Call (269) 390-9036 today." lang: en --- Image: Warehouse racking for Grand Rapids, MI (https://kalamazoopalletrack.com/assets/hero-location-DSM_BmzI.jpg) # Industrial Racking in Grand Rapids, MI We design, quote and install new pallet racks in Grand Rapids for automotive parts, furniture and food warehouses. Our industrial pallet racks are sized to the load, with separate storage plans for long components and dated goods. Grand Rapids is under an hour north of us on US-131, about 50 miles. West Michigan’s industrial base here is known for making and distributing automotive parts, office furniture and food products. Each of those industries stores something different: furniture components that need cantilever rack, auto parts that run heavy, and food that runs on dates. (269) 390-9036: 2693909036 ## Cantilever Rack for Grand Rapids Furniture Components Office-furniture makers handle panels, tube and long extrusions that do not sit well on a pallet beam. Cantilever rack (https://kalamazoopalletrack.com/products/cantilever-rack) loads them from the side with no front post in the way. Arm length matches the depth of the load; upright spacing keeps long pieces from sagging. Arm decking can be added for shorter parts. ## Pallet Racks for High-Volume Auto Parts Auto-parts manufacturing and distribution needs volume: lots of positions, heavy beams, and fast forklift access. Selective pallet rack (https://kalamazoopalletrack.com/products/pallet-rack) in long runs gives access to every part number. We size beams to the heaviest container and plan warehouse racking and staging lanes for outbound loads at the docks. ## Mixing Systems Under One Roof A food distributor in the metro might run flow lanes for dated goods, selective for slow movers and pushback for promotional bulk. A furniture plant might run cantilever for raw components and selective for boxed product. We draw every pallet rack system on a single CAD layout, sized to the building's clear height and column grid, so receiving, reserve and shipping connect without backtracking. Auto-parts distributors often need heavier frames on lower levels where containers of steel parts sit, with lighter levels above for packaging and spares. Moves within the metro come up often too. When a Grand Rapids operation outgrows its building, our warehouse relocation service (https://kalamazoopalletrack.com/warehouse-relocation) redraws the rack for the next one. ## Pallet Flow Rack for Food Distribution Food distributors move dated product. Pallet flow (https://kalamazoopalletrack.com/products/pallet-flow-rack) loads from the back and picks from the front, so the oldest pallet always ships first. Lane depth follows how many pallets of each SKU you hold between deliveries. ## Getting Freight In and Out The metro is served by US-131, I-196 and I-96, plus Gerald R. Ford International Airport. The Grand Elk Railroad runs 123 miles from Grand Rapids to Elkhart, IN, and interchanges with Norfolk Southern, CSX and CN. Rail and truck receiving often sit on different walls. We plan receiving, pallet racking and shipping zones so pallets travel the shortest path through the building. ## Racking Systems for Grand Rapids ### Cantilever Rack Open-front arms for lumber, pipe, tube, bar stock and sheet goods. https://kalamazoopalletrack.com/products/cantilever-rack ### Selective Pallet Rack Every pallet reachable from the aisle.
