Q. Which Storage Solution Uses the Least Space for Small Parts?

A. The Storage Solution which uses the least space for small parts is Drawer Storage Cabinets with adjustable drawer partitions.

Small parts storage, often required in spare parts stores and some workshops, is very easily optimised by considering storage volume. In a warehouse where storage is careless, small spare parts is most regularly just thrown onto a shelf in a tub or box of some kind and it is rare to find a scenario like this where there isn’t dead space equalling 3 times the actual tub size around it on the shelf.

This is not the case when small parts are stored in drawers with adjustable internal partitions.

It is obvious that, when considering volume, you have to think about the width, depth and height of your storage location. With a partitioned drawer from BAC Systems, you can configure all three dimensions quite easily.

Firstly, the height is most easily accounted for by selecting your drawer height. Once this is done, you choose the spacing between the fixed steel partitions that run back to front within the drawer. Finally, you slot in tough ABS or metallic dividers between the partitions. These dividers can be moved forwards or backwards to account for variances in the volume an item requires over the years.

With these adjustable dividers within drawers whose height you can specifically select, you will find that there is nearly no dead space within your storage cabinets. At BAC Systems, we often find that BAC Drawer Storage Cabinets can decrease your storage footprint for small-to-medium components to a third, or even less, of what your shelving originally required.
