Picture Racking for Private Collections and Dealers

Private art collections present similar storage challenges to museum collections — valuable works need to be protected from physical damage, environmental deterioration and theft, while remaining accessible for viewing, loan and sale. Rackstor UK Ltd supplies picture racking for private collections of all sizes, from a few dozen works to several thousand.

Commercial galleries and art dealers need storage that works efficiently as part of a business operation — works need to be located quickly, accessed without damage and returned to storage efficiently. Sliding panel racks with labelling systems and inventory integration are the right choice for commercial gallery storage.

Auction houses handle large volumes of works in a short timeframe — receiving, cataloguing, photographing, viewing, selling and dispatching. Storage systems need to accommodate rapid turnover, easy access and clear identification of individual lots. Rackstor UK Ltd has designed storage systems for auction house environments with exactly these operational requirements in mind.

For high-value collections, Rackstor UK Ltd can specify picture racking with lockable access panels, integration with access control systems, and CCTV-compatible layouts. We work with security consultants and insurers on high-value collection storage projects. Call 0800 654 6955 for a free consultation and quotation.
