Say you have an existing unit, but you want to make it taller. How can you combine the posts?
Shelving Inc has the solution for you: the post extension kit. By installing the extension kit in your unit, you can add posts to increase the height. Don’t worry, it’s not as complicated as it might seem. Here’s what you need to install it.
You’ll have your posts, your extension kit (which comes in two parts: the plug and the bolt). The bolt threads into your new post, just like leveling feet would. The plug is inserted into the top of your existing posts.
To install, you must first remove the plastic post cap. Grab a set of pliers to pull the cap out. It may seem like the plug doesn’t fit into the post at first. You’ll need a rubber mallet to set the plug in place. The extension kit is meant to be a permanent solution, so it’s a snug fit. Tamp down the plug using the rubber mallet until it’s buried to the ridge.
Now that it’s securely in place, you can attach the threaded bolt from your extra post. Twist the top post, making sure that the threading catches inside the plug. Once the posts connect, you are left with one larger post. You won’t be able to pull them apart
and you’ll still have the hallmarks of a post cap and a threaded insert for leveling feet.
For all intents and purposes, the post extension kit allows you to increase the height of your existing post.For more wire shelving tips, visit Shelving.com.
