How do I speed up picking without adding staff?

Put the fastest-moving items at waist height in a dedicated pick face and move reserve stock above it. Most branches gain more from that change than from any other single layout adjustment.

What holds pipe, conduit, and long trim?

Cantilever racking. The open front means no columns in the way, so a single operator can load and pull long material without maneuvering around uprights.

Can I buy the system in phases?

Yes. Quotes are itemized by component, so you can install the reserve rows first and add pick face lanes or accessories in a later phase.

Do narrow aisles limit what I can install?

They shape the design more than they limit it. We size aisle widths to your specific lift equipment, and narrower aisle equipment can free up space for another full row.

How adjustable are the beam levels?

Beams reposition on the frame punch pattern, so changing an elevation is a straightforward task when your product profile changes.

Industrial Pallet Racks & Warehouse Racking in Southfield, MI

Wholesale operations in Southfield live and die on pick speed. When counter staff are climbing over stacked boxes to find a fitting, orders slow down and the whole branch feels it by mid-morning.

We lay out warehouse racking so the fast movers sit at waist height near the counter and the slow stock goes up. You get a CAD drawing with the pick face plan and pallet position count before ordering anything.

Pallet Rack Solutions for Southfield Warehouses

Buildings along Telegraph and Northwestern Highway are often mixed office and warehouse, with the storage area sized as an afterthought. That leaves narrow aisles, limited dock access, and no room for a mistake in the layout.

We plan around it by combining pallet racking for bulk reserve with carton flow or shelving at the pick face, so replenishment happens above and picking stays at ground level.

Distribution branches also rotate inventory as product lines change. Our layouts use adjustable beam levels and standard component sizes, so reprofiling a row for a new product line is an afternoon of work instead of a rebuild.

What a Pallet Rack Project Looks Like

We begin by separating bulk reserve from pick face. That means knowing your pallet dimensions and weights, how many SKUs you hold, which ones move daily, and what equipment moves them — forklift, reach truck, or pallet jack. The CAD layout that follows shows aisle widths, beam elevations, position counts, and pick face placement.

Selective pallet racking usually forms the reserve, with the lowest level set as a pick position. Carton flow lanes handle case picking, cantilever holds pipe, conduit, and trim, and push back adds density for bulk items you hold deep.

The quote is itemized so you can see frames, beams, decking, and accessories separately and phase the purchase if needed. Installation is scheduled around counter hours, and crews anchor, plumb, level, and capacity-tag each row.

Afterward, one local contact handles replacement beams, added bays, and reprofiling when the product mix changes.
