What can you do when you have no more space in the warehouse
but you can’t build, rent, or buy another warehouse?
One smart compromise is rack supported structures.
A rack supported structure is true to its name. It takes a
complete pallet rack system and uses
it as the structural support for a building. Pallet rack and
cantilever rack are placed in a way to hold up the roof and
walls. A concrete slab is used as a floor.
Once you have the land and permits to build a rack supported
structure, you may find it’s a cost-effective option
for the following reasons:
-
You save space because you don’t need support columns
in the building.
-
Just like in a warehouse, your rack supported structure
can be several stories high.
-
Since you don’t need as many building materials, a
rack supported building costs less to build.
-
Pallet rack supported structures are much easier to move
or customize to your changing needs.
-
It’s possible to construct a small or temporary pallet
rack supported structure attached to your existing warehouse
or building.
-
Some tax codes allow pallet rack supported structures to
be written off as an equipment expense.
While they’re not perfect for everyone, pallet rack
supported structures are an interesting option for those who
require more space but can’t move into a new warehouse.
