Drive-in makes sense only where uniform reserve volume can keep the lanes occupied. For drive-in rack in Citrus Heights, the first step is to compare pallet dimensions, maximum weights, SKU depth and stock rotation with the space you actually have. We show the proposed arrangement in a CAD layout, identify the access it needs and explain the tradeoffs before you approve the work. Send your building measurements and inventory requirements for a free design consultation and an itemized quote. The aim is usable storage that supports your next receipt or shipment, not a position count that only works on paper. (916) 357-9401 ## Why Citrus Heights Warehouses Work With Us Citrus Heights projects should begin with the dimensions of the actual storage area, not assumptions about a large industrial park. Along Auburn Boulevard and Antelope Road, receiving access, adjoining retail or service functions and lower overhead clearances can limit the available rack footprint. I-80 connects the city to regional suppliers, but local unloading space still dictates delivery arrangements. We compare rack height, aisle width and stock access on one drawing, with exits and work zones kept separate from the proposed storage positions. A small Citrus Heights warehouse should not sacrifice most of its access for a few deep pallets. Drive-in makes sense only where uniform reserve volume can keep the lanes occupied. As a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., Sacramento Pallet Racks brings those questions into the consultation before recommending a system. You receive a drawing, an explained scope and a named point of contact. Installation is by experienced installation crews we schedule and manage. Our team handles the permit side for you. Before ordering, we review the proposed position count alongside staging, picking and replenishment access. If two rack types could fit, we explain the storage and rotation tradeoffs rather than choosing from capacity alone. Your receiving hours, available work zones and approval requirements shape a written project plan.

Trade supplies Retail backstock Local distribution ## How Drive-In Rack Works Deep storage lanes replace intermediate access aisles, with the lift truck entering the structure to handle pallets. 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 included in the specification to reduce contact between lift trucks and the rack. ## What a Drive-In Rack Project Includes For the Citrus Heights site, we begin with pallet dimensions, maximum weights, SKU depth and stock rotation. Share photos, available drawings, receiving hours and the part of the floor that must remain open. We check the proposed work against columns, doors, overhead obstructions and handling access. Access around Auburn Boulevard is considered when agreeing delivery and installation arrangements. The design starts with the forklift, not the rack. Mast height, overall width, load backrest, and turning clearance decide lane dimensions, so truck specifications get collected before anything is drawn. Next we look at SKU depth. Drive-in rewards deep lanes of a single product and punishes variety - if a lane never fills, you've built an expensive way to store less than you could have with selective. Where the inventory profile is mixed, we'll usually recommend a hybrid: selective at the pick face, drive-in behind it for reserve. The quote itemizes frames, rails, rail supports, guide rails, and column protection, with a CAD drawing showing lane depth, rail elevations, and total positions. Experienced installation crews we schedule and manage install frames anchored to the floor, level them and align every rail run, then verify a loaded pallet travels the full lane before handing the system over. At handover, you receive the lane layout and load ratings, with a point of contact for capacity questions and future storage additions. Before work at the Citrus Heights building begins, the approved scope identifies responsibility for delivery, installation and any exclusions. Manufacturer documentation and the final configuration establish load ratings; moving a level or reusing a component does not automatically preserve its previous rating. At handover, review the layout and operating limitations with your team, retain the documentation, and keep load plaques available for operators. Scheduling is confirmed for the project rather than promised from a standard turnaround estimate. 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 (916) 357-9401: (916) 357-9401 ## Recent Installations A selection of recent pallet rack installations.
