A five-layer steel storage rack measuring 45 x 90 x 180 cm is 19.500 KD at Bab Al-Saif, and its record states 150 kg per rack. If the room is a kitchen or a bathroom rather than a store, the wheeled racks start at 11.250 KD and a stainless rack for a wash-basin top is 6.500 KD; if you only want a shelf on a wall, the bracket is 0.800 KD. This page sorts out which of those is the right answer for your room, and gives the measurements for every size we carry.
Which rack for which room?
| Where it goes | What to buy | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Store room, garage, stock room | Five-layer heavy duty rack, 45 x 90 x 180 cm | 19.500 KD |
| A corner or an alcove, height to choose | Steel rack on a 56 x 35 cm footprint, 3 to 5 layers | from 14.500 KD |
| Kitchen, laundry, bathroom | Wheeled rack, 3 to 5 tiers | from 13.500 KD |
| Beside a worktop, moved daily | Narrow wheeled cart | from 11.250 KD |
| On top of a wash basin | Stainless rack, 40 or 60 cm | 6.500 or 7.500 KD |
| Fixed to a wall, no floor space | Shelf arm brackets, 200 to 400 mm | from 0.800 KD |
| A shop floor | Single-side supermarket display rack | 30.000 KD |
| Anything that has to lock | A steel cupboard or locker instead | - |
Store-room shelving: the bolt-together steel racks
This is the open steel shelving that carries boxes, tins, files and spares in a room where nothing needs hiding and nothing needs to look pretty.
| Rack | Size | Load its record states | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Steel rack, 3 layers | 56 x 35 x 80 cm | not recorded | 14.500 KD |
| Steel rack, 4 layers | 56 x 35 x 120 cm | not recorded | 15.500 KD |
| Steel rack, 5 layers | 56 x 35 x 160 cm | not recorded | 16.500 KD |
| Heavy duty rack, 5 layers | 45 x 90 x 180 cm | 150 kg per rack | 19.500 KD |
The three-height listing is the flexible one: the same 56 x 35 cm footprint at 80 cm, 120 cm or 160 cm tall, so you buy the height that clears the window sill or fits under the stairs and pay 1.000 KD a step for it. The heavy duty rack is a different proposition — at 90 cm wide and 180 cm tall it is nearly a metre of shelf per layer, five layers deep, and it is the only one of the store-room racks whose record carries a load figure at all.
A second three-height listing carries 3, 4 and 5 layers at 14.500, 15.500 and 16.500 KD with double-sided lockable wheels and no tools needed for assembly, but records no dimensions, so bring a tape to the showroom if the gap is tight.
Wheeled racks for a kitchen, a laundry or a bathroom
Three shapes, all on castors, and the tier count is what sets the height.
| Rack | Tiers and height | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Square wheeled rack | 3 tiers, 91 cm | 13.500 KD |
| Square wheeled rack | 4 tiers, 121 cm | 14.500 KD |
| Square wheeled rack | 5 tiers, 152 cm | 16.500 KD |
| Round wheeled rack | 4 tiers, height not recorded | 13.500 KD |
| Round wheeled rack with turning baskets | 5 tiers, height not recorded | 14.250 KD |
| Stainless rack for a wash-basin top, 40 cm | Sits on the basin surround | 6.500 KD |
| Stainless rack for a wash-basin top, 60 cm | Sits on the basin surround | 7.500 KD |
The square listing is the one to read if height is the constraint: 91 cm clears a worktop, 121 cm reaches a wall cabinet and 152 cm fills the wall. The round rack's baskets turn, which is the difference people are buying when they pick it over the square one at a similar price.
Carts and narrow racks, by what they measure
These are the ones that go into a narrow gap beside a fridge or a washing machine, and the measurement matters more than the shelf count. Ordered by price:
| Cart | Dimensions | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Wheeled storage rack | 85 x 26 x 44 cm | 11.250 KD |
| Wheeled storage rack | 88 x 45 x 29.5 cm | 12.750 KD |
| Wheeled storage rack | 44 wide x 27 deep x 104 cm high | 15.250 KD |
| Kitchen cart with take-away baskets, 90 kg load | 94 x 37 x 30 cm | 15.500 KD |
| Steel kitchen rack on wheels | 124 x 70 x 40 cm | 20.000 KD |
The 15.500 KD cart is the one with a recorded load figure, 90 kg, with lockable wheels and baskets that lift out. The 26 cm and 27 cm depths on the two shallowest are the numbers to measure against, because the depth is the figure that decides whether a cart goes into the gap beside a fridge or a washing machine at all.
One listing in the range is not placed on this page. A three-layer steel kitchen rack at 18.500 KD records two figures, 183 x 120 cm, with nothing to say which is the height and no third dimension at all, so there is nothing here to compare it on. Ask for it by name at the counter.
A shelf on a wall instead of a rack on the floor
If the floor is full, a wall bracket costs under a dinar. One listing, five lengths, and the length is the shelf depth it will carry:
| Bracket length | Price |
|---|---|
| 200 mm | 0.800 KD |
| 250 mm | 0.900 KD |
| 300 mm | 1.000 KD |
| 350 mm | 1.100 KD |
| 400 mm | 1.350 KD |
A pair of 300 mm brackets is 2.000 KD, which is what a 30 cm deep shelf costs to hang before you buy the board. They are in furniture fittings with the hinges and the drawer slides. Fixing them into a Kuwait block wall needs a plug and a masonry bit rather than a wood screw — the sizes are in which screw do you need.
A rack stores; a trolley moves
The two get asked for together, so it is worth being plain about the difference. A rack is for things that stay put. If what you want is wheels under a load that leaves the room, that is a hand trolley or platform truck, from 6.950 KD for the 100 kg foldable one, and the whole range from 100 kg up to a three tonne pallet truck is priced in forklifts and pallet trucks in Kuwait.
Questions people actually ask
How much are steel storage shelves in Kuwait?
From 14.500 KD for a three-layer steel rack on a 56 x 35 cm footprint, 80 cm tall. The four-layer at 120 cm is 15.500 KD and the five-layer at 160 cm is 16.500 KD. The wide heavy duty rack, 45 x 90 x 180 cm with five layers and a recorded 150 kg per rack, is 19.500 KD.
What weight will a storage rack hold?
Only two listings in the range record a figure at all. The 45 x 90 x 180 cm five-layer heavy duty rack states 150 kg per rack, and the 94 x 37 x 30 cm kitchen cart states 90 kg. Every other rack here records no load figure, so this page does not give one for them — ask at the counter rather than assuming.
Why does the same 45 x 90 x 180 cm rack show two prices?
Because two listings carry it: 19.500 KD and 16.500 KD. The 19.500 KD listing is the one whose record states 150 kg per rack; the 16.500 KD listing records the rack's own weight, 15 kg, and a height-adjustable shelf, and no load figure. They are the same stated dimensions at different builds, so it is worth asking which one you are getting rather than reading the gap as a mistake.
Which rack fits in a kitchen?
For a worktop-height unit, the three-tier square wheeled rack at 91 cm tall, 13.500 KD. For a gap beside the fridge, the 85 x 26 x 44 cm cart at 11.250 KD or the 44 x 27 x 104 cm one at 15.250 KD. For the basin surround, the stainless rack at 6.500 KD for 40 cm or 7.500 KD for 60 cm.
Do you have a rack for hanging clothes?
A hanging rail rather than shelves is a cupboard question rather than a rack question, and the one-door steel locker with a cloth hanger is priced in steel cupboards and lockers in Kuwait. Nothing on this page carries a rail.
How tall is a five-layer rack?
It depends which one. The 56 x 35 cm steel rack is 160 cm at five layers, the square wheeled rack 152 cm at five tiers, and the wide heavy duty rack 180 cm. Measure the ceiling clearance and the door you have to carry it through, in that order.
Also useful: storage racks and steel shelving for the whole range, steel cupboards and lockers when it has to lock, warehouse equipment for the trolleys, pallet trucks and platform scales, and furniture fittings for the wall brackets. The showroom is at Shuwaikh Plaza on Khalifa Al-Jassim Street in Shuwaikh Industrial, with delivery across Kuwait, cash on delivery, card and Deema instalments.
