Use our module estimator to assist you
to determine how many modules can be fitted under sloping ceilings &
stairwells and into irregularly shaped locations.

To
estimate under sloping ceiling or stairway applications:
1. Mark the height and
length of your slope dimensions on the vertical and horizontal axis's
(using the red dimensions).

2. Draw a straight line
between the two marked points on the axis's to represent your ceiling or
stairway slope.
3. Count the number of
modules in each row (below the drawn line) and enter that number in the
right hand column.
4. Add the column of
module numbers to give you the total number of modules required.
5. NOTE: Your inability to
fit a whole module in some spaces close to the ceiling or under stair steps
does not always mean you will not be able to store a bottle in that space.
Bottles will often be able to be stored on top of the modules immediately
below the empty space. (See also
Assembly Hints below)
To
estimate irregularly shaped spaces including contouring around roof beams &
other obstructions:
1. Draw the space to
scale on the estimating sheet (using the red dimensions).
2. Count the number of
modules in each row within the available space and enter that number in the
right hand column.
4. Add the column of
module numbers to give you the total number of modules required.
4. NOTE: Your inability to
fit a whole module in some spaces close to the ceiling or under stair steps
does not always mean you will not be able to store a bottle in that space.
Bottles will often be able to be stored on top of the modules immediately
below the empty space. (See also

Assembly
Hints
1. In some applications
you can assemble the back face of the rack and trial fit it into the space
available.
2. It can be useful to
use a combination of the 'By Columns' and 'Module By Module' methods when
assembling racks to suit awkward shaped spaces. Use 'By Columns' to
fill the easy areas and then 'Module By Module' to fill in the awkward
spaces
