Drive-In Rack is built for exactly that situation — it turns the unused clear height in a Mall Road industrial area building into working pallet positions instead of aisle. We size the drive-in warehouse racking around your pallets, your lift trucks, and the clear height in your Mall Road industrial area building, factoring in the highest density available for a small number of SKUs. You get a drawing and a line-item price for the Mall Road industrial area site, not a rough estimate. Call (513) 957-3017 and we will start a Florence layout.

Those details decide a Florence design, not a standard drawing. As part of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., we have designed storage for air freight and logistics and auto parts distribution operators around Turfway Road since 1997 — enough history that aisles traded for lanes to push positions per square foot rarely surprises us mid-project. We also keep the Florence drive-in rack layout on file, so adding a bay next year or replacing a bent frame does not start from scratch.

The forklift enters the structure, and the floor holds more pallets per square foot than any other system. 1 ### 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. 2 ### 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. 3 ### 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. 4 ### Guarding built into the design Guide rails, column guards, and rail-end protection are part of the spec from the start, because a lane that takes daily contact from forklifts is a lane that will eventually need repair. ## What a Drive-In Rack Project Includes Every Florence 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 Florence conversation happens over the phone and usually takes about fifteen minutes. From there our design team produces a CAD drive-in rack layout showing positions, elevations, and aisle widths for your Florence floor plan, plus an itemized quote so you see cost per pallet position. Where it helps, we price a second configuration on the same plan, 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. Load ratings for each drive-in rack level are documented in the Florence drawing, not guessed in the field. Common drive-in rack items ship from stock, and we stage deliveries to match your Mall Road industrial area dock. Installation partners set and anchor the system to the Florence drawing, verify it loaded, and tag capacities. Work is sequenced zone by zone so Florence receiving and shipping never stop, and we stay reachable for drive-in rack parts, added lanes, and repairs.
