Abstract—Human needs are in increasing day-by-day, to satisfy those needs the small and medium scale industries are increasing. Most of small and medium scale industries uses traditional storage system i.e store the metal sheets horizontally on floor available within the industry. Such system has many drawback and safety factor is also less. Due to which most of the industries are searching for better and efficient storage system which can provide them better safety, better handling, compactness and low maintenances. Storage system should consume less space, more efficient, much safety with low maintenances. To design such system many of industrial sector come forward with hydraulic and pneumatic or mechatronics system but such systems are not compatible with small and medium scale industries due to maintenance cost and requirement of skilled labour for handling such system. So, here for storage of metal sheets a simple metal sheet storage system has been suggested. It is affordable and easy to handle in any type of small and medium scale industries.
