Help! We are doing a linac project and need heavy duty adjustable brackets for 30 inch to 35 inch deep shelves. Any suggestions on where to look? Tracy L. Van Niel, FCSI, CCS |

Linac is a Linear Accelerator. Often used for imaging purposes and oncology treatment in healthcare facilities. https://www.radiologyinfo.org/en/info/linac In my past projects, we just used wood millwork for shelving within the concrete structure of the room |

Thank you, Nathan. The University wants adjustable shelving so they can rearrange the casework shelves if needed. Thank you, David. Originally I was told it could be items that weight up to 50 pounds each but it sounds like the user is now saying items to be stored are lighter than that. The issue was the designer saying the brackets needed to be 30 inches to 35 inches and I wasn't able to find anything that long. I think KV has a super heavy duty bracket that is 24 inches? Tracy L.

I agree with Lisa. Rakks by Rangine is the way to go. They are very proactive and very helpful if you call them and give them project specifics. Really good for vanity brackets/supports too. |

Thank you, Lisa and Ken. I will let the designer know about this option! |
