Warehouse Racks

Engineered for Efficiency: Expert Warehouse Racking Design & Installation


The backbone of any efficient warehouse is its storage infrastructure, but at PWD, we don’t just install racks and call it complete. Every racking system we deliver is engineered specifically for your product dimensions, handling processes, and operational goals.

Our experienced team performs detailed inventory analysis and slotting studies to ensure that every storage location is optimized for access, SKU velocity, and throughput. This data-driven approach helps maximize usable space, streamline pick paths, and align your racking design with your facility’s flow.

We provide:

  • Custom warehouse racking design for pallet racking, carton flow, cantilever, push-back, drive-in, and more

  • Full-service installation and project management

  • Rack repair and reinforcement for damaged or aging systems

  • Reconfiguration and retrofitting services

  • Integration with conveyors, pick modules, and mezzanines

Whether you’re building new, expanding, or correcting inefficiencies, Precision Warehouse Design delivers racking systems that enhance productivity and protect your investment.

We empower warehouse managers, ecommerce directors, and supply chain executives to transform their storage systems into strategic assets.

What is Warehouse Racking Design and Why Does It Matter?

Warehouse racking design involves the strategic planning, engineering, and configuration of storage structures within a facility to optimize space, improve accessibility, and enhance material flow. It’s about selecting the right type of racking, configuring its layout, specifying the proper capacity, and ensuring its integration with other material handling systems.

Why is expert pallet racking design crucial for modern warehouses?

Space Maximization

Proper design converts unused vertical and horizontal space into high-density storage, avoiding costly facility expansions.

Operational Efficiency

Racking directly impacts pick paths, put-away times, and forklift movement, influencing overall throughput.

Safety & Compliance

Engineered racking ensures structural integrity, protects personnel as well as inventory, and adheres to critical safety standards.

Scalability

A well-designed system can adapt to changing inventory levels, product sizes, and future growth.

Real Operational Benefits of Our Warehouse Rack Design Solutions

Our expertly engineered warehouse rack design and installation services deliver measurable benefits that directly enhance your operational performance and bottom line:

Increased Storage Capacity

Significantly boost your facility's storage density, allowing you to house more SKUs or higher volumes within the same footprint.

Optimized Material Flow

Improve pick rates, reduce travel times, and eliminate bottlenecks by creating logical and efficient storage layouts.

Enhanced Safety and Structural Integrity

Our designs prioritize safety, ensuring racks meet or exceed industry standards, protecting both personnel and inventory.

Reduced Operational Costs

Minimize labor expenses related to inefficient retrieval, reduce product damage, and lower maintenance needs with durable, well-planned systems.

Our Expertise in Racking Engineering

Precision Warehouse Design approaches racking engineering with a holistic perspective, understanding that the ideal storage solution is unique to every operation. We analyze your inventory characteristics (size, weight, velocity, SKU count), throughput requirements, equipment (forklifts, automation), operational processes (FIFO, LIFO, selective, etc…), and future growth projections to custom-engineer a solution.

Common challenges we solve through advanced racking solutions include:

  • Insufficient storage space or inefficient utilization of existing space.

  • Slow picking and put-away processes due to poor layout.

  • Frequent product damage or safety concerns within storage areas.

  • Inability to adapt to changing inventory profiles or seasonal demand spikes.
