Warehouse Space Planning

Warehouse Space Planning consists of helping customers make high-level decisions about moves, growth, consolidations, and new warehouses.  We help gather some basic information about the current operations, projected changes (growth), potential differences in clear height, etc.  Once the information is analyzed, the customer can feel confident in knowing how much space they will need.  For example, Customer XYZ plans to consolidate Warehouse A @ 24’ Clear and Warehouse B @ 18’ clear into a new 32’ clear Space along with 10% growth over the next 5 years.  AKMHS can help you calculate how much space is needed to make a confident decision.

10 Reasons To Work With Us On Space Planning

  We’re experts on cantilever, structural, pushback, pallet flow, selective, and we help you determine which style is right for your operations. As we always say, no one rack system is right for everyone. We’ll use our experience and product knowledge to advise you on the type of rack system that will result in your optimal warehouse storage solution.
• Work Mezzanines, Platforms, and Modular Offices Are In Our Arsenal
  Have you considered a modular office or work platform? It’s often a better idea to make full use of the space you have before looking elsewhere. We can engineer work platforms and install modular offices that make use of your available space and integrate with your current operations.

  We provide detailed CAD drawings for your building, each of which provides a unique layout and design option. Can you create CAD drawings? If not, you’ll want someone to do it. It’s an important part of the warehouse design process, and our systems design specialists have decades of experience doing it.
• Provide With High-Density Storage Rack Options
  We allow you to make the most of the space you have. The more product you can store in a given amount of space, the greater the density. We specialize in maximizing your warehouse density to make your money go further.

• Warehouse Racking Code and Local Regulation Expertise
  There is perhaps no worse scenario than building a rack system and having to tear it down later because it doesn’t meet the state and local codes. Don’t let it happen – we know codes, and we’ll design your system to meet them.

  If you’ve got a pallet rack system you want to replace, we will tear it down for you and deduct the value of it from the cost of your new system.
