6m x 2m x 0.5m 1800KG Connecting Unit
This 6m 3-Bay tall longspan shelving unit is a complete 1800kg storage rack system, featuring three uniform 2m(W) bays,with shared central uprights, engineered for extra‑wide high‑ceiling double garages and large workshops where walkway space is a key consideration.
With 150kg per evenly‑loaded shelf across all 12 tiers, this tall longspan rack delivers 2m of vertical storage height with a space‑saving 0.5m standard depth. It comfortably fits standard Australian storage tubs, tool chests and bulky equipment while preserving maximum walkway clearance, with three equal‑width bays creating a clean, uniform layout ideal for neat, standardised storage organisation.
This unit stands independently as a complete 6m storage run, and can be further extended with additional matching add‑on bays to fit the exact 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
- 6m Extra Long 3‑Bay Uniform Standard‑Depth Design: Three identical 2m wide bays joined by two shared central uprights, forming a seamless 6m continuous storage run with a slim 0.5m footprint. The uniform width creates a symmetrical, built‑in look, while the standard depth preserves more walkway space than deeper models.
- 1800kg Total Regular‑Duty Capacity: 150kg per shelf (evenly distributed) across all 12 tiers, delivering 1800kg total load capacity 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: Every solid steel shelf across all three bays can be repositioned separately. You can match heights uniformly across all bays for a neat look, or customise per section for different item sizes.
-
Reinforced Stable Tall Frame: Heavy‑gauge steel uprights and cross bracing deliver solid structural stability across the full 6m length. The shared upright design and extended base footprint further reinforce overall balance and tilt resistance at 2m height.
What's Included
- 4 × steel upright frames (2m H)
- 12 × 2m (W) steel shelves
- All required nuts, bolts and assembly hardware
Note: This is a complete freestanding 3‑bay longspan system. It can stand on its own, or be extended with additional add‑on bays for longer storage runs.

Is this the right size for your space?
This 6m 3‑Bay tall longspan shelving system is the ideal choice if you have an approximately 6‑metre long wall with good ceiling height, and want a clean uniform full‑wall storage solution that preserves maximum walkway clearance.
The three equal‑width bays create a symmetrical, built‑in appearance that looks neater than mixed‑width layouts for wall‑to‑wall installations, while the 0.5m depth leaves more room for vehicle access and foot traffic than 0.6m deep models. The 2m height makes full use of high garage ceilings for extra vertical storage.
Choose our 6m 0.6m deep tall model if you need extra front‑to‑back depth for oversized storage tubs and have plenty of walkway space. Opt for our 5.5m mixed‑bay model if your wall is slightly shorter. For even longer walls, you can add extra matching add‑on bays to extend the system further.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What’s the main difference between this and the 6m × 2m × 0.6m deep longspan shelving?
This model uses a 0.5m standard depth instead of 0.6m. It takes up 100mm less front‑to‑back space, preserving more walkway room, while still fitting most standard‑size storage tubs and tools. The 0.6m deep version holds larger oversized containers but extends further into the room. - Is this 6m 3‑bay unit a complete standalone system, or do I need a separate starter bay?
This is a full freestanding 3‑bay storage rack with 4 upright frames. It is ready to use on its own right out of the box, and you can also add more matching add‑on bays later if you want to extend the storage run further. - Is a 6m long 2m tall system stable with the slimmer 0.5m depth?
Yes. The extended 6m base footprint and reinforced cross bracing are engineered for stability at this height and depth. For maximum safety, always place heavier items on lower shelves and lighter, less frequently used goods on upper tiers. - How does this uniform 3‑bay layout compare to mixed‑width 3‑bay systems?
Uniform 2m bays create a symmetrical, consistent look that works best for wall‑to‑wall installations and standard‑size containers. Mixed‑width layouts offer more zoning flexibility if you store a mix of very large and very small items.
