Commercial Metal Shelving for Contract Use

At Charterbrae, we manufacture robust, made-to-order metal shelving systems for demanding commercial, institutional, and residential settings. Designed and built in our West Midlands factory, our shelving offers reliable strength, custom sizing, and long-term durability — ideal for hostels, military barracks, student accommodation, schools, and workplace facilities.

Whether you’re fitting out storage rooms, dormitories, laundry areas, plant rooms, or service corridors, our steel-framed shelving delivers practical, high-capacity storage with minimal maintenance.

Metal Shelving Made to Measure for Your Space

Every shelving unit we supply is made to order. That means you get exactly what you need — not just standard sizes. We can design make shelving to fit awkward spaces, alcoves, or full walls, and provide adjustable shelf heights or fixed configurations depending on your requirements.

Typical applications include:

  • Utility and laundry rooms

  • Cleaning cupboards

  • Plant and comms rooms

  • Under-stair storage

  • Staff areas and welfare rooms

  • Secure residential or institutional facilities

Need wide spans? Extra depth? Reinforced shelves? We’ll manufacture to your spec.

Strong, Simple, Secure Shelving

Our shelving is built with welded steel frames and heavy-duty steel or laminate shelf panels. We prioritise durability and simplicity — so our shelves are stable, strong, and easy to maintain.

For added peace of mind, we can supply options such as:

  • Bolt-down feet for permanent installation

  • Anti-tamper fixings for secure environments

  • Adjustable levelling feet for uneven floors

  • Mesh or solid metal shelving

  • Powder-coated finishes in your choice of colour

Our shelving units are well-suited to high-use, low-supervision areas where reliability matters more than appearance — though they look smart too, especially in powder-coated white, grey, black or custom colours.

  • What materials are your shelves made from?

    We typically use welded steel for the frames and either steel or laminated MDF for the shelf panels. All materials are selected for strength, fire resistance, and suitability for commercial use.
