Custom Rivet Span Spool Racks for Wire and Cable Storage
Before
After
A customer needed a better way to store and manage electrical wire spools so technicians could find, pull, and replenish inventory quickly.
The Challenge: Tangled Wire, Poor Visibility, Slow Picks
The existing wire storage setup made it difficult to access spools and even harder to track inventory for technician orders.
Key issues included:
- Tangled wire spools that were hard to reach
- Low visibility into what was in stock
- Slower pulls for technicians in the field
- Inefficient use of available shelving space
The Solution: In-House Fabricated Spool Racks Integrated Into Rivet Span
Western Storage and Handling designed custom spool rack components that integrate into rivet span (boltless) shelving frames. Fabricated in-house at WSH’s Denver facility, the racks were built to match the customer’s spool sizes, quantities, and workflow so wire could be stored cleanly and accessed safely.
Key Features of the Build
- Custom spool rack components fabricated by WSH
- Integrated into rivet span / boltless shelving units
- Configured to match specific spool dimensions and inventory volume
- Improved visual inventory control for faster replenishment
- Shippable to facilities across the continental United States
Results: Faster Access and Easier Inventory Control
The custom spool rack system improved day-to-day efficiency by making wire inventory easy to see, easy to pick, and easier to keep organized.
Project outcomes included:
- Faster technician access to wire and cable
- Cleaner, more organized storage area
- Easier inventory counts and replenishment
- Reduced wasted time searching for materials
- Better workflow for daily pulls and restocking
