Metro Top-Track System

Metro's Top-Track High-Density Storage System can increase the storage capacity of a given area by 30% to 50%.  This system allows more storage units to fit in a defined space.  A movable, open aisle allows full access to each shelving unit, thus eliminating hard to reach or "dead" spaces.  The overhead track system guides the mobile units and opens an access aisle between any two units whenever it is needed.  The track is above the storage units enabling easy access for employees or for utility carts, simplifying the material handling task.  The Top-Track System is "ADA Compliant" and compatible with Super Erecta, Super Adjustable, Super Erecta Pro, MetroMax i and MetroMax Q shelving systems.

MetroMax i Top-Track System
This efficient utilization of space addresses the storage needs of new or growing operations. In a new facility, less square footage would have to be dedicated to storage.  In a growing operation, the Top-Track System can eliminate the need to expand the facility to handle increasing storage requirements, greatly reducing the costs associated with a growing business's needs.

& 3-Mobile Units

An infinite number of configurations and performance options are possible with the Top-Track System.  Super Erecta variants offer a variety of finishes, accessories and shelf types that may be mixed or matched.  The MetroMax i + Q System variants with Microban antimicrobial product protection, offers the ability to mix and match MetroMax i + Q shelves and posts based on the application and economical considerations.  Both i + Q shelf options feature removable polymer open grid shelf mats for longer-life durability and easy cleaning.  Corrosion-proof MetroMax i offers a solid shelf option and better chemical resistance.  Corrosion-resistant MetroMax Q steel posts can improve the overall rigidity of the Top-Track System in higher weight bearing applications.  MetroMax iQ accessories may be used interchangeably between the i + Q systems to customize the Top-Track System.  While all of these options and variations may seem overwhelming, our Genuine Metro Products Specialists are always available to assist you in creating optimal configurations to meet your specific requirements for both dry and wet environments.

Super Erecta Top-Track System

The Top-Track System with no floor tracks, allows utility carts to easily roll into and out of the active aisle.  Shelving units assemble in minutes.  Tracks attach to support rails on each stationary end unit and above the mobile units.  Weight capacities on mobile units are limited to 900 lbs. (410kg) and stationary units hold up to 2,000 lbs. (907kg).  The system compensates for uneven floor surfaces, however, floors should be smooth and free from large cracks or raised obstacles.

Metro Shelving Products is pleased to offer pre-configured Top-Track Systems designed for a 10'-0" x 12'-0" (3048x2658mm) room or space in your choice of Metro Shelving Systems.  One easy-order number provides you with everything required for a completely functioning Top-Track System.  Super Erecta Seismic Kits are also available.  For more information, specification assistance or special quotations, please contact our Product Specialists directly.
