How we price it
The exact price depends on your specific model, since two items that look similar can be very different to build. The most accurate way is to send a photo of the finished item from the store website, or its model reference, when you request your quote. A $120 minimum applies per visit, so several items together in one visit is usually the best value.

Utility shelving is a metal post-and-bracket system used in garages, storage rooms, and laundries. The posts are the starting point and need to be plumb before any brackets or shelves are fitted. Most utility shelving systems have two main components: slotted vertical posts and shelf brackets that hook into the slots. The post slots are at regular intervals, usually 25mm or 50mm. Each bracket hooks into two slots on the same post, so the bracket is always parallel to the floor regardless of which slot pair is used. The height adjustment is in 25mm or 50mm increments. Wall-fixed posts need to be fixed to studs. On a run of multiple posts, all posts need to be at the same distance from the wall. A post that is 10mm further from the wall than the adjacent post will cause the shelf to rack when loaded. Most utility shelving posts have a fixed wall bracket at the top and a base foot at the bottom. The base foot needs to be on a solid surface. Freestanding utility shelving has a cross-brace at the rear that keeps the posts from racking under load. The cross-brace goes in before any shelves are loaded. The brace is usually a pair of wire or rod diagonals that run from one post top to the opposite post base. Both diagonals need to be tensioned evenly or the posts will lean toward the tighter side. Shelves rest on the bracket arms without bolts on most designs. Where the shelf is bolted, the bolt needs to align with the pre-drilled hole in the shelf. Work comes from apartments in the inner city, terrace houses in the Inner West and houses across the Eastern Suburbs. Message us what is in the box and we will price it.
