How do I decide between selective, push back, drive-in, and pallet flow racking?

It comes down to SKU count, pallet depth per SKU, and how fast product turns. High SKU variety with frequent picks stays selective; a handful of SKUs with deep quantities gain far more storage density in push back, drive-in, or pallet flow. Send us your SKU profile and pallet counts and our design team will model two or three options side by side so you can compare pallet positions before you commit.

What does your free warehouse design consultation actually include?

You get a CAD layout of your space with beam elevations, aisle widths, rack configurations, and a total pallet position count — at no cost and with no obligation. We work from your pallet dimensions, load weights, clear height, and forklift type, so the drawing reflects how your operation really runs. Most warehouse managers use it to justify the project internally before budget is approved.

How much additional storage capacity can we realistically gain?

Most Detroit-area warehouses we redesign pick up 20–40% more pallet positions in the same footprint. The gains usually come from using clear height that is sitting empty, tightening aisle widths to match the lift equipment already on the floor, and moving slow-moving SKUs into denser storage. We will show you the before and after pallet counts so the number is not a guess.

Can you design around our existing racking instead of replacing it?

Yes, and it is often the smarter spend. We identify the frames and beams worth keeping, match components where the profiles allow it, and design new industrial pallet racking to tie into what you already own. If mixing systems would compromise capacity, we will tell you that up front rather than sell you around it.

What lead times should we plan for on a warehouse racking project?

Standard pallet rack components move through our 48-hour quick ship program. High-density and non-standard sizes take longer, and lead time is confirmed on the quote. Installation timing depends on bay count and site readiness. We give you a firm schedule with the quote so you can plan labor and inventory moves around it.
