Our take on the Melmine Metal Wire Shelving Unit Adjustable Storage Rack

The Melmine is a black wire utility rack sold in 3-shelf and 5-shelf versions, 35.6 inches wide, 14 inches deep and 72 inches tall. Wire shelves let air move and keep dust from settling, and the shelf height adjusts so you can fit tall bins. Each shelf is rated around 156 lb, which is fine for boxes, pantry goods and garage supplies but not for engines or tile. It is a plain, no-frills rack: it competes on capacity and adjustability rather than looks, and owners of similar wire racks often note that small items fall through the gaps without liners.

Questions and answers

How much weight can each shelf hold?

Each shelf is rated at about 156 lb. Spread weight evenly across the shelf, since a heavy load in one corner stresses the wire and posts more than a distributed one.

Can I change the shelf heights?

Yes. The shelves adjust along the posts, so you can set one tall gap for bins and tighter gaps for cans or boxes. Set the heights before loading it.

Do I need shelf liners?

For cans, jars and small parts, yes. The wire gaps let small items tip through. Thin plastic or hardboard liners also give a flat surface for stacking.

Is the 5-shelf version worth it over the 3-shelf?

The 5-shelf version uses the same 72-inch height and adds two more shelves, so it stores more in the same floor space. The 3-shelf version leaves taller open gaps, which suits bulky items.

Does it come with casters or wall anchors?

No. It is a stationary rack. If you need to roll it, add a caster set sized to the posts, and anchor the top to the wall in garages or areas with kids and pets.

Will it fit in a closet or narrow space?

At 14 inches deep and 35.6 inches wide, it fits most closets and along garage walls. Measure doorways and turns before moving it assembled.
