Lozier Wall Section Stabilizers

Lozier Widespan shelving is designed for heavier loads and wider bay spans, typically 4 feet to 8 feet, making it the correct choice for bulk case-pack storage, receiving areas, and high-capacity backroom builds. Lozier S-Series shelving covers lighter stockroom applications on narrower spans and is not engineered for the same load ratings or bay widths as Widespan. If your product weight or bay width requirements exceed what S-Series is rated for, Widespan is the appropriate system.

Start by identifying the finish code on your existing uprite frames, either PLT (Platinum) or CHR (Charcoal), and measure the frame depth and beam width currently installed. Widespan uprite frames are specified as paired units by height and depth, so ordering individual uprights will not integrate correctly with an existing Widespan run. Confirm the beam width matches the existing bay spacing before ordering, as mixing widths creates structural and reconfiguration problems across the run.

Lozier Widespan shelf supports are compatible with wire decking, particle board decking, and steel decking, but each decking type requires the correct support spacing to achieve the rated load capacity. Wire decking is the most common choice in receiving and staging areas because it allows visibility and airflow, while steel decking is preferred for heavier concentrated loads. Specify your decking type at the time of order so that shelf support spacing recommendations are correct for your application.

Standard Lozier Widespan components in PLT and CHR finishes ship at standard lead times, but any special catalog color outside those two finishes carries an 8 to 10 week production lead time. For new backroom builds requiring a non-standard finish, that timeline needs to be built into the project schedule before construction begins. Replacement orders for damaged components should specify PLT or CHR whenever possible to avoid extended wait times.
