Associated has the experts to help you determine the best way to maximize your usable vertical and horizontal warehouse storage space.
Why rent or buy additional storage space when it may already be in your current warehouse?

  • Storage and Structures, Storage, Warehouse, Material Handling

    Automated Storage & Retrieval Systems

    A rack structure in which loading and unloading of the racks is accomplished by a stacker crane, or similar vehicle, without the aid of an on-board operator.

  • Cantilever Racking

    Cantilever Rack

    A rack structure comprised primarily of vertical columns, extended bases, horizontal arms projecting from the face of the columns, and down-aisle bracing between columns.

    There can be shelf beams between arms depending on the product being stored. Cantilever columns may be free-standing or overhead tied.

  • Case Flow Racking

    Case-Flow Rack

    A specialized pallet rack structure in which either the horizontal shelf beams support case-flow lanes or case-flow shelf assemblies are supported by the upright frames.

    The case-flow lanes or shelves are installed at a slight pitch permitting multiple-depth case or box storage with loading from one service aisle and unloading or picking from another service aisle.

  • Drive-in Rack

    Drive-In Rack

    A rack structure comprised primarily of vertical upright frames, horizontal support arms, and horizontal load rails typically used for one-wide by multiple-depth storage.

    This structure includes an 'anchor section' with horizontal beams supporting the load rails. Loading and unloading within a bay must be done from the same aisle.

    A two-way drive-in rack is a special case where back-to-back rows of drive-in racks are combined into a single entity with a common rear post. Suitable for last-in, first-out (LIFO) products.

  • Drive-Thru Racking

    Drive-Through Rack

    A rack structure comprised primarily of vertical upright frames, horizontal support arms, and horizontal load rails typically used for one-wide by multiple-depth storage.

    This structure lacks the 'anchor section' found in drive-in racks; therefore, loading and unloading from can be accomplished from both ends of a bay. Suitable for first-in, first-out (FIFO) products.

  • Movable Shelving

    Movable Shelf Rack

    A rack structure comprised primarily of vertical upright frames and horizontal shelf beams and typically used for one-deep pallet or hand-stack storage. Typically, the locations of a couple of shelf levels are 'fixed' with the location of the in-fill shelves being flexible.

  • Pallet Flow Racking

    Pallet Flow Rack

    A specialized pallet rack structure in which the horizontal shelf beams support pallet-flow lanes. The pallet-flow lanes are typically installed on a slight pitch permitting multiple-depth pallet storage with loading from one service aisle and unloading from another service aisle.

  • Pallet Racking

    Pallet Rack

    A rack structure comprised primarily of vertical upright frames and horizontal shelf beams and typically used for one and two-deep pallet storage.

  • Portable Stack Racking

    Portable Rack (Stacking Frames)

    An assembly, typically with four corner columns, that permits stacking of one assembly on top of another without applying any additional load to the product being stored on each assembly.

  • Push Back Rack

    Push-Back Rack

    A specialized pallet rack structure in which the horizontal shelf beams support push-back lanes comprised of tracks and carts.

    The push-back lanes are installed on a slight pitch permitting multiple-depth pallet storage. Loading and unloading are done from the same service aisle by pushing the pallets back.

  • Stacker Racking

    Stacker Rack

    A rack structure similar to one of the other rack structures that is serviced by an automated storage and retrieval machine.
