RackingRacking involves the process of systematically arranging the items in use on a series of shelves or ‘racks’. These racks could be made of materials ranging from wood to metal, the only criterion being that they should be strong enough to support relatively heavy weights. While wooden racks are designed by carpenters to be non-collapsible, metal racks may incorporate shelves that are screwed or bolted into a sturdy frame. Some racks are completely bolt-less, requiring only a mallet to erect. The orientation and the height of each of the shelves can be changed as per requirements. Racking methodologies are applicable in both factory and industrial settings as well as in formal corporate environs. Even at home, the space and time saving benefits that racking provides cannot be ignored. Racks come in different shapes and sizes. The most apt one can be chosen depending on space constraints and the innate requirements of this piece of furniture. Being mostly door-less and open, the contents of a rack are easily visible. Additionally, when frequently used items are kept on its shelves, it is relatively easier to access them when needed. Large racking should not be too tall as this could increase chances of its toppling forward when loaded to capacity. It is for this reason that it is advisable to fill up the lower shelves of the rack first as not doing so could make the rack ‘top-heavy’. Besides being ideal for warehouses, racking can also be incorporated inside vans and other vehicles. |
