Custom Fabricated Bin Storage Integrated Into Pallet Rack System

The Challenge: Store Heavy Garage Door Components Safely and Efficiently

Wayne-Dalton needed a specialized storage solution for large garage door springs that were difficult to organize using standard warehouse storage equipment. The facility required a system that would safely store heavy components, improve daily order picking efficiency, and integrate with existing pallet rack infrastructure.

Off-the-shelf storage solutions could not meet the required specifications for size, weight capacity, or accessibility. The client needed a fully customized system designed for their workflow and operational demands.

The Solution: Custom Fabricated Bin Sections and Heavy-Duty Workstation

Western Storage and Handling designed and fabricated custom steel bin sections engineered to integrate directly into existing heavy-duty pallet racking. The custom bins provide organized, secure storage for large garage door springs while allowing quick access for daily picking operations.

WSH’s in-house fabrication department handled the project from concept through installation, ensuring the system met exact performance requirements.

The solution included:

• Custom fabricated bin sections integrated into pallet rack bays
• Secure bin cages locked into the rack structure for stability
• Particle board bin bases to prevent product movement
• Heavy-duty custom steel workstation designed for high weight loads
• Full delivery and professional installation

The entire project was completed within a six-week lead time.

The Results: Improved Order Picking and Safer Heavy Product Storage

The custom storage system improved warehouse organization and streamlined order fulfillment processes. Heavy components are now securely stored, easier to access, and better protected during handling.

Key outcomes include:

• Faster and more efficient order picking
• Safer storage for heavy garage door springs
• Improved inventory organization
• Custom solution tailored to workflow requirements
• Durable system built for long-term use

By leveraging custom fabrication, the client achieved a storage solution that could not be accomplished with standard equipment.
