Archive shelving

Additionally, they can be mounted on mobile bases to increase storage capacity by removing wasteful gangways.

Whether you’re in need of just a few bays or a full document storage facility, HMF can design an archive shelving system to meet your needs and budget.

Office shelving

• An aesthetically pleasing shelving system
• Ideal for commercial offices and storage rooms
• Mobile options available
• A choice of accessories is available

For a quality office shelving storage system, discover our office shelving range. Choose from a range of office shelving types that have been designed to suit the versatile office shelving market, offering an aesthetically pleasing finish that compliments office furniture, together with an optimised office storage design.

With a full range of accessories such as office filing rails, lockable doors and pull-out reference shelves as well as decorative end and back panels, this is a highly customisable office storage solution designed to work around the needs of your office. All office shelving can be mounted on mobile bases to make space-efficient mobile shelving, and being a modular system, you have the option to add bays on at any time.

Mobile shelving

• Ideal for smaller spaces where space is limited
• Customisable options available
• Suitable for office archive storage
• Lockable storage options available
• Ergonomic computer-driven or hand-wheel movement options available

Mobile shelving is commonly used to cut down the floor space of archive shelving areas, by removing wasteful gangways and getting more bays of shelving into a smaller footprint. This style of mobile shelving supports all standard methods of filing and organising and can be fitted with a variety of accessories. To access stored information, the mobile shelves can be moved effortlessly using the hand wheel, or if the archive is used frequently you can also choose the ergonomic computer-controlled drive option. This commercial shelving system can also be lockable.

Mobile shelving uses a low-profile base which goes straight onto a flat carpeted area, with a chipboard infill and either vinyl or carpet finish, hiding the tracks and reducing trip hazards. Where mobile shelving is used in an archive store such as document storage or medical records, the tracks can be fixed to the concrete slab and levelled to ensure the bases are mounted on a level surface. Chipboard infill panels and entry ramps are fitted to reduce trip hazards. All office shelving systems can be mounted on mobile bases and any existing shelving can also be mounted onto mobile bases.
