Call (423) 810-5886." lang: en --- Image: Pallet rack rows in a warehouse serving Fort Payne, AL (https://chattanoogapalletrack.com/assets/hero-location-DSM_BmzI.jpg) Fort Payne, Alabama ยท about 50 miles from Chattanooga # Pallet Racks and Carton Flow in Fort Payne, AL Fort Payne is known as the Sock Capital of the World, and hosiery and textile production is still active. Steel joist and deck fabrication off I-59 is the other big storage user. One industry moves small cartons. The other moves long, heavy steel. (423) 810-5886: 4238105886 ## Cartons of Finished Hosiery Hosiery ships in cartons, often many SKUs and sizes. Carton flow rack (https://chattanoogapalletrack.com/products/carton-flow-rack) puts each SKU in its own lane, fed from behind, picked from the front. Full-case reserve sits in selective pallet rack (https://chattanoogapalletrack.com/products/pallet-rack) above or behind the pick line.

Reserve pallet rack sized to peak keeps extra cases off the floor when orders climb. In slow months, those positions hold raw yarn or packaging. Flexible beam levels let the same bays serve both. We plan the pick line and reserve together so restock trips stay short all year. Carton flow lanes can be re-set for new SKUs without removing the frames. ## Joist and Steel Stock Joist chord, angle and deck stock are long and heavy. Cantilever rack (https://chattanoogapalletrack.com/products/cantilever-rack) with arms sized to the bundle keeps material accessible from the side. Some older fabrication buildings have 19 to 20 ft ceilings with overhead cranes. Rack must stay out of the crane path, so we map it first. - Cantilever runs outside crane coverage - Arm capacity matched to bundle weight - Aisles set to side-loader or forklift ## Fort Payne Industrial Park and Access The Fort Payne Industrial Park, 39 acres and an EDPA AdvantageSite, reaches I-59 by Jordan Road and Alabama 35. A Norfolk Southern main line runs beside I-59 and US-11, and Isbell Field has a 5,001-ft runway. ## Low Buildings, Smart Layouts At 19 to 20 ft, most pallet loads stack three high. Carton flow and shelving use the height better for light goods. Changing buildings? Our warehouse relocation (https://chattanoogapalletrack.com/warehouse-relocation) crews move rack and re-lay it to the new space. ## Starting a Fort Payne Plan For hosiery, send carton sizes, SKU counts and peak volumes. For steel, send stock lengths, bundle weights and crane coverage. We draw carton flow, reserve rack and cantilever on one CAD plan and quote each line. Fort Payne Industrial Park buildings can be planned from shell drawings. Installs are phased around your shifts. Each run is anchored to the floor and capacity-labeled. ## Get a Fort Payne Quote Call (423) 810-5886 (4238105886) or send the form. ## Fort Payne Rack FAQs ### How many SKUs fit on a carton flow line? ### Can cantilever go in a building with an overhead crane? ### What fits a 20 ft fabrication building? ### How do you handle seasonal peaks? ### Do you work near Isbell Field or Jordan Road? ## Nearby Towns Scottsboro, AL: https://chattanoogapalletrack.com/service-area/scottsboro Trenton, GA: https://chattanoogapalletrack.com/service-area/trenton LaFayette, GA: https://chattanoogapalletrack.com/service-area/lafayette Jasper, TN: https://chattanoogapalletrack.com/service-area/jasper All Service Areas: https://chattanoogapalletrack.com/service-area ## Hosiery or Steel in Fort Payne?
