Sideloaders and Racking Systems for Metal Service Centers
Productive, efficient and reliable material handling solutions.
Design Storage makes smart use of limited space. Our sheet steel storage systems, steel coil material handling and bar and pipe racking systems fully use existing floor space and save time in Metal Service Centers. Keep employees and product safe by using our quality equipment.
We have held a dominating position in metal service centers with our combined experience in racking systems and narrow aisle side loading forklifts. By using sideloaders, rack systems can be placed closer together. This allows for a more efficient warehouse design and a safer metal storage system.
