Think pallet racking is only for massive warehouses?

Not even close.

We work with machine shops, contractors, manufacturers, auto shops, and small warehouses all the time. You don't need 100,000 square feet to benefit from a better storage setup.

If you're running out of room, stacking things on the floor, or spending too much time moving inventory around, there's a good chance a rack system could help.

The best part? It doesn't have to be complicated. Show us your space. Tell us what you're storing. We'll help you figure out what makes sense for your operation and your budget.

Sometimes a few racks can make a shop feel twice as organized.

What kind of business are you running, we're here to help!

If you're still stacking pallets on the floor because "we'll get to the racking eventually" ...THIS is your sign.

It doesn't have to be a big project. A few bays of used rack can change how your whole operation runs, and it's a lot more affordable than most people expect.

A lot of people overbuy on depth.

If your pallet is 48 inches deep, you don't need 48-inch uprights. You need deep enough to support the pallet with a little overhang on each side. Where people get tripped up is buying for the pallet instead of the load.

If you're not sure what size you actually need, we can help you figure it out before you order.

Used rack gets a bad reputation it doesn't always deserve.

If it was pulled clean from a facility that upgraded, inspected, and has no visible damage, it's going to hold your pallets just fine. Same load capacity. Fraction of the cost.

We stock and sell both new and used. Come see what we have or reach out and tell us what you need. capitalrack.net

Ryan showed up on install day to the wrong uprights.

Instead of stopping, he redirected to another area and kept working while the freight company went back for the right material. No downtime and the customer never felt a thing.

We sell material, but when a project needs more than that, we handle it. When something goes sideways, we take care of it before it becomes your problem.

A satisfied customer at the end of the job is the goal. When they come back, that's them saying thank you.

Need material only or the full project handled? We do both.

Whether you're a first time buyer or pro, it's important to prep your floor before your rack shows up.

Mark out where each upright will sit using chalk line or painter's tape. Double check your aisle widths while you're at it- it's a lot easier to adjust a chalk line than a fully assembled bay.

If you're anchoring to concrete, locate any floor drains, post-tension cables, or conduit runs before you drill. A quick call to whoever poured the slab can save you an expensive mistake.

Stack your delivery zone close to the door but out of the way of where you're building. Rack ships heavy and you don't want to be moving bundles of beams across the warehouse twice.

Truth be told, thirty minutes of prep work on the front end usually cuts your install time in half.

Need help planning the layout before you order? Our team at Capital Industrial can put together a rack plan that takes the guesswork out of it. Message us and we'll be happy to help

Rack 101: Not all rack beams fit all uprights.

Yes, you read that right...Manufacturers use different hole patterns such as teardrop, keystone, and slotted. They are not interchangeable. Buying beams from one brand and uprights from another usually ends up with parts that don't fit.

If you're adding to an existing system, know your brand before you order. Pro tip: a photo of your current upright goes a long way.

Not sure what you have? Send us a message. We'll help you figure it out before you buy.

Rack 101: Forklifts matter.

Know your forklift's max lift height before you buy uprights.

Your ceiling might be 20 feet, BUT....your forklift might only reach 16. Buying tall uprights to use every inch of vertical space only works if your equipment can actually get there safely.

A lot of buyers overbuy on upright height without ever checking their lift capacity first.

Before you configure your rack, know three numbers: ceiling height, max lift height, and the clearance you need above the forks at full extension.

Our team at Capital Industrial can help you design a rack layout with shelf elevations that match your equipment. No wasted height, no wasted money.
