Description

Lyon’s gravity flow racks are an economical solution for a variety of storage needs. We offer this gravity racking system with a durable powder coat finish available in Dove Gray. This will help protect your gravity flow shelving systems from everyday use. This is ideal when storing heavy items such as using them as an automotive battery storage rack.

WHAT ARE GRAVITY FLOW RACKS?

A gravity flow racking system has levels that are offset so that the back of a level is higher than the front. When someone takes the item in the front, the rest of the items will slide forward. This will allow items always be at the front. You can use a gravity flow rack in a warehouse to make picking items easier. Workers won’t have to strain and reach for items on the back side of a rack level. Our heavy-duty waterfall decking makes these racks great for bulky items like automotive batteries. A gravity feed battery rack is great for a dealership or auto shop. An auto parts store can benefit from them by using them as an automotive battery display rack.

ANGLE POSTS

We make the uprights for our gravity flow racks out of 14-gauge steel. Each of our gravity feed racks include four angle uprights. These posts feature keyhole slots so as to hold the rivet rack beams in place. Steel beams drop into the slots of the uprights to create a sturdy and rigid structure. Upright posts are available in either 72″h or 84″h sizes.

DOUBLE RIVET BEAMS

Our 14-gauge medium-duty beams feature double rivets. This double rivet design creates rigid assembly as well as added strength. The double rivets easily slide into the keyhole slots on the uprights. These gravity flow racks include the beams necessary to create 4 levels. Each level consists of two width beams coupled with two depth beams. The levels easily adjust on 1-1/2-inch centers. Because of our design, these storage racks have an overall weight capacity of 1,000 lbs per level. Since the beams install without tools it’s easy to adjust your level spacing when your storage needs change.

WIRE DECKING

The Lyon gravity flow racks also include wire decking. Our wire decking on this gravity rack features waterfall edges. The back edge sits on the beam and helps keep the decking from shifting down. The front edge is curled up so it prevents items from sliding off the rack. The wire decking screws into the beam to keep it secured. This heavy-duty decking can handle heavy items. It makes it perfect for use as battery storage racks. The galvanized finish is resistant to corrosion which is another benefit to using these for an automotive battery rack.

ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION

While our gravity flow racks ship unassembled, you can put them together with ease. Lyon strongly recommends that all gravity fed racking systems be properly anchored. Make sure your metal storage racks are installed plumb and level before anchoring them to the floor and/or wall. Use the Rivet Rack Foot Plates and Wedge Anchors to anchor your posts to the floor.
