5-Tier Heavy-Duty Metal Shelving Unit with Pegboard, 78"H x 47.2"W x 18"D, 2000 lb Capacity

Shelves adjust in 1.5" increments, so measure your tallest items before assembly. For example, a 15" storage bin needs at least 16.5" of clearance between shelves. Standard totes (typically 12"–14" tall) fit comfortably within the default spacing. You can also convert the unit into two separate shorter shelving sections if you need more flexibility in a split layout.

Each shelf is rated for up to 400 lbs of evenly distributed load, for a total unit capacity of 2000 lbs across all five tiers. Avoid concentrating heavy loads on a single point — spread items across the full shelf surface for safe, stable storage. Reinforced double-leg uprights and under-shelf ribs support this rating under normal stationary use.

Yes — the powder-coated steel finish provides meaningful resistance to surface rust and moisture in covered environments like garages, basements, and utility rooms. It is generally not recommended for fully exposed outdoor use with direct rain or standing water. For best longevity in humid spaces, ensure adequate ventilation around the unit.

Yes. The 47.2" width and 18" depth accommodate most standard storage bins, totes, and containers sold at major home improvement retailers. Bins up to approximately 16" wide and 15" tall typically fit within a single tier at default spacing. Adjust shelf heights as needed to fit your specific containers.

No tools are required. The unit uses an interlocking connector system with pre-drilled holes that snap together by hand. The package includes assembly gloves, a rubber mallet for seating connectors, and a video assembly guide. Most users complete the full setup in under 10 minutes.

No — do not install the wheels. The wheels included in the package are intended for a different product model and are incompatible with this unit. Installing them will compromise the structural integrity and reduce the load-bearing capacity of the shelving. Please discard the wheels before assembly and build the unit as a stationary shelf.

The integrated pegboard panels are designed for lightweight to medium-weight items — typically hand tools, extension cords, hooks, small bins, and accessories. For heavier power tools or equipment, use the shelf tiers directly. Always distribute weight evenly across multiple pegboard hooks rather than loading a single hook point.

The sturdy horizontal shelf tiers can generally serve as a DIY workbench surface for light-to-medium tasks. The steel shelf surface is flat and stable. For dedicated workbench use, consider placing a plywood or MDF board on top of a tier to create a smoother, larger work surface. This is not a purpose-built workbench, so avoid impact-heavy tasks that could stress the frame.
