TBCrackIn warehouses, safety is of the utmost importance.  Tier-Rack understands that and helps with their perforated deck racks.  They allow water to sluice through, to help reach fires and other emergencies more easily in case of catastrophe. Perforated deck meets fire codes by allowing water from overhead sprinklers to pass through to the stack racks below and protect the side walls. The ratio of holes to solid deck gives good support to the tires and will not leave marks on the tires in the portable rack.

Another style of stacking rack uses wire mesh decking. This decking is less expensive than perforated metal decking and has larger openings in the deck. This is a good option if your tires are in and out of your warehouse rack frequently and the wire deck doesn't have time to leave marks on your product. Naturally, the least expensive portable stack rack for tires has no decking at all. The inner and outer rack beams are located so they support the tires. This works best if you do not have people standing on the rack as they load or unload the tires, since the rack beams do not provide as secure a work surface as a deck does.

Our center post Tier-Rack® tire stacking frame is a popular alternative for those who appreciate the ease of loading and unloading tires when there are no obstructions on the corners of the stack racks. These tire racks are also the least expensive storage solution for tires  available. The frames easily attach to your existing warehouse pallets and will hold loads of 2,000 pounds per pallet when the racks are stacked five high.

Tier-Rack Corp of St. Louis, MO has been providing custom designed and manufactured tire racks since 1955.  Tier-Rack has created hundreds of customized racks for every shape and size of tire, using wire mesh and perforated decking to support the tires while keeping them from warping during long periods of non-use.  Let us show you how our years of manufacturing experience can provide you with quality earthmoving machine tire racks at a very affordable price.

Do you run a warehouse?  If so, you know that running a warehouse is a complicated job.  Between maintaining schedules and keeping people working, making the warehouse easily accessible and safe is the main task.  Rotating old stock forward, keeping aisles clear, and ensuring that the stock is stored in a way that the items don't become damaged are all vital components to success.

Rack1Maintaining this balance is vital in storage warehouses that keep tires; tire shops, big box stores, auto repair shops, and any business that repairs their own vehicles.  These shops need to have their stock readily available. Their customers need to have their vehicles fixed, and moving the customers in and out quickly can make all of the difference in staying open and going out of business. Tires also have specialized storage needs. Storing them correctly physically keeps them from warping, which can lead to blowouts and lawsuits.
