I have tried ikeahacks but withoutb any joy. They only show the ads from fleebay etc.
IKEA do not stock it in UK anymore, I have a friend that works for them, that was my first call. Plenty in the States, but for the couple of bits I want USA and fleebay are too expensive.
Looks like it will have to be a scaffolding pole job.

Hi Silver,
Thanks.
I know that there is a large stock in USA and believe that it is available in Germany.
Problem is that management has decided that the changes have to made this weekend. So I am going to make what I need with a scaffolding pole.
I can always swap it with the correct pieces when I find them.

Yes Roberto.
I only want one support pole, one shelf, one railand a few brackets.
About £30 to £40 new.
I'm in the midst of gathering bits of scaffolding.
Tomorrow I'll make it 'cos management has decided that the units we have will be moved from one room to another, different setup and tomorrow or else.

Screwfix used to sell a modular floor to ceiling storage solution, similar to this...

http://www.spacepro.com/flex-storage-solutions/

That link goes to a US site, but with a bit of searching I'm sure it's available here.

Edit, UK site

Thanks Matt,
Management has declared it a no-no. She says it is the wrong shape. Talk,about OCD.
I only sleep in the bedroom, nothing else is allowed, rules have been made, I do not care if it is odd colours, does not match. As long as my clothes hang OK, who cares about anything else . . . . Oh heck, Gwen does, what a bugger.

Thanks Del.
We have seen al that is on offer.
Trouble is the distance to travel. And these poles would not fit into the car. OK for a mile or three but a three or four hour drive.
