Shelving is what makes a walk-in cooler or freezer efficient, organized and an ideal space to store your

products. It’s essential to understand what is being stored to maximize space in a walk-in.

Further, in the moist air environment of a walk-in cooler, rust and corrosion are inevitable. Epoxy or

Stainless Steel shelving may cost more upfront, but will last much longer and avoid issues with health

inspections.

Metro offers a wide variety of shelving to suit the needs of

any walk-in cooler or freezer. Included in their offering is the

track system to maximize your walk-in box by using a track

on the top or bottom of each shelf set that would roll back

and forth to gain access to the internal shelves as needed.

Metro offers a shelf unit for every need & budget from the

top of the line MetroMax 4 - All-Plastic Removable Shelf

Mats that are 100% Rust-Proof. These shelves have a max

capacity of 800lbs and a life time warranty. The Super

& Grey as well as stainless steel, this all-purpose shevling is
