🔧 DIY Tips
Assembling retail shelving yourself? Here's what matters:
🔧 What you'll need
- Rubber mallet
- Spirit level
- Allen keys (usually)
- Helper for tall units
📐 Assembly tips
- Lay out all parts first
- Follow sequence in instructions
- Don't fully tighten until aligned
- Check level at each stage
- Align with adjacent units
⚠️ Common issues
- Parts in wrong order

💡 Pro tip: Gondola shelving connects unit to unit. Assemble in final position - you won't be moving a row of connected, loaded shelving later.
Rather leave it to a pro? No problem - that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of shelving?
Gondola, wall-mounted, pegboard, wire shelving - most retail display systems. Specialist cold storage and pharmaceutical racking may need specific installers.
Do you supply shelving?
Assembly only - we build what's been delivered. Happy to advise on suppliers if needed, but we focus on getting units assembled properly.
Can you rearrange existing shelving?
Yes - reconfiguring layouts, adding bays, adjusting shelf heights. Retail needs change and shelving needs to adapt.
What about overnight work?
Evening and weekend assembly often works best to avoid trading disruption. Discuss timing when booking.
