Drive-in pallet rack is one of the more direct ways for a Bardstown building to add capacity without touching the envelope. With the highest density available for a small number of SKUs on the table, the packaging and co-packing operations we work with near Bloomfield Road corridor usually want cost per pallet position, not a lump sum. That is what the drive-in rack layout and itemized quote for a Bloomfield Road corridor building show. Call (502) 521-1485 to start one for Bardstown. (502) 521-1485 ## Why Bardstown Warehouses Work With Us What limits storage in a Springfield Road area facility is usually the layout — a column line in the wrong place, a beam pocket, a restricted equipment route. We work those Bardstown constraints out on paper before quoting steel. Drive-In Rack suits Bardstown buildings for one reason — aisles traded for lanes to push positions per square foot — which matters more here than in a newer big-box facility built around one uniform layout. We talk through that fit during a free design consult before you commit to steel for Bardstown. And you deal with one team throughout — drive-in rack layout, pricing, delivery windows into Bardstown Industrial Park, installation scheduling, and parts after the fact. Nothing about the Bardstown job gets handed to a call center.

Distilling and bottling Packaging and co-packing Food production Manufacturing ## How Drive-In Rack Works No aisles. The forklift enters the structure, and the floor holds more pallets per square foot than any other system. 1 ### Continuous rails, not beams Pallets rest on rails carried by upright frames rather than individual beam levels, so a lane accepts pallet after pallet at the same elevation. 2 ### The truck enters the lane The driver travels inside the bay to place or retrieve each load. Lane width, rail height, and mast clearance get dimensioned to that specific truck, not a generic one. 3 ### One open end or two One open end gives LIFO and the highest density available. Two open ends give FIFO with slightly fewer positions, since each lane now needs clearance from both sides. 4 ### Guarding built into the design Guide rails, column guards, and rail-end protection are part of the spec from the start to help keep trucks aligned and reduce contact with the structure. ## What a Drive-In Rack Project Includes Before drive-in rack is priced for a Bloomfield Road corridor site, we collect the constraints: usable height, column grid, aisle widths your lifts need, and the pallet mix your packaging and co-packing volume actually moves. Next comes the drive-in rack layout itself — every position counted, every level rated, and the Bardstown quote itemized by frame, beam, deck, and accessory. Because aisles traded for lanes to push positions per square foot changes the math, a second configuration on the same floor plan usually comes with it for comparison. Drive-In Rack lead time is confirmed on your quote, and delivery is scheduled around your Bardstown receiving hours. Experienced installation crews we schedule and manage build to the drawing, with the system anchored to the floor, aligned and capacity-tagged. Your team gets a documented layout for future additions. High volume of a small number of SKUs Seasonal or buffer inventory held in bulk Cold storage and freezer rooms where cube matters most Product too fragile to floor-stack more than two high Buildings where floor space, not height, is the binding constraint Call (502) 521-1485: (502) 521-1485 ## Recent Installations Racking projects completed for warehouses across Greater Louisville and Southern Indiana.
