4m*2m*0.5m 1200KG (W*H*D) Connecting Shelving

4m x 2m x 0.5m LongSpan Metal Shelving 1200KG 2-bays Storage Rack | Apple Shelving

This 4‑metre tall regular‑duty LongSpan metal shelving unit is a complete 2‑bays storage rack system, engineered for high‑ceiling double garages, large workshops and light commercial spaces across Australia.

With 1200kg total load capacity and 150kg per evenly‑loaded shelf across 4 tiers per bay, this tall longspan rack unlocks 200mm of extra vertical storage compared to standard 1.8m models, making full use of unused upper wall space for seasonal items, bulky equipment and stacked storage tubs.

This unit stands independently as a complete 4m storage run, and can be further extended with additional matching add‑on bays to fit the full length of your wall.

Note: For industrial warehouse use requiring higher heavy‑load longspan systems, explore our heavy‑duty connecting shelving range for commercial‑grade strength.

Key Features

• 4m LongSpan 2‑Bays Integrated Design: Two 2m wide bays joined by one shared central upright, forming a seamless 4m continuous metal shelving run. The shared upright design creates a gap‑free built‑in look and reduces overall cost compared to two separate standalone units.
• 1200kg Total Regular‑Duty Capacity: 150kg per shelf (evenly distributed per bay), 4 tiers across two bays for 1200kg total load, suitable for everyday garage tools, storage tubs, spare parts and light workshop inventory.
• 2m Extra Tall Vertical Storage: 200mm taller than standard 1.8m high racks, maximising storage volume in high‑ceiling spaces and accommodating taller items like vacuum cleaners, step ladders and long‑handled gardening tools.
• Independently Adjustable Shelf Layouts: All 8 solid steel shelves can be repositioned separately, so you can customise height configurations on each bay to fit boxes, tubs and equipment of varying sizes.
• Durable Powder‑Coated Metal Build: High‑grade carbon steel frame with black powder‑coated finish, resistant to scratches, dust and minor stains, built for long‑term indoor use in garages and workshops.
  

What's Included

• 3 × steel upright frames (2m H)
• 8 × 2m (W) steel shelves
• All required nuts, bolts and assembly hardware

Note: This is a complete freestanding 2‑bay longspan system. It can stand on its own, or be extended with additional add‑on bays for longer storage runs.

Specifications

Is this the right size for your space?

This 4m 2‑bay tall longspan metal shelving system is the ideal choice if you have a high‑ceiling double garage with a roughly 4‑metre long blank wall, and want extra vertical storage capacity beyond standard height racks.

The 2m height makes full use of typical Australian garage ceiling space, adding significantly more total storage volume than 1.8m tall models, while the 4m width covers a large wall section in one seamless unit.

Choose our 1.8m tall 4m longspan model if you have lower ceilings. Opt for our 0.6m deep tall longspan range if you need extra front‑to‑back depth for oversized storage tubs and heavy tool chests. For even longer walls, you can add extra matching add‑on bays to extend the system further.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What are the benefits of a 2‑bay longspan system over two separate single bays? 
   A 2‑bay longspan unit shares one central upright instead of using two separate end uprights. This lowers total cost, reduces installation time and creates a gap‑free continuous shelf surface with a cleaner, more integrated appearance.
2. What minimum ceiling height do I need for this 2m tall metal shelving? 
   We recommend at least 2.1m of clear internal ceiling height to leave a small safety gap above the rack and allow safe placement and removal of items on the top shelf.
3. Can I add more bays to this 2‑bay rack later on?
    Yes, the system is fully modular. You can purchase additional matching 2m(H) × 0.5m(D) add‑on bays at any time to extend the continuous storage run to fit the exact length of your wall.
4. Is the 2m tall 4m long system stable when fully loaded? 
   No. The extended 4m base footprint creates a wide, stable foundation, and the reinforced cross bracing is engineered for 2m height. For maximum safety, always place heavier items on lower shelves and lighter, less frequently used goods on upper tiers.
