94" KV82 Heavy-Duty Double Slot Shelf Standard, Titanium Finish
Description
94 Inch KV82 Shelf Standard For Adjustable Storage
94 inch KV82 shelf standard from Knape and Vogt is a heavy-duty double slot standard that supports adjustable shelving runs over tall wall sections, so you can carry storage from low reach up toward ceiling height in one continuous line. The KV82 model is part of the Designer Series standards and brackets, which provides a coordinated system when paired with the matching KV182 series bracket for consistent slot engagement and support. This 94 inch length is one of several available lengths, allowing runs to be planned around room heights and cut lists. The standard is 1-1/16 inch wide and 11/16 inch deep, giving a compact profile that still presents enough bearing surface for the bracket hooks. The unit is made from 14-gauge steel, which gives a sturdy backbone for closet, garage, or utility shelving where heavier loads are common. A titanium finish is available via special order, so the color can be matched to projects calling for that look.
Key KV82 Standard Details For Real-World Jobs
- Designer Series standards and brackets use a third epoxy coat finish, which provides an attractive surface that coordinates with other Designer Series components in visible storage areas.
- Adjustable in 1-1/4 inch increments, the slot pattern lets you fine-tune shelf height to match hang rods, totes, or cabinets without being locked to large step changes.
- Screw holes spaced 10 inches apart on center give a repetitive fastening pattern, which speeds layout along studs and helps installers keep rows of standards aligned.
- Material is 14-gauge steel, so installers can rely on a rigid upright when pairing with suitable brackets for closet, garage, or shop shelving applications.
- Available lengths include 16-1/2, 28, 39, 48, 63, 78, and 94 inches, allowing combinations that follow different wall heights and avoid unnecessary cutting on site.
- Available finishes are Almond, Black, and White epoxy coated, with Titanium available via special order, so visible storage can match trim or hardware color schemes.
Mounting And Layout Details For KV82 Installation
The KV82 heavy-duty double slot shelf standard uses screw holes spaced 10 inches on center along the length, so layout starts with locating the first fastener and then repeating that spacing down the wall. The 1-1/16 inch width and 11/16 inch depth define the footprint against the mounting surface, which helps when working near casing or corner returns. Adjustable 1-1/4 inch slot increments allow installers to align multiple standards so brackets seat at the same level across a run. Recommended fasteners are KV82SCRW, sold separately, which ties this standard to a known screw option for consistent grip in typical wall substrates.
Using The 82 TI 94 Standard In Storage Runs
Where The KV82 Heavy-Duty Standard Fits Best
The Knape and Vogt KV82 model is a heavy-duty double slot shelf standard used with KV182 series brackets, so it serves as the vertical track in an adjustable shelving system. With a 94 inch length, this 82 TI 94 titanium shelf standard spans tall closet or garage walls, letting installers design multi-level storage with long continuous uprights. The 1-1/16 inch wide by 11/16 inch deep profile allows it to sit neatly along studs or over finished surfaces without consuming excessive wall depth. Available lengths from 16-1/2 to 94 inches support layouts ranging from short sections over benches up to full-height installations, tying small and tall areas into a single standard family. Finishes in Almond, Black, White, and special-order Titanium make the Designer Series suitable for closets, mudrooms, and finished utility spaces where exposed hardware must coordinate with shelving and trim.
Details That Support Consistent Alignment And Adjustment
The KV82 shelf standard uses a double slot pattern adjustable in 1-1/4 inch increments, which lets installers keep bracket heights synchronized across multiple standards while still dialing in shelf spacing to what stored items require. Screw holes spaced 10 inches apart on center simplify striking marks on the wall, so each upright can be fastened on a consistent grid that follows stud layout or masonry anchors. The third epoxy coat finish on the Designer Series standards and brackets provides a smooth surface that interacts cleanly with bracket hooks, supporting repeated shelf adjustments without rough contact areas. The 14-gauge steel construction gives each standard a solid, non-flexing feel when brackets are loaded, which helps maintain level shelves along long runs. Being made in the USA, the KV82 line offers predictable manufacturing for repeated projects using the same specifications and part numbers.
