We have 30 feet of clear height. How high should we rack?

As high as your forklift can safely place a loaded pallet, minus clearance to the lowest overhead obstruction. We check lift capacity at height before we draw the elevations.

What if our forklift cannot reach the height we want?

We will tell you during design and lay out two options: a layout your current equipment supports, and one that assumes a reach truck, so you can weigh the storage gain against the equipment cost.

How hard is it to reconfigure a row later?

Beam levels reposition on the frame punch pattern, so changing elevations is straightforward. Using standard component sizes throughout is what keeps that easy.

Can you support both full-pallet and case picking?

Yes, and most fulfillment layouts mix them. Reserve pallets go up, case picking happens at the lower levels or in dedicated carton flow lanes.

Do you install in occupied buildings?

Almost always. Work is phased row by row and can run off-shift so shipping and receiving keep operating throughout the build.

Industrial Pallet Racks & Warehouse Racking in Pontiac, MI

Price range: $$

Pontiac has a lot of large industrial space that was built for one tenant and is now used by another. Taking over part of a former assembly building often means inheriting clear height you are not using and a floor plan that does not match how you pick.

We turn that space into a working layout — pallet positions counted, aisles sized for your equipment, and pick faces where your team actually stands. The CAD drawing comes before the invoice.

Pallet Rack Solutions for Pontiac Warehouses

Around Centerpoint and the Opdyke corridor, buildings frequently offer thirty feet or more of clear height. Tenants who moved in from smaller space rarely rack past the height their old forklift could reach.

We look at lift capacity first, because the honest answer is sometimes that a taller layout needs different equipment. If it does, you will hear that during the design conversation rather than after installation.

Fulfillment and contract packaging tenants also change layouts often as accounts come and go. We build with standard components and adjustable beam levels so a reprofile is a scheduling question, not a capital project.

What a Pallet Rack Project Looks Like

Design begins with pallet dimensions and weights, clear height, forklift model and lift capacity, SKU count, and your order profile — full pallets out, case picking, or both. The resulting CAD layout shows pallet positions, beam elevations, aisle widths, and pick face placement, with itemized pricing.

Selective racking suits fulfillment operations that need everything reachable. Push back and drive-in handle depth of the same item. Pallet flow gives first-in, first-out rotation for dated stock, and carton flow supports high-volume case picking.

Installation is phased so outbound never stops, and crews anchor, plumb, level, and capacity-tag every bay as they work. Wire decking, pallet supports, row spacers, and protection are supplied with the system.

You end with a documented layout, rated capacities, and one local contact for expansion bays and reprofiles when the next account lands.
