MS Storage were asked to design a storage solution within a basement area with restricted height and other issues together with very severe access problems in order to help facilitate an off ice move for the company of over 300 staff whose items needed to be contained securely within the new basement archive whilst the move took place.

From initial call to completion the project took only 3 weeks to complete. MS Storage designed and installed a high density mobile shelving system within the basement location taking into account several design issues around low ceilings, radiators, air conditioning ducting and very uneven concrete floor. The project was completed to the great satisfaction of the client who was delighted with the finished storage solution and enabled the move of 300 staff to take place on time.

An additional benefit our modular systems provides to our clients we later retro fitted steel lockable doors at the end users request, to individual storage bays to allow complete security to sensitive materials held within the storage system whilst still allowing staff access to non-sensitive material contained within the same storage system.

Barnsley Metropolitan District Council selected MS Storage to supply a high-density mobile shelving system into the new county archive building at Shortwood Villas, Barnsley. MS Storage designed the scheme to match the Councils exact requirement and the footprint of the new building.

The system provides a total of 1,093 bays of shelving, which will be used to house the County Records centrally in one location. The archive was designed in close consultation with the Council Property and Procurement Department and the Council Archivists team to comply with a detailed and stringent specification. The end result is complete client satisfaction with the design, appearance and operation of the new shelving system.

Designed using strong robust shelving and precision engineered mobile bases, the system will provide the Council with a modern, state of the art high density mobile storage system for the safe and proper storage of these vital county records for years to come.
