Pallet Rack for University

THE CLIENT: University of Utah Stadium

Located in the beautiful city of Salt Lake City, Utah 84112, the University of Utah is one of the best universities to attend within Utah. University of Utah also has an enormous stadium where many sporting events take place. This includes popular sports such as football and motorcross.

THE SITUATION:

The University of Utah Stadium was in need of a storage solution that would be sturdy and durable enough for their storage area for their equipment needs. University of Utah Stadium wanted 8' High by 42" Deep by 8' Wide pallet racks. The University also wanted 2 beam levels, with wire decks that would have a 5,000 lbs capacity per level.

THE SOLUTION:

Pallet racks were the best kind of storage for the University of Utah's storing needs, because pallet racks' weight capacity strength is more than regular shelving, such as boltless shelving. Along with those qualities, pallet racks usually have a bigger width, height, and depth to hold bigger volumes of items on pallets or wire shelving. For safety reasons, installation of pallet racks should be done by a professionally trained worker. NationWide Shelving's service staff, A1 Install, was chosen to do the delivery and assembly of the pallet rack system at the University of Utah's Stadium. A1 Install has the qualified training to make sure pallet racks are within Utah's safety codes to pass inspection.

FAB || ROI

The Feature: Wire decking for pallet racks provide additional support for pallet rack beams.

The Advantage: Universities can store more equipment that weighs heavily, such as landscaping materials for ground keeping, or sporting gear such as wrestling mats, football goal posts, artificial grass, and other miscellaneous items that are bulky.

The Benefit: Pallet racks can keep their structural integrity, without university purchasing departments having to worry about stored items being unsafely stored.

Return on Investment: The money that would be spent on replacing stored valued items or replacing shelving, can be prevented from being wasted, which ultimately saves the University of Utah Stadium cash in the long span over time.

ABOUT THE PRODUCT:

Jaken pallet racks are among the top selling storage products for pallet racking systems, in Utah and across the United States. Jaken provides sensational prices to consumers, from small residential customers to large agencies such as the University of Utah. Jaken pallet racks also use great quality material to make their uprights and beams.

All Jaken pallet racks come with inspection passing foot plates (5" x 8") that can be securely fastened to 3" x 3" upright posts and cross beams. Wire decking is also an option, which provides more support for pallet racks. Wire decks from Jaken have a waterfall design that extends over the edge lip of each pallet rack step beam. The waterfall design prevents forklifts from knocking down the wire decks.

From a professional stand point, it is recommend to have wire decking in sections, rather than having one whole wire deck run the entire length of a pallet rack level. The reasoning for this is: wire decking can keep its structural integrity, instead of bending and bowing under the weight of what is being stored.
