RACK 101: Know Your Space Before You Buy

Before you buy a single piece of rack, measure your space. It sounds obvious until you've made the mistake.

The numbers you need:
Ceiling height. Your rack height plus the load on top needs clearance. Most sprinkler codes require 18 inches between the top of your load and the sprinkler head. Check before you buy tall.

Floor space. Map out your bays and your aisles. A standard selective rack bay is about 8 to 10 feet wide. Forklifts need 10 to 12 feet of aisle to operate safely. Hand pallet jacks need less, but they still need room.

Floor condition. Rack anchors into concrete. If your floor is cracked, uneven, or has a coating, know that before installation day.

A quick sketch on paper beats a return shipment every time.

Not sure what configuration works for your space? Our team at Capital Industrial works through this every day. Send us a message and we'll point you in the right direction.

📢 Company Update

We're excited to share that we have officially moved to a new location and are currently updating our address and related business information across all platforms and communications.

We also recognize that many organizations have recently experienced cybersecurity incidents involving fraudulent emails related to address changes, banking information updates, and vendor impersonation. Because of this, we want to proactively confirm that any communication from our team regarding our relocation is legitimate.

If you receive an email about our new address and would like to verify the information, please feel free to contact your sales representative directly.

Thank you to our customers, partners, and team members for your continued trust and support as we begin this next chapter.

If you've never bought pallet rack or shelving before, the options can get confusing fast. New or used? Which system fits your space? What's actually safe to buy secondhand? In the upcoming weeks, we will be posting a short series covering the basics. The stuff we wish every first-time buyer knew before they started shopping. First up in our series: Used vs New

A lot of first-time buyers assume used rack means beat-up rack. That's not how it works. Used pallet rack is graded, inspected, and resold every day by warehouses that upgraded, downsized, or closed. When it's been properly inspected, it holds the same loads and does the same job as new. What to look for before you buy used: No bent or cracked uprights. A bent upright is a compromised upright.

Welds are intact. Look at the base plates and brace connections.
Safety pins are present. Small detail, easy to miss, easy to replace.
Hole pattern is consistent. Mixing manufacturers causes fitment problems (more on that in a later post).

New rack makes sense when you need a specific configuration, a long lead time is fine, or you want everything to match out of the box. Used rack makes sense when you need it fast, you're watching your budget, or you just need functional over perfect. We keep a rotating inventory of inspected used rack at capitalrack.net. If your project is bigger than a few bays, our team at Capital Industrial can take it from there. Browse what's in stock at capitalrack.net.

Checked in on a warehouse decommission yesterday. Our client had a hard date and needed to move FAST.
They called us because we had worked together before and they knew we could get the job done on time, safely, and right.
We are right on schedule and things are looking great.
If you have a building to clear and a deadline attached to it-that’s exactly the kind of job we do. Reach out and we can talk through it.
