Case Studies

Drive In Pallet Rack

These Double-Deep Drive In Pallet Racks, made by our proud partnership with Interlake, were recently installed in Denver, CO for a meats and food distribution company.  What makes this project unique is getting the maximum utilization with a very low ceiling clearance; not to mention that the materials had to be lifted in by CRANE, then manually carried into the facility.  An easy-feet to handle for our Material Handling Professionals at WSH! Do you have an awkward or hard-to-access space?  Contact us for your free, no obligation consultation!  

Free-Standing Mechanical Vertical Lift

This Mechanical Freight Lift manufactured by Autoquip was recently installed in Denver, CO and what makes this unique is that it is completely FREE-STANDING. This 12' x 8'  vertical lift had to be designed to fit and be contained within the existing concrete shaft, yet could not be bolted to the walls or undermine the current integrity of the structure.  Completely free-standing, bolted only to the foundation, this mechanical lift has a 12,000 lb weight capacity to move freight and inventory between floors.  The vertical gate minimizes OSHA clearance requirements vs a swinging or hinged gate entrance / exit.

Tunnel Bay Pallet Rack

What's a "Tunnel Bay"? A tunnel bay is factored into long stretches of pallet rack, by simply eliminating the bottom-floor pallet locations;  this allows both foot traffic and forklifts to travel less distances, vs going all-the-way-around the warehouse to access or replenish products. This "tunnel"  increases productivity without compromising vertical storage space and pallet positions, by otherwise adding another isle into the footprint of valuable real estate.  Contact us today to see how our professionals can maximize your warehouse!

Autoquip VRC (Vertical Reciprocating Conveyor)

VRCs or Vertical Reciprocating Conveyors are the perfect solution in warehouses for getting heavy pallet loads and materials to 2nd or 3rd floor storage platforms without the use or costly construction of an elevator.  VRCs minimize the investment of floor space and can move large and heavy loads vertically to your storage and processing operations. Riders are not allowed on these VRCs which are similar to a freight elevator. This fully hydraulic,  Autoquip VRC was recently installed by WSH in Centennial, Colorado and safely moves materials between floors with a 3,000 lb weight capacity per load.  Would you like more...

Fatigue Mats

Fatigue mats are essential in your warehouse for employees that are standing long periods of time.  Fatigue mats add compression barriers to soften the impact on the lower body, lower back, legs and feet especially if the base flooring is concrete.  These anti-fatigue mats will reduce employee stress, lower body and leg fatigue as well as overuse injuries (such as shin splints).  WSH offers a full range of options including full installation.  WSH doesn't just sell products, we offer SOLUTIONS!
