Need Storage Space? Use All-Purpose Shelvings
All-around shelving systems are available in a wide range of applications and specifications for your storage needs. You can purchase a ready for assembly unit by piece for home use from your hardware store or in large quantities for commercial or industrial use. They usually are either chrome plated and made of galvanized or stainless steel. Most models use steel wire racks.
If it is for your home garage, you can visit the nearest Home Depot and hardware shops for the latest variety of shelving. For commercial or industrial purposes, you can track down suppliers who can meet bulk customized requirements. It may require a person to person meeting between you and the supplier to discuss details. There are companies who can visit you on site if you have special needs and submit their quotes. The fastest way to do it is from the comfort of your home or office by using the yellow pages or the internet thru search engines.
On line suppliers offer a wide range of storage systems for your home, office, warehouse, industrial, retail and many more. For residential types, they have corner wire shelves and metal shelves for storing items in your kitchen pantry, utility room, garage or basement.
National suppliers and distributors of high grade heavy duty shelving usually have a wide range of easy to assemble units that can suit the industrial, warehouse, medical and office environments. They have a diverse high density storage application combining heavy gauge steel shelves, shelf supports and welded uprights with rack type structure.
You can search the websites of suppliers like Global Industrial, Quantum, Hollowell, Nexel, Edsal, Tennsco, Thunder, Kelmax, Shelving Direct and many others. Look for an ISO 9001 manufacturer to guarantee highest quality of shelves preferably with electrostatic epoxy polyester lead free powder coat finish. Scout also for suppliers having special offers.
Here are some descriptions of all-around shelves.

torque and force question?
A mass of 50kg is hung from the end of a cantilever 3m long. The cantilever weighs 6kg and is supported by a cable from the wall that is attached 0.5m from the end of the cantilever forming a 30 degree angle with the cantilever.
What is the tension in the wire?
What is the vertical and horizontal components of the force exerted by the wall on the shelf?
Danget! You gave us a statically indeterminate problem.
And with no structural information about the beam, it is impossible to solve.
Cantilever beams by definition are "clamped" at the end, and free at the other end. What can a clamp do that a pin cannot? A clamp can exert a bending torque at the clamped end, a simple support pin cannot do so.
The cantilever beam is in static equilibrium on its own. The cable serves a redundant purpose, and thus a statically indeterminate problem. Statics alone cannot solve statically indeterminate problems, elasticity must also be considered.
