Customized Racking Systems

RACKsteel’s customized pallet racking systems are engineered for facilities with non-standard operational, dimensional, or load requirements. These systems are designed for applications where standard pallet racking configurations are not suitable due to space constraints, load requirements, or operational complexity.

Customized racking solutions are developed to meet site-specific performance, load requirements, safety, and compliance requirements across Canada.

Engineering and Fabrication

Our team of engineers at RACKsteel offers end-to-end engineering and fabrication support for customized racking projects. Our capabilities include:

In-house drafting and layout development
Engineered load design and capacity verification
Steel fabrication for custom components
Seismic and structural compliance review

Custom-fabricated components may include modified upright heights, non-standard beam lengths, reinforced bracing patterns, specialty base plates, and structural members designed for increased loads or environmental conditions.

Factory-Direct and Large-Scale Installations

Factory-direct manufacturing options are available for large-scale installations requiring high-volume production of standardized or custom racking components. RACKsteel manages the engineering, procurement, and installation phases.

All systems are designed and supplied in accordance with applicable with National Building Code of Canada 2025 and site-specific requirements.

Applications

Many warehouses use customized racking systems when standard racking systems are not suitable due to space constraints, load requirements, or operational complexity. Customized system designs are developed based on equipment specifications, SKU characteristics, throughput requirements, and long-term scalability objectives. Customized racking systems are commonly specified for:

High-density storage environments
Automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS)
Narrow-aisle and space-optimized facilities
Storage of irregular, oversized, or extra-heavy materials
