Unistrut Unique Applications

Unistrut Trolley Systems are an ideal solution for art storage racks.  Unistrut art racks are suspended by rolling trolley’s which allows the storage rack to be moved easily by one person.  The Unistrut components are robust enough to handle the weight of a fully loaded art rack.  Unistrut is available in stainless steel or defender, which has a service life over 40 years in storage environments.

Unistrut metal framing products are an ideal product to support decorative building cladding, screens, or perforated metal panels.  The Unistrut system is an all-bolted solutionthat uses larger Unistrut profiles to handle the weight of the decorative panels and relevant wind loads.  Unistrut Midwest is able to pre-fabricate these supports for a quicker installation than traditional welded steel frames.

Unistrut was contracted to design and install a neon sign support on top of a 100 year old  skyscraper in Detroit, MI.  Unistrut was able to utilize its various profile sizes to create a non welded structure to support the historic neon sign.  The project had many unique challenges such as high wind loads, no crane access, and small installation window.  Unistrut was able to pre-fabricate the supports in sections that would fit on a cargo elevator which reduced the on site man hours and allowed us to finish the project on schedule.

Unistrut Midwest partnered with Unistrut Construction in New Jersey to construct Unistrut Framing for a living wall.  The Unistrut pipe rack support system was designed to support a living wall that required piping, lighting, and electrical supports for the plants.  Unistrut Midwest pre-fabricated the 20′ tall structure in 6’8″ x 6′ x 2′ modules that were assembled in our plant in Ohio and shipped to New Jersey.  The modules were designed to be stacked on one another in the field to create the larger structure with minimal field assembly.  The project was a great example of cost savings that Unistrut can offer through our pre-fabrication division!
