The PrimeZone 5-Tier wire shelving unit is designed with a 14-inch depth, making it a practical choice for narrow hallways or shallow pantries where standard industrial racks might be too bulky. Specifications indicate the frame is constructed from carbon steel with a chrome-plated finish, which provides a layer of resistance against oxidation for typical indoor use. The 36-inch wide shelves feature a reinforced Z-pattern wire mesh underneath to help prevent the surface from bowing under the weight of household goods.
While the unit is marketed for heavy-duty use, tests show that the choice of feet significantly impacts its weight capacity. When using the threaded leveling feet, the unit maintains its highest level of stability. However, opting for the mobile casters introduces a practical reality where the safe working load is reduced. The plastic-wheeled mounts are designed for convenience rather than extreme weight, and overloading the unit while it is on wheels may lead to shear stress on the stems.
For a successful setup, it is important to note that the plastic slip sleeves used to secure the shelves are engineered with a small gap between the two halves. These are designed to lock firmly only once the shelf is seated and downward pressure is applied. Because the wire spacing is wide enough for small items to tip, adding polypropylene shelf liners can improve the everyday utility of the rack for storing kitchen spices or small tools.
If you find that a 36-inch width is insufficient for your garage or warehouse needs, the REIBII 60-inch wide shelving unit offers a much larger surface area for high-density storage.
