Open Bay Shelving or Clad?

Open bay shelving or clad.....that is the question! The answer lies completely with the Customer. What are you going to use it for? Do you want more protection? Do you prefer the more finished look? Then clad bays are probably for you, but if accessibility & economy is more important to you, then open bays are more suitable.

Open Shelving

• Not only does open shelving have greater accessibility, it is also more economical than clad shelving. Stability is provided through the use of back braces, which eliminate any lateral movement.

Clad Shelving

• This shelving uses steel panels to clad the backs and/or sides of the shelving unit, giving greater stability. Clad units offer greater protection of stored items than open units do. Clad shelving provide a cleaner, finished look and offers greater flexibility with a huge range of accessories, including doors, steel drawers (Expo 4 Shelving) etc., 
• Back panels fasten to the posts. Back-to-back units are able to utilise a common back panel, provided the units are securely bolted together.

With our very popular Delta Edge Office Shelving, we offer 2 shelf depths, offering lateral filing on the 350mm shelf (suspended underneath the shelf) and a choice of 2 shelf dividers for easy management of your archives.
