Two wheels · telescopic pull handle · stacks
A basket on wheels with a pull handle, for the shopper who wants more than they can carry and less than a trolley. It is dragged behind rather than pushed in front.
Studio angles on white, with close-ups below.
A roller basket is used completely differently from a trolley. It follows the shopper rather than leading them, which means it takes corners differently, gets pulled up steps, and spends its life at an angle. Two wheels rather than four, a telescopic handle rather than a fixed one, and a body profiled to sit stably when the handle is dropped all follow from that.
It fills the gap between a hand basket and a trolley, and in city-centre and convenience formats it is often the most used item in the store. The handle retracts fully into the body so a stacked column is no taller than the baskets themselves.

Everything on a roller basket is a consequence of it being dragged at an angle. These four are where that shows.
Retracts fully into the body
Two stages rather than one gives a comfortable pull height for a tall shopper without the handle standing proud when retracted. Retracted, the column of stacked baskets is no taller than the baskets themselves.
Two, set at the corners
Both wheels sit at the rear corners rather than under the middle. On a basket dragged at an angle the load transfers to one wheel through a turn, and cornering them is what stops it digging in.
Weight down, drainage out
The perforations do two jobs: they take weight out of a basket that gets lifted onto a counter loaded, and they let a wet item drain instead of sitting in a puddle at the bottom.
Sits stable with the handle down
The base is profiled so the basket stands square when the handle is dropped. A roller basket that rolls away the moment it is let go is one shoppers stop using by the second aisle.
Every item on this page is made to order. Send a floor plan, a hand sketch or a photograph of a fixture you like, and we quote against it.
Store fixtures are light for their size, so a container fills up on volume long before it fills up on weight. What decides your freight is not what one unit weighs — it is what shape the goods are in when they go through the container door. Everything we build leaves in one of three shapes.
Shelving bays, produce islands and bulk cabinets travel as panels — uprights, shelves, back panels and plinths, strapped flat with bubble wrap on every component. They are built up on the shop floor, so the packing list and the assembly drawings travel with the goods.
Trolleys slide into one another and baskets stack. Past the first unit, each extra one adds only its nesting pitch instead of its full length, so the shipped volume ends up a fraction of what the unit count suggests.
This model
A checkout lane is welded, coated and fitted out as one piece, so it is crated whole with padding on the steel. Nothing waits to be assembled at the store beyond levelling it into the lane, and the crate is the counter plus a margin.
Baskets stack, which makes them the densest thing we ship. A column of nested baskets is close to solid plastic, so the freight cost per basket is a fraction of anything else in this catalogue — which is why baskets are almost always added to a container that is going anyway rather than shipped on their own. We do not publish litre capacities for this range. The figures circulating for it came from an old third-party listing rather than from our own production records, and they are being confirmed with the factory first.
A trolley bay is part of the front of store, and what it stands next to decides how well it works.
The lane length has to leave room for a loaded trolley to turn out of it, which is a dimension worth checking before either is ordered.
See checkout countersAisle width is set by two loaded trolleys passing, so the shelving depth and the trolley size are one decision rather than two.
See shelving baysA promotion square at an aisle head is the first thing a trolley has to get past, and the clearance between them is worth drawing.
See promotional standsHow many of each a store needs is a floor area question rather than a product question, and it is answered store by store on the store layout planning page.
Send your quantity and colour reference. Baskets ride on a container that is already going.
Tell us the quantity, the colour reference and whether your floors have any slope. Roller baskets are the densest thing we ship, so adding them to a fixture order that is already going costs very little in freight.

Because a roller basket is dragged behind the shopper at an angle rather than pushed level. Four wheels fight that angle and the basket skews sideways; two let it track properly behind the person pulling it.
Two stages, which gives a comfortable pull height for a tall shopper. The exact extension is confirmed with the order, because it is set against the basket height rather than being a fixed figure.
We are not publishing litre figures for this range. The numbers circulating for it came from an old third-party listing rather than from our own production records, and they are being confirmed with the factory. Ask and we will tell you where that stands.
The base is profiled to stand square with the handle down, but no unbraked wheeled basket holds on a real gradient. If your floor slopes, say so and we will recommend the four-wheel build instead.
