CD EtiK8 ® - CD storage system

If your CD collection has outgrown your conventional CD racks then CD EtiK8 is for you. Make use of storage areas that were previously unusable, with our highly cost effective and volume efficient fully scalable CD rack - to store from 10 to hundreds of thousands of CD's !

Each CD is stored in a plastic cradle, and up to 40 of these cradles can fit into the standard backplane. The picture above shows a backplane, with the swing action of the cradles demonstrated.

Features

Low cost per CD
Backplane may be mounted horizontally, vertically on any rigid surface (wall, floor or roof)
Backplane available in black powder coat or brushed stainless steel.
Cradle pitch can be selected to allow different degrees of cradle rotation. Rotation allows CD's to be "browsed" without withdrawing them from the cradle.
Basic units can be mounted side by side and in horizontal arrays, allowing for seemless large volume storage.
Designed for installation in existing high quality furnishings (expensive wood cupboards and display cabinets)
Keep track of CD's removed from cradles with cradle labels.

Benefits

Improve your cashflow - buy only what you need right now, expand with additional backplanes and cradles when you need it
Save thousands in floor rental costs - CD EtiK8 is designed to facilitate really high density CD storage using previously unusable storage space.
Save money by reducing damage to CD cases.
Easily manage large CD collections

Application examples

CD EtiK8 can stand alone or can be utilised in dozens of different ways. It can be mounted on carousels, exotic hardwood stands, within existing furniture, metal and wooden shelving, walls and ceilings. Where ever you intall it, it always looks the same and brings consistency to your CD storage environment.

 

Installation :

Two backplanes installed with cradles removed either side to show location of mounting screws. Backplane at the bottom still to receive its cradles. The cradles are shown in the maximum storage density. If you require more swivel range, by using different hole pitches each backplane can be configured to store between 10 and 40 CD's.

Increasing the capacity of existing storage :

Installation of mounting rails, showing two empty backplanes. This is the easiest method of installing large numbers of CD EtiK8 units. Each mounting rail is installed using 3 screws. The backplanes are then screwed onto the mounting rails using M4 machine screws (supplied)
