Tell us the pallet, the forklift and the ceiling height and we will lay the building out. The onsite visit is free, and it happens before anyone quotes you steel.
Racking for San Bernardino warehouses
Freight in San Bernardino moves more than it sits. Amazon Air placed its western regional hub at San Bernardino International Airport on the former Norton Air Force Base site, and BNSF runs one of its intermodal facilities on West 4th Street in the middle of the Inland Empire market. The buildings around both are doing transload and cross-dock work. Containers come in, freight is broken down, re-sorted and sent back out, often the same day.
That changes what the racking is for. A building whose job is throughput needs a shallow band of selective rack near the dock line to hold sorted freight for the next outbound, floor left open for container tipping and staging, and density only where a single SKU sits long enough to justify a pushback or drive-in bay. Rack placed in the wrong part of that building blocks the dock work the building exists to do, so we lay the aisles out against the door pattern first and fit the storage to what is left.
Approval comes from two separate agencies in this city, one municipal and one county, and we prepare each submittal.
Systems we install in San Bernardino
Selective pallet rack
Every pallet reachable from the aisle. The default where the SKU count is high and the pallet count per SKU is low.
Drive-in rack
Forklift drives into the lane. Highest density per square foot, LIFO rotation, one SKU per lane.
Push-back rack
Two to six pallets deep on nested carts. Density without giving up a lane per SKU.
Cantilever rack
Arms instead of beams, for pipe, lumber, tubing and anything that will not sit on a pallet.
Mezzanines
A second level built inside the building. Adds floor area for storage, picking or work space without moving.
Bulk storage and shelving
Hand-stacked cartons on boltless shelving, with wire decks or particleboard.
We also supply wire decks, conveyors, pallet jacks and more.
Rack inspections in San Bernardino
Forklift impact bends uprights, and a bent upright loses capacity long before it looks dangerous. We inspect racking against the manufacturer’s configuration, classify what we find by severity, and give you a written report.
