Updating Mobilized Pallet Racking in a Military Warehouse

Military warehouses need to store a variety of items to keep operations running smoothly. This warehouse on a large military base stores parts and equipment for vehicle maintenance, and its inventory includes large and bulky items like tires and radiators as well as smaller parts like oil filters.

The Solution
Re-Investing in a Valuable Asset

Staff use the Spacesaver system continually every day, so decision-makers at the base decided to proactively update its electronics system rather than face unplanned downtime. They opted for Touch Technology™ Control, which provides an intuitive user interface and allows staff to use a touch screen or remote control to open and close aisles. They also chose the patented Zero Force Sensor® safety control, which uses beams of light to detect the presence of a person or an object in an aisle.

The nearby Spacesaver distributorship sent a crew of factory-certified technicians to replace the electronic components. The crew minimized disruption by leaving stored items on the racking and working around staff’s schedules.

The Result
Refurbished Electronics

Now the system works like new. The military saved money by refreshing and reinvesting in a proven asset, and the new control and safety options make the system safer and even more convenient to use.
