Designed around the site, stock and operation
A strong pallet racking project starts with the building and the operating brief. Buying equipment before checking loads, access, services and workflow usually creates avoidable compromise.
Pallet dimensions, weights, stock rotation and forklift type matter more than headline bay count. Somerset operations range from food and manufacturing to regional distribution, so stock profile and material handling vary widely. A survey lets us model the available footprint and compare a simple adjustable layout with denser systems such as narrow aisle, drive-in, double deep or push-back racking.
Spacial Awareness supplies and installs across Taunton, Wellington, Bridgwater, Yeovil, Frome and the whole county from Wellington, Somerset. We provide a defined layout and quotation, with related mezzanine, protection and fit out work available where the project needs it.
What the Somerset proposal should resolve
Layout before steel
Aisles, pallet dimensions, handling equipment, clear height and throughput determine the system.
New and quality used options
We can compare new equipment with compatible used components where provenance and condition are suitable.
System choice
Wide aisle, narrow aisle, drive-in, double deep and push-back each trade selectivity against density.
Safe load information
The design and load information must match the actual system, components and configuration.
Phased installation
Work zones and delivery sequences are agreed around live warehouse operations.
Expansion planning
The layout should preserve sensible routes for future bays, mezzanines or picking areas.
Racking layouts for the M5, A303 and county distribution corridors
Somerset warehouses range from logistics units at Express Park in Bridgwater and Westpark 26 near Wellington to manufacturing and trade premises around Taunton, Yeovil, Frome and Weston-super-Mare. A county-wide racking service needs to account for those different stock profiles rather than repeating one bay schedule.
Density where it earns its place
Wide-aisle adjustable pallet racking is often the flexible baseline, but it is not automatically the best answer. Bulk stock may justify drive-in racking; high SKU counts and fast access can suit conventional or narrow-aisle layouts; deeper storage may support double-deep or push-back systems.
We model the system against pallets, handling equipment, aisle requirements, throughput and the actual building.
Indicative pricing and used stock
Standard new wide-aisle racking may begin around £80-£120 per pallet position supplied and installed, while suitable used systems may begin around £50-£70. Dense systems cost more per position but can release more capacity from the same footprint.
Used equipment is only quoted where the manufacturer, dimensions, condition and load requirements can be matched. Review the used pallet racking service for the checks involved.
What to send before the survey
A racking quotation becomes more accurate when the supplier understands both the stock and the handling operation. Dimensions alone cannot show whether a bay layout will work safely or productively.
Pallet profile
Maximum pallet width, depth, height and weight, including overhang and irregular loads.
Stock behaviour
SKU count, pallets per SKU, replenishment frequency and first-in, first-out requirements.
Forklift details
Truck type, turning circle, lift height, mast clearance and any future equipment change.
Building information
Clear height, column grid, doors, services, slab condition and available drawings.
Operational targets
Required pallet positions, daily movements, staging, picking and growth forecast.
Existing equipment
Manufacturer labels, beam sections, connector photographs and load notices where an extension is proposed.
We can then compare layouts on usable pallet positions, selectivity and workflow. The aim is not to sell the densest system by default, but to identify the arrangement that supports the real operation with a clear route for installation and future change.
Photographs and a simple marked-up plan are useful at enquiry stage, but they do not replace a measured survey. Any final design, load or compliance decision must be based on verified site information.
Pallet Racking Somerset FAQs
Yes. We plan projects across Taunton, Wellington, Bridgwater, Yeovil, Frome and the whole county from our Wellington base. Survey timing depends on scope and travel, and we confirm this before booking.
Usually, yes. The survey identifies access, traffic routes, working hours and exclusion zones so installation can be phased around the operation.
After survey and design, the quotation defines the included equipment, installation, protection and optional works. Changes are agreed before manufacture or mobilisation.
Yes. Coordinating storage, access, offices, fire measures and the mezzanine structure usually produces a better layout and fewer site interfaces.
