Question: How many shelf openings are in each unit?
Answer: Shelves should be adjustable, minimum 3 (4 including the base level).
Question: Our doors add 1” to the shelving, is the 13” D measurement including the door?
Answer: Yes, the 13” D includes the door.
Question: Is this a ground floor installation?
Answer: Yes.
Question: Is there a loading dock available?
Answer: No. We have a forklift and staff who can unload from a truck.
Question: The hinged glass doors we typically provide are 63” high. Because we need to include bases with our static units that would mean the overall height of the shelving would be 64-1/4” high. The specs very specifically call for 62-3/4” high shelving units, can you confirm if this solution would be OK?
Answer: No, the height is non- negotiable due to fire suppression system.
Question: The double wall construction requirement is causing issues, what will be stored in the shelving? The glass doors seem to only be available in laminate shelving. I wanted to send this out so you are aware of the different obstacles it seems that we have come up with for meeting the specifications.
Answer: The shelving units are to store books in a research library. They cannot be laminate.
