Creating flexible space in a church’s sanctuary

A church needed to create flexible space for multiple uses. They wanted to find a way to move the heavy marble altar out toward the congregation for services, and then move it back against the stained glass wall when plays, gatherings, or other activities were planned in the front part of the church.

Helping a museum save time, money, and natural resources

The construction of a new addition provided a large natural history museum with the opportunity to upgrade shelving for its ichthyology collection. The collection would need to be housed in a temporary location during the lengthy renovation and construction project.

This posed a challenge: the temporary location had tall ceilings, but the permanent location would have lower ceilings and would be fitted with high-density carriages.

Museum staff worked with the local Spacesaver consultant to design a shelving solution that would meet the needs of the collection and also overcome the project’s logistical challenges.

Improving efficiency and organization in a university hospital

A university hospital’s food service storage area was cramped and crowded, with dry goods and non-perishable foods stored on wire shelving with casters. Staff often needed to roll several shelving units out of the way in order to reach the items they needed. They were also running out of space in the storage area, which was located in a basement with no room to expand.When the storage area flooded during a hurricane surge, management saw an opportunity to completely re-think their approach to storage.

Keeping large protective suits secure and organized 

Spacesaver is proud to help protect military personnel and their gear, and our in-house engineering teams and custom manufacturing capabilities enable us to create secure solutions that go far beyond standard locker options. These capabilities are particularly important when creating storage solutions for large, expensive bomb suits and dive suits.

Keeping gear organized and secure is essential because the suits’ effectiveness is compromised—and the wearer’s life is put at risk—if even one component is missing or damaged. And because the suits and accessories can cost tens of thousands of dollars, the military needs to protect its investment from loss, damage, or theft.
