Custom racking setups in Fort Collins, CO mean custom permit headaches. The Larimer County Building Department will not let you build near Old Town Historic District | The inspiration for Disneyland’s Main Street, U.S.A. without stamped engineered drawings. Call (970) 498-7700 or visit 200 W Oak St # 3100, Fort Collins, CO 80521 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 Fort Collins 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.
