About Us - Leading Wire Shelving Industry - UTILITY BASICS

About Utility Basics

At Utility Basics, we believe storage should be as strong as it is smart. As a family-owned business based in the U.S., we’re proud to deliver heavy-duty wire shelving solutions that combine durability, functionality, and a clean, modern look.

Our shelving is crafted in Taiwan using premium-grade, heavy-gauge carbon steel, ensuring industry-leading strength and long-lasting performance. Whether for commercial or residential use, every product is designed to meet the high demands of warehouses, hospitals, garages, restaurants, and homes alike.

Our Story

Utility Basics began with a simple goal: to raise the bar for utility shelving. We noticed that traditional wire racks often fell short — flimsy, inflexible, and poorly designed. So, we set out to change that.

Working with experienced engineers and top-tier manufacturers in Taiwan, we developed shelving systems that are both tough and tailored — built to hold up to 4,000 lbs with leveling feet, and ready to roll with our premium TPE caster wheels. These racks are built to perform in high-demand environments without compromising on appearance or efficiency.

Quality & Safety First

All of our shelving units are NSF / ANSI Standard 2 certified, meaning they meet strict standards for safety, hygiene, and food-grade applications. Whether you're storing ingredients or industrial tools, you can count on certified reliability.

Designed for Your Space

Every space is different — and your shelving should adapt to that. That’s why our units are fully customizable with adjustable shelves at 1-inch intervals, making them ideal for evolving storage needs. From compact apartment kitchens to bustling medical labs, Utility Basics fits right in.

Fast Shipping, Family Values

We ship fast, with all orders fulfilled directly from our U.S. warehouse, and we’re always here to support you with personalized customer care. Because at Utility Basics, we treat our customers like family — and we’re committed to helping you organize your space with confidence and quality.
