Wire Shelving

Metro Wire Shelving: Heavy-Duty Wire Racks   

When you think of wire shelving, you think of Metro.  

Metro has been an industry leader since we introduced the first Erecta wire shelf in 1956. With the launch of our Super Erecta in 1969, we set the standard for wire shelves, a legacy that continues to this day.  

Today, the name Metro is synonymous with industrial wire shelving.

Heavy-Duty Wire Shelving Built to Last

Our wire shelving systems are engineered for high performance in demanding environments. From foodservice to healthcare, labs to warehouses, Metro delivers shelving that can adapt to your needs while standing the test of time.

Choose from finishes including chrome, Metroseal™ epoxy (green or gray), stainless steel, brite, and designer options, each tailored to specific environmental or industry needs.

Why Choose Metro Wire Rack Shelving?   

Metro shelving is known for its quality, strength, and breadth of line. With a wide array of options and customizations available, our products can be tailored to meet any facility's specific needs. 

Strength & Durability   

The proven strength and durability of our wire shelving are a function of its design. The post and collar design provides a full 360-degree capture of the post for maximum stability and durability. A 48" long wire shelf can hold up to 800 pounds safely.  

Metro is the only shelving with a Never Collapse Money-Back Guarantee.

Organization   

Our shelving systems help keep you organized. Shelf ledges prevent items from falling, and wire dividers allow for organized compartments. Add end panels to prevent products from slipping off, and our wire shelving label holders help quickly identify stored items.

Whether you’re building stationary shelves, mobile utility carts, or a track shelving system,  Metro wire racks are designed for modularity. Metro also provides a variety of wire shelf parts and accessories, including dividers, ledges, label holders, and end panels, to enhance organization and efficiency.
