Ever since Malcolm Gladwell wrote in his book Outliers that it takes 10,000 hours of practice to become an expert at something, the statement has been extremely popular to use when explaining the importance of time and effort when mastering a skill — including warehouse layout planning. We won’t try to claim that that’s 100% accurate, but we’ll assume it’s pretty close to the amount of time someone has to spend deliberately doing something until they get really, really good at it. We also won’t make you do any math — that’s our job — but 10,000 hours is just over 416 days, or close to one year and two months.
With those figures in mind, it’s all the more impressive that our systems design specialists (warehouse designers) have over 80 years of combined experience with warehouse storage layout design. 80 years. Granted, these guys haven’t spent the entirety of each day during those eighty years doing warehouse layout and systems design. So, using the standard workday length, we’ll divide that by 3, bringing us to about 26 and a half years. That’s a lot more than 416 days per warehouse designer. You can see where we’re going with this.
Professional Warehouse Layout and Design
When it comes to consultation, designing, warehouse blueprint planning, and executing a custom-engineered pallet rack system, the “expert factor” trumps all else. Being an expert in warehouse layout planning is what allows a rack system to be completely optimized to suit individual demands and prevents common errors, such as miscalculations. Our systems design specialists are adept at what they do and offer various benefits that you won’t get should you forego professional consultation. Always choose someone who knows how to design a warehouse layout well to prevent any mishaps or dangerous storage scenarios.
Technology
At AK Material Handling Systems, we’re committed to utilizing the latest and most advanced CAD technology, offering you the most detailed, accurate warehouse blueprints and giving us an edge over the competition.
Skills
When it comes down to it, people who do something for a living possess skills in that area to a greater degree than a layperson. Our systems design specialists are no different, except in the fact that the discrepancy is even greater, as pallet rack system design is a highly technical skill. These same skills produce a customized rack system that offers greater benefit than one designed by a non-specialist.
Professionalism
When you hire AK Material Handling Systems to design a new rack system for your warehouse, you can expect an experience that’s as professional as it is customer-centric when designing your warehouse layout plan.
Acute attention to detail and in-depth installations
When it comes to custom-engineered rack system design, details are everything. Small details can make an enormous difference in warehouse operations, and our specialists keep this in mind when designing your rack system. When it comes time to execute and install the planned rack system, our specialists continue to stick with you every step of the way, right up to the finish.
In the world of custom rack system design, expertise goes a long way. A new rack system is an investment, and you want it to be a smart one.
