Yearly inventory counts are always difficult and time consuming, especially with smaller parts. This becomes excessive when, for a variety of reasons, you need to verify stock levels on a more frequent basis; such as quarterly or monthly. However, you can increase space in your stock room and decrease the time it takes to inventory your products using modular drawer systems.
Modular drawers provide very efficient storage, creating more space for parts in your shelving units. The drawers have 100% extension, so the full depth of the drawer is visible when fully extended. So, all parts and components, whether in partitioned compartments or in plastic bins, are easily accessible for viewing and counting.
This makes inventory counts much faster and easier than working on a conventional shelving unit with plastic bins. You can also take a quick visual inventory at any time without having to pull out each shelf bin and look inside or open up a box and count the contents. Drawers in shelving also help keep inventory parts and components away from environmental dust and debris, as opposed to shelf bins that leave the contents exposed.
Modular drawer systems can be added to your existing shelving to increase the storage space you have available. The drawers are adaptable to most brands of shelving with specific adapter brackets. You can choose how much space you want to convert to drawers, using brackets from 12” to 48” in height within the shelving unit. The drawers are available to fit most standard shelf sizes and range in height from 3” to 14” high.
Drawers can be ordered in a variety of colors. So you can coordinate with existing equipment or mirror your company colors. You can also order drawers in colors to code drawers for certain types of products, making it easier to locate products. And, if you don’t want to integrate drawers into your existing shelving units, all these options are available in stand-alone locking drawer cabinets.
