Claim One:
1. A method for measuring a storage frame by a measuring apparatus having a scanning device and an operating range, the storage frame has at least one tray defining an at least one approximately horizontal storing plane and being configured for storing rod-like elements, the rod-like elements configured for storing products, each having a body and a loop for storage of the products on the rod-like element, the method comprising the steps of: moving the storage frame into the operating range of the measuring apparatus, scanning the storage frame by the measuring apparatus for detecting and recording data regarding geometrical dimensions of the storage frame including at least a height of the tray, referring the height of the tray to a reference height, creating a dataset including at least the height of the tray, storing the dataset in a data memory device, creating a link between the dataset and the storage frame, providing classes of datasets and arranging the datasets which include at least the height of the tray in said classes, and wherein each class of datasets includes datasets having similar features, and transmitting the datasets to a system for handling the storage frames, which includes a robotic device, for controlling the movement of the robotic device on the basis of the respective dataset, while inserting or removing rod-like elements into or from the storage frame.
