Container Placement Guide
Correct placement depends on your container size. Therefore, review the guide below before ordering.
20ft containers — end racking
In a 20ft container, the QF1066 mounts at the closed container end. As a result, the remaining floor space remains clear for pallets, vehicles, or equipment. This is the most common configuration for tool and parts storage.
40ft containers — end racking only
In a 40ft container, end racking works well when the side walls remain clear. However, if you install side-run racking down the length of the 40ft container, there is not enough clearance to fit end racking at the same time.
In addition, the 40ft configuration supports racking on both sides of the container (two-tier or three-tier runs). If you want end-only racking in a 40ft container, the QF1066 fits correctly without conflict.
Side racking in 40ft containers — product selection
| Configuration | Product | Code |
|---|---|---|
| Two-tier racking — container end | Two-Tier Container End Racking | QF1065 |
| Three-tier racking — container end | Three-Tier Container End Racking | QF1066 (this product) |
| Side racking — 40ft, both sides | Two-tier or three-tier side run | Enquire |

All racking is compatible with standard ISO series 1 freight containers. Moreover, racking installs without drilling or permanent modification — the container remains fully usable after removal.
Common Applications
Trades and construction
Electricians, plumbers, and builders store consumables, hand tools, and safety gear on adjustable shelves. Furthermore, the 550 kg rating handles heavy stock without flex or failure.
Workshop and spare parts storage
Mechanics, engineers, and fleet operators use the QF1066 to organise oil, filters, fasteners, and small parts. As a result, inventory is easy to locate and restock without searching through loose boxes.
Agricultural and rural storage
Farms use the racking for chemicals, seed, and veterinary supplies. The adjustable shelf height accommodates varying drum and bag sizes without wasted vertical space.
Retail overflow and warehouse staging
Retailers and distribution businesses use container racking to stage pick-and-pack stock. Additionally, the racking removes itself cleanly when the container returns to freight duty.

Assembly Overview
The QF1066 assembles inside the container in four steps. No tools are required.
- Position the two pre-assembled end frames at the correct shelf spacing.
- Slot the beams into the frame uprights at your chosen height settings.
- Clip the safety clips onto each beam to lock the beams in place.
- Lay the 25 mm chipboard shelves across the beams on each tier.
The end frames arrive pre-assembled. Therefore, no frame construction is required on site. The full bay assembles in under 30 minutes.
