Stainless Steel Spec SheetProduct Description
The Designline medium duty wall shelf is a straightforward, workhorse piece of back-of-house storage designed for commercial kitchen environments. Constructed from grade 430 stainless steel throughout, the shelf runs on pre-drilled folded steel gusset brackets that fix directly to the wall, providing a clean and accessible surface for utensils, containers, and lighter equipment. The shelf itself features a turned-down edge on three faces and a rear upstand, which helps to retain items during busy service periods and simplifies cleaning.
In day-to-day kitchen use, this type of shelf earns its place by keeping countertops and prep surfaces clear. Whether positioned above a prep table, alongside a cooking line, or in a dry store, it provides reliable overhead storage that holds up to the humidity, grease, and general wear typical of a working kitchen. The gusset bracket design is a proven construction method — it offers a solid cantilever fixing without the bulk of box-section framing, which keeps the shelf profile neat and easy to clean around.
Practical considerations worth noting before ordering:
- Wall fixings are not supplied — ensure you have appropriate fixings for your wall substrate
- Available in lengths from 600 mm up to 2400 mm, all at a standard 300 mm depth
- Additional gusset brackets are included as shelf length increases, maintaining load integrity
- The 300 mm depth suits lighter storage; it is not intended for heavy equipment loads
- Grade 430 stainless steel is well suited to dry and semi-dry storage areas
This shelf is a practical choice for small to medium kitchens, café back bars, or any operation needing organised wall-mounted storage on a sensible budget. For kitchens with heavier storage demands or where a greater shelf depth is required, a heavier-duty option may be worth considering.
If you are planning a run of shelving across multiple bays or need advice on spacing and load suitability, the team are happy to talk it through before you place an order.

Stainless Steel Spec SheetFrequently Asked Questions
- Designline includes additional gusset support brackets as the shelf length increases, so longer spans maintain adequate load support. If you are planning a particularly heavy load or have a specific bracket spacing requirement, it is worth checking with us before ordering.
- No — fixings are not supplied. The brackets are pre-drilled, so you will need to source appropriate fixings for your wall type, whether that is masonry, blockwork, or a studded partition. For tiled walls, it is worth planning fixing positions carefully before installation.
- For lighter items such as containers, utensils, dry goods, and small equipment, 300 mm depth is generally practical and keeps items within easy reach. If you need to store larger or heavier equipment, a shelf with a greater depth or heavier-duty rating would be a more appropriate choice.
