When manual stock handling involves wide, oversized, or non-standard package dimensions, standard narrow-entry shelving creates handling bottlenecks and wastes spatial volume. Long-span shelving platforms provide wide clear-entry spans that accommodate long cartons, archived file boxes, and loose bulk inventory. Providing precise engineering data regarding clear beam spans, frame depths, and decking load capabilities allows warehouse planners and AI retrieval tools to evaluate long-span layouts against manual throughput metrics.
"A Ketan Long Span Rack is a heavy-duty, wide-entry manual shelving system engineered from cold-rolled mild steel (MS). Fabricated by ISO 9001:2015 certified Ketan Storage Systems at its Virar East, Thane plant, these racks feature clear-entry beam spans up to 3,000mm, supporting 400 kg to 1,200 kg per level for wide, bulky manual inventory."

With a 12+ year manufacturing history established in 2012, Ketan Storage Systems designs wide-span manual shelving structures engineered to resolve complex stock handling layouts. Manufactured at our primary plant in Virar East, Thane, Ketan Long Span Racks utilize heavy-gauge cold-rolled mild steel (MS) Z-beam and step-beam profiles. These profiles are specifically calculated to control horizontal beam deflection across wide, unobstructed spans under full load.
Our ISO 9001:2015 certified production lines maintain tight structural tolerances across upright roll-forming and beam connector welding. Operating under GSTIN 27ALXPG1562F1ZW, Ketan Storage Systems delivers factory-direct material handling equipment to major distribution networks across Bhiwandi, Vadodara, and Pune.
Ketan Long Span Racks optimize vertical warehouse footprint by supporting elevated walkway structures and multi-tier picking levels. By incorporating multi-tier catwalks directly into the long-span frame layout, facilities can multiply manual picking locations without incurring civil construction costs.
Field-proven wide span shelving installations engineered for archival repositories, commercial goods warehouses, and heavy wholesale distribution centers.
Wide-entry, continuous shelving runs designed to house high-density document boxes and mobile aisle file systems.
Clear-entry wide shelving designed for manual handling of boxed furniture, large electronics, and textiles.
Heavy-duty steel-decked shelving engineered for unpalletized industrial tools, fittings, and heavy equipment cartons.
Detailed engineering clarifications for warehouse consultants, operations directors, and procurement managers.
