Stacking vertically instead of spreading out recovers staging lanes, shortens travel between picks, and cuts the damage that comes with floor-stacked loads. The payoff is measurable: more pallet positions per square foot, cleaner put-away, and less double-handling — bulk SKUs held deep while the pick face stays selective. We design the drive-through racking around your pallets, lift trucks, and clear height, then send a CAD layout with position counts and an itemized quote. Call (513) 957-3017. Get a Free Quote[(513) 957-3017]() ## Why Covington Warehouses Work With Us Warehouses in and around the Covington riverfront tend to be constrained by something specific: a low sprinkler line, tight columns, or a dock that will not take a full truck at once. Those details decide the design. We have been laying out drive-in rack for light manufacturing and beverage and packaging operations in this market as part of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co. since 1997, so the constraints are familiar before we ever draw a bay. And you deal with one team throughout — layout, pricing, delivery windows, installation scheduling, and parts after the fact. Nothing gets handed off to a call center.

The most pallet positions per square foot of floor. 1 ### Rails, not beams Pallets rest on continuous rails carried by upright frames. Rail elevations are set once per level, so the lane accepts pallet after pallet at the same height. 2 ### Forklift enters the lane The driver travels inside the bay to place or retrieve loads. Lane width, rail height, and mast clearance are dimensioned to your specific truck. 3 ### Drive-in versus drive through One open end gives LIFO and the highest density. Two open ends give FIFO with slightly fewer positions, since each lane needs access from both sides. 4 ### Protection built in Guide rails, column guards, and rail-end protection are part of the design, because a lane that gets clipped daily is a lane that needs repairs. ## What a Drive-In Rack Project Includes We start by understanding the operation — pallet profile, equipment, clear height, SKU count, and throughput — because those inputs decide capacity long before any steel is quoted. From there our design team produces a CAD layout showing positions, elevations, and aisle widths, plus an itemized quote so you can see cost per pallet position. Where it helps, we price a second configuration alongside it, with aisles traded for lanes to push positions per square foot, so the tradeoff between density and access is a number instead of an opinion. Common items ship from stock, and we stage deliveries to match your dock. Our installation partners set and anchor the system to the drawing, verify it loaded, and tag it with capacities. We sequence the work zone by zone so receiving and shipping never stop, and we stay reachable for parts, expansions, and repairs afterward.
