What determines the price of pallet rack in Sanford?

Price depends on pallet positions, rack height, beam capacity, decking, freight, and installation. Send your pallet size, heaviest load per level, clear height, and building size for a free CAD layout and an itemized quote for new material.

Which rack system fits my inventory?

Selective teardrop rack is the starting point for mixed SKUs; pushback stores 2–6 pallets deep, LIFO by SKU, while pallet flow serves FIFO and dated stock. Drive-in suits bulk storage with few SKUs, cantilever holds long loads, and carton flow serves case picking. We compare the systems against your pallet mix and picking pattern before you order.

What aisle width do I need?

Aisle width is set by the lift truck: counterbalance trucks generally need about 12–13 feet, reach trucks about 8–10 feet, and very-narrow-aisle trucks about 5–6 feet. We confirm the truck specifications and load dimensions before drawing aisles, because aisle width drives storage density more than almost anything else.

Can you calculate my warehouse's pallet capacity?

The count depends on clear height, aisle width, and the forklift you operate. Our free CAD layout gives you the exact position count for the proposed configuration before you buy, using your building dimensions and actual pallets.

How much weight can pallet rack hold?

There is no single capacity that applies to every rack: beam capacity is rated per pair, per level, while frame capacity depends on height and beam spacing. We size beams and frames from your heaviest pallet and provide load plaques for the finished configuration.

Most regional distribution and light manufacturing operations in Sanford outgrow the layout before they outgrow the building, usually starting with a tourism-driven peak season that doubles pallet counts for four months of the year. Drive-In Rack is the system we reach for when the floor is full but the air above the SR-46 industrial zone racks is not.

We take the pallet weights, lift truck, and usable height from your Orlando Sanford International Airport area site, weigh it against bulk SKUs held deep while the pick face stays selective, and come back with a drawing, a position count, and a priced bill of material. Call (407) 743-8726.

Why Sanford Warehouses Work With Us

Sanford operators mixing regional distribution with light manufacturing usually need one part of the floor dense and another part fully selective. That split is exactly where drive-in rack tends to earn its keep near the Orlando Sanford International Airport area.

That is part of why drive-in rack fits Sanford operations: the highest density available for a small number of SKUs. A short design consult tells you quickly whether that tradeoff works for your SKUs, or whether another system carries more of the load in a Rinehart Road footprint.

Clear coordination matters on a Sanford project: scheduled freight, a direct answer on a drive-in rack revision, and one contact for planning future positions.

How Drive-In Rack Works

No aisles. The forklift enters the structure, and the floor holds more pallets per square foot than any other system.

Continuous rails, not beams

Pallets rest on rails carried by upright frames rather than individual beam levels, so a lane accepts pallet after pallet at the same elevation.

The truck enters the lane

The driver travels inside the bay to place or retrieve each load. Lane width, rail height, and mast clearance get dimensioned to that specific truck, not a generic one.

One open end or two

One open end gives LIFO and the highest density available. Two open ends give FIFO with slightly fewer positions, since each lane now needs clearance from both sides.

Guarding built into the design

Guide rails, column guards, and rail-end protection are part of the spec from the start, to help protect the structure from forklift contact.

What a Drive-In Rack Project Includes

Every Sanford drive-in rack project begins with the numbers: what you store, how heavy it is, what lifts it, and how tall the usable space is. That Sanford conversation happens over the phone and usually takes about fifteen minutes.

The deliverable is a drive-in rack drawing and a priced bill of material: positions, elevations, aisle widths, and capacities for your SR-46 industrial zone building. Since the design turns on the highest density available for a small number of SKUs, we normally include a denser alternative on the same plan so the regional distribution tradeoff is explicit.

New drive-in rack components are priced with a confirmed lead time, and we stage deliveries to match your Rinehart Road dock. Experienced installation crews we schedule and manage set the system according to the Sanford drawing, anchored to the floor, verify it loaded, and tag capacities. Work is sequenced zone by zone so Sanford receiving and shipping never stop, and we stay reachable for drive-in rack layout revisions and added lanes.
