Can you handle heavy stamped parts and steel on standard racking?

Not on a standard distribution spec. We size frame gauge, beam capacity, and deck support around your real maximum weight per position, and every row gets a capacity tag so operators know the rating.

Do you install around an active production schedule?

Yes. Most plant installs are phased by row or by aisle, and crews can work off-shift or on weekends so a changeover and a rack build are not fighting for the same floor space.

What is the best rack for returnable containers and dunnage?

It depends on how deep you hold each part number. Selective racking keeps everything reachable, while push back or drive-in stores several containers deep from one aisle and gives back the floor space aisles would have used.

How long does a quote take?

Usually a few business days. Once we have pallet sizes, weights, clear height, and forklift type, the design team produces the CAD layout and itemized pricing together.

Can you add to racking we already own?

In most cases. Send photos of the frame punch pattern and beam connectors and we will identify the manufacturer, then match components or design a tie-in row.

Pallet rack projects in Dearborn tend to arrive with a deadline attached. Supplier programs ramp on a schedule, and if the storage is not in place the parts end up stacked on the floor where a forklift has to weave around them.

We supply and install industrial pallet racks for Dearborn plants and warehouses, sized around the pallet weights automotive work actually produces. You get a layout, a position count, and a firm price before anyone orders steel.

Pallet Rack Solutions for Dearborn Warehouses

Dearborn storage problems are usually weight problems. Stamped parts, dunnage racks, and steel put load on beams that a standard distribution spec was never rated for, and the wrong capacity shows up as deflection within months.

We spec frame gauge, beam capacity, and decking around what you actually put in the bay, then label every level with its rated load so your team knows the limits at a glance.

Working near the Rouge complex and along Michigan Avenue means tight turnarounds and shared docks. Our crews phase installation around production windows so a line changeover is not competing with a rack build for the same aisle.

What a Pallet Rack Project Looks Like

Every Dearborn project begins with the numbers: pallet or container footprint, maximum weight per position, clear height under the lowest obstruction, forklift type, and how many part numbers need daily access. We turn that into a CAD layout with beam elevations and aisle widths, plus an itemized quote.

From there we match the system to the work. Selective racking suits mixed part numbers pulled throughout the shift. Push back and drive-in make sense for depth of the same container. Cantilever holds bar stock, tubing, and long extrusions that will not sit on a pallet.

We also supply the parts that keep a heavy-duty system intact — wire decking, pallet supports, row spacers, column protectors, and end-of-row guards. Installation crews anchor and plumb each frame, then capacity-tag the rows. Afterward you have one number to call for added bays, replacement beams, or a second layout when the program grows.
