Metro MQ74PE shelving posts

The Metro MQ74PE is a set of four epoxy-coated steel posts in a taupe finish. Each post stands 74 3/16 inches tall and is 1 3/4 inches wide. They are designed as starter components for building wire shelving units in commercial or residential spaces.

Upgrading from shorter or uncoated posts

These posts replace shorter uprights when taller vertical storage is required. The 18-gauge steel construction and NSF certification make the jump worthwhile for environments demanding durability and sanitation compliance. ISO 9001-9002 standards indicate consistent manufacturing quality.

Suited for custom shelving builds

This four-pack suits installers assembling new shelving systems or extending existing Metro configurations with wedge-lock adjustment. Buyers needing posts with different heights, finishes, or load ratings should look at other options. The fixed 74-inch height limits use in low-clearance areas.

Questions about this item

What size posts and how many come in the pack?

Four steel posts, each 74 3/16 in tall and 1 3/4 in wide, are included in the 4-pack.

How do the shelves lock onto the 18-gauge posts using the wedge system?

Insert the wedge clips into the numbered grooves on each post, then tap the shelf corners down until the wedges seat fully — skipping the tap leaves shelves loose.

Will the epoxy-coated steel posts need recoating or rust protection over time?

The epoxy coating is designed for the life of the shelving; no recoating or additional rust protection is required under normal indoor use.
