A Ferry Good Service from RediRack – Roadferry Limited

The original racking scheme stored pallets 4 high with wide aisle access. These racks provided capacity for 1130 pallets. However these were soon filled. In late summer 2004, Roadferry Limited, working closely with Axis Scotland Limited, completely re-designed the warehouse, as two, large, potential customers were very interested in utilising the facility.

Work refitting the warehouse began in October 2004. The racks were moved to a narrow aisle configuration to work with the Trans Lift Bendi trucks, and the frames were extended from 5.4 metres to over 7 metres high. This added an additional beam level and together with the additional runs of racking, took the storage system capacity to 2470 pallets.

William Hart, General Manager of Roadferry Limited, said, “Axis Scotland Limited was very helpful in supplying drawings and suggesting various layouts and methods of storing the pallets. We were very pleased with the service, and the installation was problem-free. The new racking has increased our storage facility without using more floor space. We intend to use Axis Scotland Limited and RediRack for any future storage requirements.”
