Frequently Asked Questions
Why do museums need specialized storage solutions?
Museums require specialized storage to safeguard their collections from potential damage and environmental threats while optimizing space and facilitating access for research and exhibitions. This ensures the longevity and integrity of valuable artifacts.
How can Spacesaver help optimize museum space?
Spacesaver’s flexible manufacturing processes enable the creation of shelving and art racks of virtually any height, allowing museums to take full advantage of vertical space. Additionally, we can design storage systems that comply with applicable codes while making the best use of available space, even around structural obstacles like columns and ductwork.
Can museum storage solutions be phased over time?
Absolutely. Part of the space planning process involves projecting future growth. For instance, rails for high-density systems can be installed during construction, with carriages added later as collections grow and funding becomes available.
