Why this solution for retail environments

Able Hardware designs and builds fixture frames and wire displays that stand up to daily retail traffic while presenting a clean, premium look on the sales floor. We combine automatic/robotic MIG for carbon steel with TIG where cosmetic stainless welds matter, then finish with controlled powder coating for batch-to-batch color consistency across international rollouts. KD (knock-down) construcción, concealed fasteners, and signage-friendly details speed installation and simplify planogram updates.

Typical applications in retail (accesorios, displays, rolling racks)

  • Gondola bases/uprights, slotted panels, and shelf frames
  • Wire shelves, cestas, divisores, and peg/slatwall accessories with 25–50 mm grid pitch
  • A-frames and nesting tables for seasonal/promotional displays
  • Rolling racks with low-noise casters for apparel and back-of-house movement
  • Signage holders, price rails, tablet stands, and color-matched accessories

  • Calidad de soldadura & symbols: Visible joints to YO ASI 5817 Class B; hidden/structural joints to Class C. Symbols and callouts per YO ASI 2553.

Acabados & protección contra la corrosión (ISO 12944/ISO 8501)

  • Polvo: RAL-matched systems at 70–100 μm DFT with gloss, mate, or texture options; batch records held for rollout consistency.
  • Inoxidable 304: Brushed/grain-matched; weld discoloration removed for FOH presentation.
  • Hardware: Zinc/e-coat as specified.
  • Preparación de superficie & selección: Steel prepared per YO ASI 8501; coating systems chosen for indoor YO ASI 12944 C1–C3 environments (sales floor to BOH).

Opciones de fabricación

MIG automático/robótico (y tig si se especifica), plantillas & accesorios, repetibilidad

Robotic MIG cells standardize arc parameters and bead geometry on carbon steel frames, enabling stable takt times for high-volume programs. TIG is applied to 304 stainless or visible cosmetic joints. Custom jigs and datum pads control variation, mientras CNC-machined mounts enable fast, repeatable assembly in store or DCs.

Operaciones secundarias: corte con láser, doblando, mecanizado; revestimiento & KD packaging

Corte por láser produces price-rail windows, tragamonedas, and sign pockets; press-brake forming y formación de alambre shape brackets and baskets; Mecanizado CNC tightens critical interfaces. After finishing, fixtures are KD-packed with barcoded labels, illustrated assembly sheets, protective wrap, and corner guards; pallet densities are optimized to reduce freight cost and damage.


Tipos & Geometría

Common assemblies for retail (marcos de accesorios, wire shelves/baskets, signage holders, rolling racks) & bandas de dimensionamiento

  • Fixture frames: Tube-and-plate bases with slotted or pegboard back panels; hole patterns aligned to 25 o 50 milímetro increments for universal accessories.
  • Wire shelves & cestas: Primary wires Ø4–Ø6 mm with cross wires Ø3–Ø4 mm; edge hems or rod stiffeners to meet 10–80 kg per-shelf targets. Anti-snag wire ends specified for apparel and soft goods.
  • Signage holders: Laser-cut frames (A5–A1), bolt-on or magnetic brackets; concealed fasteners to maintain brand aesthetics.
  • Rolling racks: H- or Z-base frames with toe guards, ergonomic handle height, and low-noise casters; optional ESD/grounding features for electronics retail.

Calidad & Pruebas

Lo que verificamos (Vermont, Dft, dimensional/AQL cosmetics; PT/MT/RT opcional) y documentación (WPS/PQR, Coches)

  • 100% Vermont of welds; dimensional checks to ISO 2768/13920 with optional MMC on datum features.
  • Cosmetic AQL tailored to FOH visibility zones.
  • Recubrimientos: DFT to ISO 2808, adhesion/cure checks, and gloss/texture comparison against master chips.
  • Functional tests: Wobble/tilt stability, push/pull force feel, caster roll with fastener torque verification, and tip-stability notes for tall fixtures.
  • Documentación: WPS/PQR for robotic/TIG welds; Coches, material certs, and inspection reports supplied per shipment.

Precios & Tiempo de espera

Moq, pilot runs, conductores de costos indicativos (Sin precios duros)

We support pilot runs for NPI and scale to wholesale rollout volumes. Indicative cost drivers include: grado material (Q235/S235 vs Q355/S355 vs 304/6061), tube/wire size, total weld length and cosmetic class (ISO 5817-B vs C), laser features, coating color changes/DFT, caster specification, and KD density (pcs/pallet). Lead time improves with consolidated colors, shared jigs, and repeat releases. Provide drawings and annual volume for a responsive VE (value-engineering) quote.

Preguntas más frecuentes

What wire diameters and grid pitches are common?

Ø3–Ø8 mm wire with 25–50 mm grid pitch, tuned to shelf load and product size.

Can you hit ISO 5817-B on visible welds?

Yes—FOH joints are built/finished to Class B; non-visible joints default to Class C for cost control.

What tolerances should we call out?

How do you manage RAL color consistency?

Polvo 70–100 μm DFT with retained master chips and batch records. We supply witness panels for sign-off and align gloss/texture per spec.

Is KD packaging standard?

Sí-flat-pack with labeled fasteners, barcodes, and assembly sheets; pallet counts planned to your DC standards.

What do you need for a quote?

Send STEP/DWG/PDF, target loads (kg), RAL color/gloss/texture, signage/peg/slatwall requirements, and annual volume. We’ll respond with VE options and lead-time ranges.
