more space, less clutter
A large automotive dealership had so many types of parts to store that proper tire storage just wasn’t on their list of priorities. Eventually, the only space left for tires was a small mezzanine above the tire balancing area. It soon became obvious that this method wasn’t going to work. So, they installed a high density system for storing tires in less space without having to expand their facility. (read more about high density storage systems)
traditional VS. high density storage
Limited access to mezzanine space led the auto dealership to store tires by floor stacking and traditional static tire racks. In both of these options, tires had to be manhandled and access selectivity was constricted, which led to smaller inventory sizes. With the increasing size of their business, it became obvious that these methods just weren’t working.
The auto dealership decided to install a high density mobile racking system that would allow them to fully maximize their mezzanine space capacity while still allowing full accessibility. The new high density mobile racking system accommodates existing storage and recovers wasted aisle space with its innovative design, so the dealership saved money by not expanding their facility. The mobile racks have one moving aisle instead of the multiple aisles that are required for static racking, so employees have plenty of space to store and retrieve tires with no hassle. It’s also easy to create an access aisle, with manual, hand crank, and powered options available.
The high-density system was able to double the storage capacity for tires in the same amount of space as static racking. Now the dealership is even able to keep tires for special sales events in stock without sacrificing other inventory items. And the mobile storage racks can store more than just tires: they can also store all types of small, medium, and large or bulky parts, and can also be installed with cabinets, shelves, drawers, and trays for the most efficient storage solution.

Automotive Testimonials
“I just want to take a minute to let you know how good of a job your install crew did yesterday. They were quick, fast, courteous, and very consensus during the installation. They were awesome, to say the least. Being in the service business ourselves, we know that you can never hear the words “Good Job” often enough. Please pass this along to your crew.”
“Thanks for getting our Compact Pallet Rack system completed on time with little disruptions to our operation. Jim did a great job of listening to understand our needs and was able to design a system that works well for us. Kerry and the installation group were great. They were well organized and left the area very clean every day and at the end of the project.”
“We are coming up on a year since we installed the file system here at Bill Heard Chevrolet, and we continue to be more than happy with the outcome. The barcode tracking software system tracks the documents for us and is easy to maintain and use. There is something to be said about keeping things simple. We really like the way it interfaces with our software and populates fields for us automatically on a daily basis. Your guidance in the project was the best deal of all though. Your help in the setup and advice on what would work and what might not work saved us a lot of time and money. Again, thanks so much for your help and count on us as another satisfied customer.”
