Long-term evidence storage has never been made more efficient. Spacesaver's new patent-pending ActivRAC mobilized storage system is able to eliminate space-wasting aisles and “compress” (or compact) the stored evidence into a much smaller footprint when compared with a stationary storage systems.
Spacesaver® recently introduced ActivRAC™ Mobilized Storage, a full line of space-saving storage systems that gives property and evidence personnel with long-term evidence storage responsibilities the ability to increase their capacity for meeting organizational and chain of custody objectives without having to expand their existing facilities – and at the same time – uncover new opportunities to improve security of the items being stored and productivity of those storing and distributing the items.
With ActivRAC Mobilized Storage, otherwise stationary (or fixed) rows of pallet racking are mounted on carriages and mobilized. The carriages, which can also be equipped with shelving and cabinets, travel on wheels mated to a rail system. By moving side to side, the patent-pending system is able to eliminate space-wasting aisles and “compress” (or compact) the stored materials into a much smaller footprint when compared with a stationary system – yet provide 100 percent access whenever needed.
The Spacesaver line of mobilized storage systems includes motorized, electric push button and
mechanical-assist manual operation systems customized to each application. The line consists of the ActivRAC 7 and patent-pending ActivRAC 16 and ActivRAC 30 models with 7,000, 16,000, and 30,000 pound per carriage section capacity, respectively.
An ActivRAC mobilized storage system requires just one moving aisle that opens and closes to provide fast, easy access to property and evidence storage. The system can replace an existing stationary racking/shelving system altogether, or be equipped with existing racking/shelving. When compared with a conventional stationary system, ActivRAC systems can give users up to 100 percent more capacity within the same footprint of the Property Room. Or, users can maintain current storage levels, but occupy up to 50 percent less floor space. With an ActivRAC system, users can:
A. Free up space and essentially transform otherwise dead storage space into useful space.
B. Place materials closer to the point of use as part of a de-centralized storage scheme for streamlined processes and improved productivity.
C. Better organized storage since they can be easily housed in a centralized spot for more efficient processes.
D. Effectively manage the continued trend toward storing more and more items in the Property Room.
E. Reduce the need for expansions and building of additional facilities.
Fast-aisle opening cycle times help to maintain or improve productivity – which is in addition to the inherent productivity gains of using a system to store items closer to the point of use. The systems also are equipped with a host of robust safety features. Additionally, ActivRAC Mobilized Storage supports sustainability initiatives given its ability to minimize the need for facility expansions or new construction. The system’s carriages are also manufactured from recycled steel.
ActivRAC systems are sold through an independent network of handpicked and highly trained distributors who are experienced in space planning and storage processes of property and evidence.
Local distributors work in tandem with end-users, architects and local building authorities to properly evaluate each application and recommend the most appropriate long-term evidence storage solution.
