Grating for shelving

The shelf grating from GEI offers excellent rigidity and also provides good visibility of the storage spaces from below.

These metal decking panels are an indispensable solution for optimized space planning and organization in a variety of environments, such as warehouses, workshops, storage rooms, or even in private settings.

Whether you need tall shelving systems for bulky goods or low racks for easy-access items, we have the right solution for your requirements.

For our custom-made solutions for cantilever or pallet racks, we offer the following surface finishes.

An important factor when selecting the appropriate grating is distinguishing between light, medium, and heavy loads.

We keep four carefully selected shelf grating formats in stock to meet a wide range of load requirements and applications. Each model has a safety factor of 1.5.

Grating for shelving offer a number of advantages

Provides excellent rigidity and stability for stored items
Allows better visibility of stored items
Allows light to pass through
Allows water to pass through
Quick and easy to install

Possible surface treatments

Raw steel Galvanized Powder-coated

Depending on your requirements, 4 models can be manufactured

Model A - corner flap
This model is especially suitable for shelving where the height is restricted, for uniformly
distributed load.

Model B - flanged
edge
Suitable for various types of shelving, this model has many advantages,
especially when it comes to its
production costs.
With its support on the beams, it allows a greater load pick-up and safety with its flanged edges which immobilises the grating on the racks.

Model C - with cleats
This model allows support and stability of the gratings as the racks are
supported by the cleats underneath.

Model D - notched edge
With its support on the beams, this
model can bear greater loads and provides optimal security based on the way it is indented.

Model E - notch
Thanks to its two stops, this model
allows the stability of the gratings in the racks. Thus it allows maximum security.

Model G - folded sheet metal
This model is especially suitable for shelving where the height is reduced and for a point load.

Model Z
This model is especially suitable for shelving where the height is reduced and for a point load.

Mesh

The mesh spacing is the clear distance between the bearing and cross bars. It is determined in accordance with the standards and loads to be complied with and is used by our technical office for the static calculation. With a thickness of the bearing bars of 2 to 3 mm: The mesh width of the bearing bars is generally a multiple of 11.11. For filler bars, the mesh width is generally a multiple of 11.11. With a thickness of the bearing bars of 4 to 5 mm, the mesh spacing of the bearing bars is usually a multiple of 18 and for the filler bars a multiple of 17. Other designs on request.

Standards

Although gratings are not subject to a specific individual standard, they are particularly suitable for complying with EN 12845+A1 “Fixed firefighting systems – Automatic sprinkler systems”.

Shelving gratings are available in press-locked and press-welded gratings

GEI press-locked grating is characterized by transverse, cross bars inserted under high pressure into pre-existing notches in the bearing bars. This grating is produced in “flat” or “T”-shaped sections, welded into place and then optionally undergoes hot-dip galvanizing in accordance with the applicable EN ISO 1461 standards. For situations with an increased risk of slipping, anti-slip grating can be produced, where the upper surface of the bearing bars and/or the transverse bars can be given anti-slip serrations. GEI press-locked grating is typically manufactured from EN 10025 standard S235JR steel, which ensures a consistent production quality. RAL-GZ 638 manufacturing tolerances applied.

STEP 3:

Application of banding bars

Press-welded grating is obtained by electrical welded transverse bars, which are usually square and twisted (but can be round and straight) into the bearing bars. The grating is produced with “flat” banding, and then optionally undergoes hot-dip galvanizing in accordance with the applicable EN ISO 1461 standards. For an optimised anti-slip surface, it is possible to produce serrated press-welded grating, with serration on the bearing bars only. It is typically manufactured from EN 10025 standard S235JR steel which ensures a consistent production quality. RAL-GZ 638 manufacturing tolerances applied.
