Just recently we have seen an increase in customers requiring mesh cages. For some businesses, they are a warehouse essential as they are versatile and can be used for many different storage requirements and in many different environments.
The most obvious use of mesh cages is for the protection of high-value stock, safeguarding these products. Warehouses can be sectioned off accordingly with secure access given to specific members of staff. High-value stock can range from large industrial machinery to retail products, alcohol, technology and much more. Secure storage of these products is critical as part of the supply chain process.
Data security
Some businesses rely on heavy technical and data usage for the processing of orders and the running or automation of their warehouse. We would strongly advise that any hardware or technology is protected from potential accidental tampering, which could result in costly downtime or business interruption. By using mesh caging and creating a secure area within your warehouse and limiting access, the possibility of any issues is greatly reduced.
Protecting your stock
High-end retail and technology products, once out of the warehouse and delivered in-store, are stored in a stockroom which is usually protected by a mesh cage for additional security. Laptops, mobile phones and luxury retail products are all attractive to potential thieves so usually a dummy product is displayed on the shop floor to deter theft.
Creating safe spaces for medication and controlled substances.
Keeping medication and controlled substances out of harm’s way is critical. Hospitals, pharmaceutical manufacturers and suppliers should always have a safe secure area for the storage of these goods to ensure they are adhering to Government guidelines and regulations. The installation of caged mesh partitioning is a safe and extremely secure solution, specifically dedicated personnel access can be granted and secure locking systems can be in place for extra protection.
Safe protection of machinery
We often find that businesses use wire mesh cages for the storage of large machinery that can be dangerous should they end up in the hands of those not trained to drive them correctly. Restricting access to these machines is imperative for safety, mesh cages are not only there to provide security but they also offer unrestricted airflow for cooling and ventilation. We can provide coloured mesh cages which will improve the visibility of dangerous areas within the workspace and prevent injuries.
Admin safety
Mesh cages and partitions can be used for the storage of essential, financial and sensitive data. Protecting your office paperwork is just as important as protecting any other high-value products you may store and want limited access to.
There are many benefits to businesses using wire mesh cages to protect their goods and valuables. We have outlined a few below;
Mesh cages are hardwearing, manufactured from steel the cages are available in a coloured powder coating for interior and exterior use. Coloured coatings allow you to reflect your brand or, segment off specific areas of the warehouse with each colour representing a specific area.
Without ventilation some items can degenerate, whilst in storage and waiting for distribution, mesh cages are the perfect solution for these goods to be stored. Visibility of stock means it is easy to manage quantities and rotation and gives you transparency as to who is going in and out of the cage – keeping theft to a minimum.
They are also easy to move, expand and reconfigure if your business requirements change in the future and are extremely cost-effective. Overall, wire mesh cages will benefit your warehouse operation and the storage of your goods and products.
