units.

Choose our 2m tall 5.2m shelving bench if you have higher ceilings and want extra vertical storage capacity. Opt for the 5.5m wide shelving bench if you want a wider 1.5m central work area. Go for a standard 5m heavy‑duty connecting shelving unit if you only need storage and no dedicated work surface.

FAQs

1. What’s the difference between this 1.8m model and the 2m tall 5.2m shelving bench? 
   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 access to the top shelf for everyday use. Both share the same 1.2m central work bay, 0.6m depth and 250kg per shelf heavy‑duty load rating.
2. How wide is the central work bay, and how does it compare to the 5.5m workbench? 
   This unit has a 1.2m wide central work bay, designed for compact workspaces and general hand tasks. The 5.5m model has a wider 1.5m work bay for larger workpieces and project layouts. Both share the same 2m side storage bays and heavy‑duty load rating.
3. How much weight can the optional benchtop support? 
   The benchtop is designed for general workshop tasks, light assembly and hand tool use. For heavy hammer work, vice operations or heavy static loads, we recommend reinforcing the work bay or using a dedicated heavy‑duty workbench. Evenly distributed light to medium workshop loads are suitable.
4. Can I extend this unit with additional storage bays later?
    Yes. The unit is fully modular and compatible with all other 1.8m(H) × 0.6m(D) heavy‑duty shelving bays from our range. You can add bays to either end to expand storage capacity while keeping the central work bay in place.
