Over Dock Door Pallet Racking

An easy way to add storage to your facility without the need for construction, store materials closer to point-of-use, or stage shipments.

Over-Dock Door Pallet Racking is a storage solution designed to maximize vertical space utilization in warehouses with loading docks. These racking systems are installed directly above dock doors, utilizing the often-underutilized space above loading areas. Over dock door racking allows warehouses to capitalize on vertical space, providing additional storage capacity without expanding the footprint of the facility. By storing pallets above dock doors, these systems facilitate efficient loading and unloading operations, ensuring that valuable floor space is not occupied by inventory storage. 

Considerations for a New Over-Dock Door Racking Project:

When planning a new over dock door racking project, several critical factors should be taken into consideration to ensure its effectiveness and safety.

First, it's essential to assess the structural integrity of the building to determine if it can support the weight of the racking system and the stored inventory. Working with structural engineers is recommended to evaluate the load-bearing capacity and ensure compliance with local building codes and regulations.

Second, careful attention should be paid to the layout and design of the racking system to optimize space utilization and accessibility. Factors such as pallet dimensions, aisle widths, and clearances must be considered to facilitate smooth loading and unloading operations while maximizing storage capacity. Additionally, safety measures such as rack protection systems and safety barriers should be implemented to prevent accidents and protect both personnel and inventory.

Finally, selecting a reputable supplier, such as Racking Pros, with expertise in over dock door racking systems is crucial to ensure the project is executed efficiently and meets industry standards for quality and safety.
