Warehouse Design & Layout

We walk your floor, measure the building, and design the racking around how your product actually moves. Free site assessment, CAD drawings, and engineer-stamped plans.

How We Design

Designed Around Your Building, Not a Catalogue

Most warehouses lose money to a layout decision made years ago. The racking fits the building, but it does not fit the operation.

We start on your floor. Clear height to the sprinkler drops, column spacing, dock positions, slab condition, the lift equipment you already run and the aisle widths it needs. Then we look at the product itself: pallet sizes, weights, how many SKUs, how fast they turn.

That gives us a layout with real numbers behind it: pallet positions, bay loads, aisle clearances, and where each system type earns its place. You get CAD drawings you can hand to an engineer, a landlord or an insurer, and a straight answer on what the building can actually take.

  • Free on-site assessment before anyone quotes a number
  • CAD drawings and pallet position counts
  • Capacity planning and engineer-stamped plans
  • New and used options priced side by side
Where It Helps

When a Layout Review Pays Off

You do not need to be buying racking to get value from a proper look at the floor. These are the moments it usually pays for itself.

Before You Sign a Lease

We can tell you how many pallets a building will actually hold before you commit to it. Clear height and column spacing matter far more than the square footage on the listing.

You Are Running Out of Space

Before you rent a second building, find out what the first one can still take. Higher bays, narrower aisles or a denser system often buys another two years.

Picking Has Slowed Down

If your team walks further each year and throughput has not moved, the layout is the bottleneck, not the headcount. Pick faces and staging usually explain it.

Your Product Mix Changed

The racking was designed for the SKUs you had five years ago. Different pallet sizes, weights or turn rates mean the layout is now working against you.

You Need Drawings on Paper

Landlords, insurers, engineers and the Ministry all want documentation. We produce CAD layouts and capacity figures you can hand straight over.

The Assessment Is Free For a Reason

We would rather spend an hour on your floor than guess from a drawing. It means our quote is real rather than an estimate that moves later, and it means we can tell you when the honest answer is a smaller job than you expected, or no job at all. Plenty of clients get a layout from us and do nothing with it for a year. That is fine.

Our Layout Design Process

1

Site Survey

We measure clear height, column placements, and loading door positions on location.

2

Drafting

We generate 2D and 3D CAD schematics mapping out optimal aisle widths and storage zones.

3

Capacity Review

Load weights and material flow paths are calculated to verify structural safety.

4

Engineer Stamp

Final blueprints are officially stamped and prepared for municipal permit approval.

What Is Included?

Every layout package is built to give your team complete technical clarity before any physical construction begins.

  • Free initial on-site facility assessment
  • Detailed 2D and 3D CAD floor plans
  • Pallet capacity and weight distribution reports
  • Engineer stamped drawings for municipal permits

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the initial warehouse layout assessment really free?

Yes. We visit your facility at no cost to evaluate your space, review your product flow, and discuss your storage goals before drafting any plans.

How do you account for building columns and obstructions?

Our CAD technicians map out every structural pillar, fire sprinkler line, and loading door so your racking layout fits seamlessly around existing building constraints.

Can you help secure local building permits?

Absolutely. We provide all the required engineer stamped documentation needed to submit to your local city office for fast permit approval.
