We manufacture at Bahadurgarh and supply Gujarat by road. A File Storage Rack is a bolted angle frame with adjustable shelf panels, assembled and re-pitched on site without welding. Most of what we send to Gujarat goes into chemicals, pharmaceuticals, textiles and ceramics, with a high share of drummed and packaged liquids.
What decides the specification in Gujarat
Containment comes up more often here than anywhere else: what the rack holds is frequently a liquid in a drum rather than a carton. For File Storage Racks the figure that settles it is shelf pitch and the weight on one level, because the stock list changes more often than the building does.
Industry in Gujarat runs to chemicals, pharmaceuticals, textiles and ceramics, with a high share of drummed and packaged liquids, and that is the stock these bays usually hold.
File Storage Racks — what we build to
Load per level (UDL): 50 kg to 200 kg, evenly distributed
Levels: Typically 4 to 7, adjustable on 25 mm slot pitch
Material: Mild steel, CR/HR coil to IS 513 / IS 10743
Finish: Powder coated
Where File Storage Racks is used in Gujarat
Across the trade it goes into spares and tooling stores, record rooms, retail back rooms and workshop stores. The job it does is hand-picked storage of cartons, tools, spares and files. In Gujarat specifically, the enquiries come mostly from chemicals, pharmaceuticals, textiles and ceramics, with a high share of drummed and packaged liquids, so that is the stock we are usually sizing for.
Buying one rather than another
It is the cheapest position per kilogram of anything we build, and the easiest to change later. Where the load climbs past about 200 kg a level, a beam rack is the better answer and we will say so.
Getting a price for Rajkot
Send the floor area you can give it, the clear height, the heaviest single shelf load and roughly how many levels you want. Tell us whether you want supply only or supply with fitting, and we will quote it that way. Everything is made at our own plant at HSIIDC Bahadurgarh — we are the manufacturer, not a stockist re-badging someone else’s frames.
Containment comes up more often here than anywhere else: what the rack holds is frequently a liquid in a drum rather than a carton. If that is not obvious from the site, send a photograph of the bay and the dimensions, and we will mark up what will fit before anything is quoted for Rajkot.
Specifications — File Storage Racks
File Storage Racks are built on our
Slotted Angle Racks range, so the figures below are that
range's standard sizes.
Spanco manufactures to order, so these are what is
produced at the Bahadurgarh plant rather than a fixed catalogue size.
Final bay loading is confirmed against your pallet weight, bay width and
level configuration before drawings are issued.
Built to the ranges listed below — sizes are made to your bay.

Questions buyers ask before ordering
Do you manufacture File Storage Racks to custom sizes?
Yes. File Storage Racks are made to order at our Bahadurgarh plant, so bay width, shelf depth and the number of levels are set against your stock rather than a fixed catalogue size. Standard builds run 5 ft to 10.5 ft with 50 kg to 200 kg per level; tell us the heaviest level load and the bay width you want and we will confirm the angle gauge.
What load can a slotted angle rack take per shelf?
Our standard build carries 50 kg to 200 kg per level as a uniformly distributed load. The figure depends on the angle gauge and the bay width: a 900 mm bay in 2.0 mm angle carries considerably more than a 1200 mm bay in 1.2 mm angle, because the shelf is spanning further. Tell us the bay width you want and the weight you intend to put on one level and we will confirm the gauge.
When should I use slotted angle instead of pallet racking?
The deciding factor is what lifts the goods. If a person loads the shelf by hand, slotted angle is the cheaper and more flexible answer. Once a pallet and a forklift are involved, you need pallet racking, because beam sections and the boltless connector are designed for that impact. As a rough line, hand-loaded stock under about 200 kg per level is slotted angle territory.

Steps of manufacture
How we work
Every rack on this site is made on one line at our own
5000 m² plant in Bahadurgarh.
Nothing is bought in and re-badged, which is why we can answer for the
steel grade, the coating and the bay loading on the same call.
