You only have so much storage space in your facility. While you have the option of building a new construction or leasing additional space, it isn’t always the most feasible route to take. It can be time consuming and costly. Fortunately, we offer vertical space-saving solutions that can optimize areas in your physical plant.
1. Mezzanines
Mezzanine systems provide added floor space where it’s needed. These customizable steel structures expand storage capacity and improve workplace productivity. The system is compatible with vertical lifts and is ideal for creating new areas for the following:
- Offices
- Storage
- Manufacturing
Falls and injuries are common in the warehouse work environment, especially on elevated platforms. Because of this, mezzanines are compatible with safety gates. The GateKeeper is a good choice for a safety gate because it remains closed at all times. Additionally, it’s compliant with OSHA, IBC and ANSI standards. It’s also a cost-saver for your business because it reduces workers’ compensation claims and insurance costs.
2. Elevator Lifts
An elevator lift, or freight lift, allows your employees to easily move heavy merchandise from one area of the warehouse to another. If safety, efficiency and productivity is a top priority for your facility, then this is essential equipment to add to your facility’s operations. The materials handling system is ideal for mezzanine and through-floor environments. It’s fully automated, so it doesn’t place additional demands on your workers.
- Hydraulic vertical lifts
- Mechanical vertical lifts
- Package handling lift
Our W.E. Carlson team can schedule an on-site visit and assess your physical plant. Based on your requirements, we can design a vertical package handling lift system that specifics to your warehouse needs.
3. Racking Systems
A racking system is an elevated platform that maximizes your current space. It expands any usable floor space above existing operations. At some point, rack repairs may be required so consider using the Damotech Rack Repair.
The proprietary lifting system is a less disruptive alternative to a traditional upright replacement. The Damotech Rack Repair is a suitable temporary support system to use when your racking system is being serviced. It’s not only good for repairing and reinforcing warehouse racking systems but also heavy-duty industrial shelving units. It also helps prevent accidents and tragic rack upright collapses. It’s so durable that it’s guaranteed for life, so it can take all kinds of hits.
