Working around weird support columns and low ceilings ruins your picking lanes. Custom pallet racks are engineered to fit exactly where you need them. Stop wasting expensive square footage in your Burbank, CA warehouse.
- ✓Retrofitted older buildings
- ✓Multi-level storage configurations
Custom racking setups in Burbank, CA mean custom permit headaches. The Burbank Building Division will not let you build near Warner Bros. Studio Tour / Walt Disney Studios without stamped engineered drawings. Call (818) 238-5220 or visit 150 N 3rd St, Burbank, CA 91502 to verify your exact capacity limits before you start bolting steel. Custom frame structures require dedicated seismic threshold calculations directly from the city.

Custom Pallet Racking & High-Density Systems
When standard selective racking isn't enough to maximize your throughput, WDRacks custom-engineers, designs, and installs specialized high-density systems tailored to your unique inventory profiles:
- ✓Double-Deep Pallet Racking: Increase storage capacity by up to 40% over standard layouts by placing selective racking two pallets deep. This setup reduces aisle space while maintaining high density, accessed seamlessly via deep-reach forklifts.
- ✓Drive-in & Drive-Through Systems: Engineered for high-volume, low-SKU inventories, allowing forklifts to drive directly into the steel bays to stack pallets multiple levels deep in a Last-In, First-Out (LIFO) or First-In, First-Out (FIFO) flow.
- ✓Carton Flow & Pallet Flow (Gravity Flow): Utilizing sloped steel lanes equipped with heavy-duty rollers, gravity-driven flow systems automatically slide inventory forward to the picking aisle. They provide flawless FIFO product rotation, making them perfect for fast-moving consumer goods, food distribution, and cold-storage operations.
- ✓Cantilever Racks & Mezzanines: Specialized structural steel columns designed to hold long, heavy, or non-standard materials like lumber, tubing, and sheet metal, alongside custom mezzanine platforms designed to safely double your usable warehouse square footage.
Passing Strict Seismic Code Inspections
We never cross our fingers and hope a custom design passes code. We employ licensed engineers to stamp every custom structural drawing, guaranteeing your new racks meet all local seismic and building safety requirements.
FEA Profiling in Custom Pallet Racking
Developing custom pallet racking systems requires granular structural profiling to counteract highly concentrated point-load distributions. Integrating these custom-engineered matrices into a Burbank warehouse ensures that complex bay geometries align perfectly with specialized material handling equipment (MHE) trajectories and localized load-bearing constraints.
- ✓Profile concentrated point-load distribution vectors.
- ✓Synchronize custom bay geometries with specialized MHE trajectories.
- ✓Calibrate localized load-bearing constraints against custom footprint calculations.

Technical Inquiry: Q&A
Question
"What metallurgical modifications are required when engineering custom racking for highly caustic storage environments in Burbank, CA?"
Holden Conner Senior Estimator & Material Quote Specialist
Standard powder-coated carbon steel degrades rapidly in caustic atmospheres. Custom architectures require hot-dipped galvanized structural profiles, utilizing ASTM A123 compliance, paired with marine-grade stainless steel wedge anchors to prevent catastrophic galvanic corrosion at the baseplates.
