Description

Meet the space saving stillage that makes picking a breeze. Our Half Height Front Metal Stillage gives you all the strength of a full sheet sided unit, with a lowered front for fast, ergonomic access to stock. Designed, engineered, and built in-house in the UK by our skilled team, it’s a proven workhorse for forestry, fencing, scaffolding, manufacturing, and warehouse operations.

Why choose our half height front stillage?

• Easy access, faster picks – the low front lets operators load and unload without over reaching.

• Safer handling – reduced lift height helps cut strain and improves line side efficiency.

• Clear stock visibility – see contents at a glance to speed up counts and changeovers.

• Box section strength – four corner posts and frame in box section steel (not angle), delivering higher Safe Working Load and superior durability.

• 3 mm steel throughout the frame for long service life in demanding environments.

• Stackable up to 4 high (evenly loaded), maximizing floor space and improving organization.

• 1,000 kg load capacity (evenly distributed) as standard.

• Sheet sided body keeps loose items contained and protected during transport and storage.

*Please note: Dimensions shown on drawings/spec sheets exclude the stillage foot. The foot projects +40 mm each side (add 80 mm overall to width and depth).
