Tips & Tactics
Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide

• Identify and verify the makes and model before you buy. Many brand components might look similar but are not interchangeable. This guide will allow you to get it right the 1st time.
• When comparing rack from different suppliers, use weight to determine if you're comparing equal materials. If one dealer's quote looks vastly different from the others, chances are he's not quoting you the same material as the rest of them.
• When it comes to storage racking, keep used material in mind. Often you can save up to 50% on equivalent material when you purchase used instead of new.
