What is Modern Shelving?

Modern Shelving is a company specializing in high-quality, customizable shelving solutions for garages, basements, and other storage spaces. Our products are designed to be durable, easy to install, and adaptable to various storage needs.

What materials are used in Modern Shelving products?

Our shelving units are made from heavy-duty steel with a powder-coated finish for durability and resistance to rust and corrosion. The shelves are typically made from high-grade particleboard or plywood, designed to hold significant weight.

How much weight can Modern Shelving units hold?

The weight capacity depends on the specific shelving model. Most of our units can hold between 600 to 4,000 lbs per shelf when properly installed. Always check the product specifications for exact weight limits.

Are Modern Shelving products easy to install?

Yes! Our shelving systems are designed for easy DIY installation with clear instructions and minimal tools required. Many customers complete setup in under an hour.

Can I customize my shelving unit?

Absolutely. Modern Shelving offers adjustable shelf heights, optional add-ons like hooks or bins, and various size configurations to fit your specific storage needs.

Do you offer international shipping?

Currently, Modern Shelving ships primarily within the United States. For international inquiries, please contact our customer service team for possible arrangements.
