After the success of the initial installation (2400bays of static and mobile shelving) , MS Storage were approached again by Plymouth NHS Trust to add additional storage to a new extension on site. To achieve the required capacity a mezzanine floor was installed along with 762 bays of static and mobile shelving.

The logistics of the installation were paramount to the smooth running of the whole hospital project. Working alongside a main contractor we were able to meet the client’s requirements in line with all DDA and Building regulations to the agreed costs and time frames.

MS Storage were tasked with providing a new Medical Records library containing 2.4 km of steel shelving for Plymouth Hospitals NHS Trust.  Based at Bush Park, Estover, Plymouth brought together the records management of the Primary Care Trust and Plymouth Hospitals Records service into one central location. The Library contains 2,000 bays of mobile and static shelving housing up to 1,000,000 individual Patient Records. The system was carefully designed utilising both the existing and new shelving, which was dismantled and re installed onto mobile bases. This increased the storage capacity of the existing library by a massive 62 per cent.

Working in close cooperation with NHS staff, the records were still made available for use 24/7 during the installation programme, which was completed in agreed phases over a 4 month period.

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.
