Our Products
Flexible Storage Solutions
Document Carousel
Our Document Carousel systems provide high-density rotary storage for documents, files, small parts, drawings, media and components. These powered carousels deliver items directly to the operator at an ergonomic pick height, cutting retrieval times while saving valuable floor space.
Times Two®
The Times Two® rotary filing system doubles your filing capacity within the same floor space. Its unique rotating design provides easy access from both sides, allowing two people to file simultaneously. Ideal for offices looking to maximise storage without expanding their footprint, it also keeps filing quick and efficient during busy periods.
Mobile Shelving
Our mobile shelving systems run on floor-mounted tracks, allowing rows of shelving to be compacted together and opened when needed. This eliminates wasted aisle space and can increase storage capacity by up to 100%. Perfect for archives, libraries and any space-constrained environment, the modular bays can be configured to suit any room and storage requirements.
Folders
We supply a comprehensive range of filing folders designed to work seamlessly with our storage systems. From lateral filing pockets to suspension files, our folders are built for durability and easy retrieval, helping keep your documents organised and accessible.
Colour Coding
Our colour coding systems assign unique colour combinations to files, enabling instant visual identification and reducing misfiling. Labels are over-laminated to resist wear, while LabelsAnywhere allows you to print coded labels directly from your desk.
A Smarter Alternative to Traditional Filing Cabinets
Most offices still rely on four-drawer filing cabinets, which spread paper across the floor while leaving valuable vertical space unused. A powered carousel uses the full height between floor and ceiling, bringing the right shelf to you at the touch of a button.
This frees ample space for desks rather than aisles and helps reduce clutter. One office storage unit accommodates folders, box files and small equipment together, allowing you to store items of different sizes without separate office storage systems.
Secure Records and Controlled Access
Personnel files and client records need to stay private. Our carousels can be specified with an automatic door, restricted access and a full activity log. The locking facility immobilises the system out of hours, and fire protection is an option.
You can set the access levels by person or department, so the HR records and the finance files stay separate. Since you select a file and the carousel brings the right shelf to the window, your staff spend less time searching through the drawers. That also means fewer people handle the sensitive paperwork on any given day.
UK GDPR asks organisations to keep personal data secure. A lockable storage cabinet with an access log gives you proof of control over important documents. The log also supports the accountability principle, because you can show how the records have been handled.
An enclosed unit brings three further benefits:
- Privacy at desk level, because files are not on display to everyone walking past
- Clean lines across the office floor, which matters in open-plan spaces where filing sits in view
- Safe everyday retrieval, because staff reach records from a standing position
From Site Survey to Installation
Every office files differently, so we start with how yours works now. We measure the room, count your linear filing metres and speak to daily users. That becomes a cost proposal covering the features, options and return on your investment.
A single carousel normally goes in within a day, and we stay on site while you load it and settle the workflow. We also handle servicing, repairs and office moves, alongside our automated vertical lift range and pallet dispensers and stackers. We work with single offices and large distribution centres, and we run each job from concept to completion.
Whatever you need to solve, one team surveys the site, fits the system and maintains it. The system you specify today will continue to work years from now. Contact us to talk it through.
FAQs About Office Storage Solutions
Still deciding? These are the points that tend to come up before a system gets signed off.
How do I work out how much filing space my office needs?
Filing is measured in linear metres, not by counting cabinets. Measure the width of every occupied shelf and drawer. A standard four-drawer unit holds roughly two and a half linear metres. Add an allowance for growth, and we size the shelving units to your storage needs.
Does an automated filing system work alongside digital document management?
Most offices we visit run both. Paper with a legal signature or a long retention period stays on site, while routine paperwork is scanned. We offer a filing upgrade and transfer service plus electronic document management, so records move across in stages.
Can one supplier handle both our office filing and our warehouse storage?
Yes, and it is one of the main reasons clients come to us. The same team that specifies your rotary filing also supplies automated vertical lifts for the stores and pallet dispensers for dispatch. Randex has been the UK and Ireland distributor for Compact Lift since 2006, and for Palomat since 2023. That means you access one point of contact and one service agreement covering the whole site, rather than juggling separate suppliers for the office and the warehouse.
What are the best storage options for a small office?
It depends on the shape of the room more than the size of it. If you have sufficient ceiling height to use, a document carousel gives you the most filing in the smallest footprint. Where the ceiling is low, the Times Two rotary system or a short run of mobile shelving usually works better. We would rather specify the right one after seeing the space than sell you the biggest machine.
