Get a CAD layout with a real position count before anything ships. Call (502) 521-1485." lang: en --- Image: Drive-In Rack system inside a Kentucky warehouse (https://louisvillepalletracks.com/assets/drive-in-hero-CA5gVqly.jpg) Frankfort, Kentucky # Drive-In Rack in Frankfort, Kentucky The same SKU stored in five different places because the rack is only one deep is the most common reason Frankfort warehouses call us. Drive-In Rack addresses that directly, reclaiming the positions a typical institutional and agency storage layout in this market never uses. We start with the building numbers — pallet profile, forklift and clear height — and because this system depends on aisles traded for lanes to push positions per square foot, then hand your Frankfort team a layout with a position count and an itemized quote. Call (502) 521-1485 with the pallet weights and we will size the drive-in rack for Frankfort. (502) 521-1485 ## Why Frankfort Warehouses Work With Us Frankfort operators mixing institutional and agency storage with spirits and barrel-adjacent warehousing usually need one part of the floor dense and another part fully selective. That split is exactly where drive-in rack tends to earn its keep near East Frankfort. For light manufacturing work near East Frankfort, the deciding factor is normally lane dimensions drawn around your specific lift truck. We put that in front of you during the free drive-in rack design consult, with Frankfort position counts for both directions. You also get one point of contact for the whole Frankfort drive-in rack project. The same person who draws the layout quotes the steel, schedules delivery around your Frankfort Industrial Park dock, and plans future additions.

Institutional and agency storage Spirits and barrel-adjacent warehousing Light manufacturing Regional distribution ## 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 The first step is a working list of what has to fit in your Frankfort space: pallet sizes, heaviest load, forklift reach, and how many SKUs need direct access versus drive-in rack depth. The deliverable is a drive-in rack drawing and a priced bill of material: positions, elevations, aisle widths, and capacities for your US 127 corridor building. Since the design turns on lane dimensions drawn around your specific lift truck, we normally include a denser alternative on the same plan so the institutional and agency storage tradeoff is explicit. Drive-In Rack freight is staged to fit East Frankfort access. Experienced installation crews we schedule and manage build from the approved drawing, with the system anchored to the floor, aligned and capacity-tagged. We coordinate phasing around your Frankfort operation and keep one contact for later 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.
