Garment Racking - The Basics, A Guide
This brief guide to garment racking is simply to be used as a starting point. Garment Racking is generally based around frames & tubular beams connected allowing the storage of garments on hangers (GOH).
Frame
Frames (Uprights)
The starting point of most racking & shelving systems, as shown on the right. Depth is pretty standard here : generally 600mm but can vary slightly either way. Heights are normally 3000mm or similar but is determined by the use; storage or picking or both. Check out our other guide for more info.
Garment Racking Beams
Garment Racking Bay
Beams (Horizontals, Bars)
Beams are tubular bars with connectors allowing them to link between two frames at a given height. Standard garment racks allow garments to hang outside the span of the frames, the advantage being that garments can be hung on both sides of the bay (more below).
Bays
Frames and beams combine to create bays. The first bay we create is the starter bay & this can be added to as shown to produce rows or runs of racking.
