LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug equipment before cleaning. Remove debris and disassemble parts. Prepare a mild detergent solution with warm water and measured detergent per instructions; use non-abrasive cloths. Scrub grease from ovens, vents, and shelving; rinse with clean water and dry with lint-free towels. Clean condenser coils and replace worn seals. Sanitize food-contact surfaces with an approved sanitizer at labeled concentration to prevent sickness and ensure compliance.#@@#Additional Info#@#Metro SM862448-Kit SmartLever base kit features a 52-1/4"W x 28-1/2"D x 86-3/8"H epoxy-coated steel frame for 48"W x 24"D Metro shelves.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#
Equip high-capacity storage areas with a durable, NSF certified shelving base designed for demanding food service and institutional environments. This Smartlever base kit meets rigorous operational needs while simplifying assembly and installation in kitchens, pantries, hospitals, and storerooms. Facility managers will find that the kit balances load capacity, corrosion protection, and compatibility with standard Metro shelves to support organized and efficient operations.
#@@# Uprights and Stability#@#
Two uprights and two legs form the structural spine, providing predictable lateral and vertical support for installed shelving. Designers specified heavy gauge steel to maintain alignment under repeated loading and to integrate seamlessly with standard Smartlever shelf systems.
#@@# Load Capacity Assurance#@#
Engineers rated the starter unit at 2800 pounds total capacity, allowing multiple full-size sheet pans, bulk supplies, or equipment to remain supported without excessive deflection. Operations that move high volumes benefit from this quantified load limit when planning storage layouts effectively.
#@@# Corrosion Resistant Finish#@#
Epoxy coated steel protects metal surfaces from moisture and cleaning agents common in commercial kitchens. Maintenance teams will experience reduced surface degradation and fewer touch-up cycles compared with uncoated alternatives, ensuring longevity and reliability.
#@@# Modular Compatibility#@#
The kit accommodates 48 inch by 24 inch Metro shelves, enabling straightforward expansion using compatible shelving components. Procurement managers gain flexibility to scale storage footprints by adding sections while maintaining uniform shelf spacing and load distribution, enhancing overall efficiency.
#@@# Compact Footprint Design#@#
The overall footprint measures 52.25 inches wide by 28.5 inches deep with an overall height of 86.38 inches, optimizing vertical storage in rooms with limited floor area.
