Public institutions, schools, libraries, law offices, and various workspaces require archive shelving systems. Banks and hospitals also need shelving systems to store documents with a high level of confidentiality. These shelving systems are referred to as folder, file, and bookshelf racks.
In recent years, with the advancement of technology, sliding cabinets have started to be used instead of shelves. Although their costs are higher compared to steel shelves, they are very practical. In this system, cabinets are operated on rails. It is essential for them to be completely closed and lockable. They provide high security against fire and theft. Technologies that can be controlled with remote control can be added to the system.

Archive shelves are racks that ensure the organized and secure storage of documents, files, and folders. The required document can be found quickly. Since they are generally made of steel, they are durable. Second-hand options are also available. In this case, you may not find additional shelf equipment. Shelf board, shelf leg, galvanized shelf bolt, and attachments called blades are the main components of the systems. Careful packaging is required for shipping to prevent damage to the shelf surface.
Shelf systems are economical and practical. Due to the sale of raw materials in dollars, some companies may price in dollars. It is beneficial to make scaled drawings in three dimensions before ordering. This minimizes the margin of error. Projecting is done based on the weight of the material to be archived, the volume, and the height of the warehouse. Orders are placed for steel cabinets, steel shelves, or open shelves. Steel cabinets are suitable for confidential documents. Open shelving systems are used with archive boxes. The aim here is to protect the document from external influences.
