The backbone of your entire setup 💪
If your shelves are the muscles… these are the bones 😄
Our Double Uprights are what give your system strength, height, flexibility, and that solid “this isn’t going anywhere” feeling.
They are used between bays, allowing you to expand from a 1 bay setup into 2, 3, 4, 5 bays and beyond.
Whether you’re building small or going full workshop mode… this is where the magic happens.
📏 Available Standard Sizes
Our Double Uprights start at 650mm and go all the way up to 2700mm, giving you loads of flexibility to build your setup around your actual space.
Choose from:
• 650mm
• 900mm
• 1200mm
• 1800mm
• 2100mm
• 2400mm
• 2700mm
👉 Mix and match heights to suit your space perfectly — yes, you can get properly creative 👀
✂️ Need a Custom Height? No Problem.
These are our standard heights, but if you need something cut to a custom size, that’s absolutely no issue.
Simply order the next size up from the height you need, and add your required cut size in the special comments at checkout.
For example:
• Need 1600mm? Order the 1800mm upright.
• Need 1472mm? Order the 1800mm upright.
• Need something lower than 900mm? Order the closest longer size and tell us what to cut it to.
We’ll cut it down so it works properly for your setup.

🔩 How It Works
Double Uprights are used in the middle of your shelving setup.
They do not go on the outside ends — that’s what Single Uprights are for.
Double Uprights allow one bay to connect to the next bay, so your shelving can keep growing.
✔️ They connect bays together
✔️ They create the middle support
✔️ They allow you to expand from 1 bay to multiple bays
✔️ They help keep your setup strong, balanced and modular
💡 Easy way to remember:
Singles = the ends
Doubles = the connection in the middle
🧠 Example Setups
1 Bay System
👉 Uses Single Uprights on the outside ends
2 Bay System
👉 Single Uprights on the outer ends
👉 Double Uprights in the middle to connect the bays
3 Bay System
👉 Single Uprights on the outer frame
👉 Double Uprights between each bay
4, 5 or more bays
👉 Just keep adding Double Uprights and shelves as you expand
That’s the beauty of modular storage — you don’t need to start from scratch every time your space changes.
🧠 Modular Like LEGO, But Built Properly 😏
This system is fully modular, so you can build around your space instead of fighting with it.
Get creative with your layout:
• Start with a 900mm section
• Step up to 1800mm or 2100mm
• Go all the way up to 2700mm
• Drop back down again on the other side
• Build stepped sections for garages, shops, offices, storerooms or workshops
You can even do something clever like:
👉 900mm uprights in the front
👉 1800mm uprights at the back
👉 Add a pegboard or display area at the back
So the front stays low and open, while the back gives you height, storage and display space.
Your space. Your setup. Your rules. 👊
