A small simple racking job for us! Most customers install their own racking, this job was a national funeral provider that prefer we do it.

We offer value mild steel finished in textured powder coat paint as shown here or a premium stainless steel version that stands up better in damp cold environments and won’t rust.

Here we supplied a 3 bay racking compromising of 2bays semi obese W:700mm rollers and 1bay 2 tier bariatric with reinforced w:1000mm rollers. The 2tier bay was designed to finish low for the side wall evaporator that hangs down.

Our construction is a robust and sturdy modular build, 40×40 x 2.6mm steel using bolts and lasered brackets with drilled feet allowing fixture to the floor, we fit a rear bump stop bar to protect the rear wall and we put a gentle but sufficient rear decline in the racking so trays and coffins of all lengths will retain under gravity. Some others use less rigid 20x40mm ERW tube, rely on brackets that you install with a rubber mallet, these are much cheaper materials and fixings, yet our customers tell us we are still best value. Competitors multi bays are often individual bays (no strength in numbers as per a modular fixed build), all can result in very wobbly racks, which can  worsen as time and level of use go on. They also lack a rear bump stop bar or use a thin pin which can easily damage coffins. They make racking level but if the floor is out slightly trays and coffins can try to roll out, while they use tray retaining pins, this is no good if the coffin is longer than the rack .

In addition we supplied a bariatric trolley, extra width top with double ram for a 55stone capacity (65stone also available) for use with wider trays and coffins.
