About Mizer Mobile Shelving & MCL Storage Products
Mizer is a mobile (compact) shelving brand manufactured by MCL Storage Products Inc.,headquartered in Edmonton, Alberta with a distribution center in Calgary. Mizer carriage systems have been built inCalgary since 1998 and are supplied through a network of authorized dealers, including Material Handling USA.
A Mizer system mounts standard shelving, filing, or racking on rolling steel carriages that ride on floor-mountedtracks. Aisles stay closed until a carriage is moved, so a facility can pack far more storage into the same floorfootprint than fixed shelving allows — or free up floor space for workstations while keeping the same storagecapacity.
Every Mizer system carries the manufacturer’s lifetime warranty, and MCL Storage Products builds each carriage onwhat it calls a box-frame chassis rather than the lighter “C”-channel carriages used by some competing systems,aimed at higher bending and torsional stiffness at a lower carriage profile.
Three Mizer Carriage Lines
MCL Storage Products builds three distinct Mizer carriage lines, each suited to a different load, budget and floor condition. Material Handling USA can help match the right line to your space, floor loading and access-frequency needs.
Mechanical MobilesMizer’s core mechanical-assist line. A geared three-spoke handwheel lets one person move very heavy, fully loaded carriages with minimal effort — the manufacturer’s most popular line for high-density, frequently accessed records and supply storage.
Colorado Manual MobilesAn economical push-pull system mounted on the same box-frame carriage as the mechanical line, without the geared handwheel. A practical fit for lighter-access storage rooms where a mechanical assist isn’t required.
Quicksilver Light-Duty MobilesA lightweight, manual push-pull line built on aluminum carriages instead of steel — roughly 30% faster to install, and suited to weight-restricted upper floors that can’t support a standard steel-carriage system.The Mizer Advantage
MCL Storage Products highlights the following standard features across its Mizer product line:
How Much Space Can a Mizer System Save?
MCL Storage Products publishes the following example based on a 444-square-foot filing room. The same footprint can be configured to maximize capacity or minimize footprint, depending on the priority for that room:
| Configuration | Units in the Room | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Typical fixed shelving | 6 units | Baseline — permanent aisle space required between every unit |
| Maximized Mizer mobile shelving | 10 units | 67% more storage capacity in the same 444 sq. ft. |
| Minimized Mizer mobile shelving | 6 units + 2 workstations | 40% of the room’s footprint freed up for two additional workstations |
Because a Mizer system also uses less steel and floor space than an equivalent fixed-shelving expansion, MCL notes it can support smaller overall building footprints, lower material use, and reduced ongoing utility costs for the space it occupies.
Where Mizer Systems Are Installed
MCL Storage Products has installed Mizer systems across a range of high-density storage environments, including:
Business & Law OfficesLaw libraries, corporate records rooms and professional-services filing, where bound volumes and legal files need dense, organized on-site storage.
Health Care FacilitiesHospital and health-campus records and supply storage, including installations at facilities such as Alberta’s South Health Campus.
Libraries & EducationUniversity, college and public library collections, where mobile shelving lets a library grow its holdings without expanding the building.
Archives & MuseumsMicrofilm, municipal records and museum/gallery collections that require organized, space-efficient long-term archival storage.
Government & Law EnforcementEvidence, corrections and government-records storage, including expanded-metal security mesh end panels for controlled-access rooms.Mizer and the MH-USA Mobile Shelving Lineup
