01 / COMPONENT PLANNING
What is a starter bay?
A starter bay describes the initial assembly used to begin a shelving row. The exact component set must come from the selected series rather than a generic diagram.
- Confirm the complete starter component list.
- Check independent stability and fixing conditions.
02 / COMPONENT PLANNING
What is an add-on bay?
An add-on bay extends a compatible row. Some systems share a support between adjacent bays; others use a different connection arrangement. The selected supplier must confirm the actual structure.
- Confirm shared supports and connection parts.
- Do not assume an add-on bay is freestanding.
03 / COMPONENT PLANNING
Count rows before counting bays
Breaking one continuous run into several separate rows can change the starter, end and connection components. Give the supplier a row-by-row plan.
- Identify each separate row.
- Record bays per row, side count and end displays.
04 / COMPONENT PLANNING
Check ends and extensions
End panels, end caps, reinforcement and later extensions need compatibility review. Retain the series and drawing revision so future changes can be checked.
- Document how the row ends are supported.
- Keep approved drawings and component references.
