Stacking heavy, strange freight requires serious structural math. Custom racking is calculated and stamped to handle your exact load weights safely. Pass your Omaha, NE inspections easily and eliminate the risk of a collapse.
- ✓Seismic zone warehouses
- ✓Facilities storing hazardous materials
Do not guess the structural math on your custom racking layout. Clear it with the Omaha Planning Dept. - Building located at 1819 Farnam St, Ste 1110, Omaha, NE 68183 (or call (402) 444-5350). They demand proof that your unique storage grid meets local fire and safety codes, especially when operating close to The Durham Museum | Housed in the stunning Union Station; a tribute to the golden age of rail. Confirm your specific seismic zone classification before anchoring those weirdly shaped uprights.

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.
Designing Around Building Quirks and Columns
We do not believe in dead space caused by awkward support columns or low-hanging pipes. Our engineering team maps your exact building constraints and designs custom layouts that maximize every inch of your available floor plan.
Atypical Load Architecture via Custom Pallet Racking
Overcoming irregular spatial footprints involves designing custom pallet racking with asymmetrical upright placements and variable load-beam capacities. Constructing this bespoke framework in a Omaha facility optimizes the storage cube by neutralizing geometric inefficiencies and engineering specific structural tolerances for unique supply chain commodities.
- ✓Calculate variable load-beam capacities for asymmetrical configurations.
- ✓Neutralize geometric inefficiencies through XYZ spatial modeling.
- ✓Audit structural tolerances for bespoke commodity dimensions.

Technical Inquiry: Q&A
Question
"How do custom asymmetrical frame profiles handle dynamic torsional forces during material handling sequences in Omaha, NE?"
Holden Conner Senior Estimator & Material Quote Specialist
Asymmetrical frames inherently lack balanced structural symmetry, necessitating heavy-duty horizontal and diagonal strut lacing. This specialized triangulation neutralizes the lateral sway and dynamic torsional forces introduced when equipment engages the eccentric bays.
