Custom AGrack Solutions: Built for Your Exact Material Handling Workflow

Every material handling operation is unique. Your facility has specific forklift models, unique ceiling heights, special product dimensions, and unique workflow requirements that off-the-shelf racks simply can’t accommodate. Trying to force a standard rack into your custom workflow leads to inefficiency, damage, and safety risks. That’s why we offer fully custom AGrack solutions engineered specifically for your exact operational requirements. Request Custom Design

Why Off-The-Shelf Racks Fail for Unique Operations

Standard, one-size-fits-all racks are designed for the most common use cases, but they fail for operations with unique requirements:

• Special Product Dimensions: If you work with oversized glass sheets, custom stone slabs, or unusual door and window sizes, standard racks simply won’t fit your product, leading to damage or inefficient use of space.
• Unique Forklift Configurations: If your facility uses specialized forklifts with non-standard fork widths or reach heights, standard rack fork pockets won’t work, leading to safety risks and inefficient operation.
• Specific Workflow Requirements: If you need to integrate racks with automated production equipment, overhead crane systems, or specialized installation processes, standard racks won’t have the features you need.
• Extreme Environment Requirements: If you operate in extreme cold, high heat, or corrosive coastal environments, standard rack finishes and materials won’t hold up long-term.

Our custom AGrack design service solves all these problems, with racks engineered specifically for your exact operational needs, no matter how unique.

Our Custom AGrack Design Process

We work with you through every step of the design process to ensure your custom racks perfectly match your requirements:

Step 1: Operational Assessment

Our engineering team starts with a full assessment of your operation, including:

• Your product dimensions and weight characteristics
• Your material handling equipment (forklifts, cranes, vacuum lifters)
• Your facility layout, ceiling heights, and door widths
• Your specific workflow requirements from production to shipping to installation
• Your environment (indoor, outdoor, corrosive, temperature extremes)

Step 2: Custom Design and 3D Modeling

Our engineers create a fully customized 3D model of your AGrack solution, including all required custom features. We provide detailed engineering drawings and load calculations for your approval before any manufacturing begins, so you know exactly what you’re getting.

Step 3: Prototype and Testing

For large custom orders, we can produce a prototype unit for testing in your facility before full production begins. This allows you to validate the design works perfectly with your equipment and workflow, with no surprises after full delivery.

Popular Custom AGrack Modifications

Some of our most popular custom modifications include:

• Custom Sizes: Any length, width, or height to fit your specific product dimensions, from small shower door units to oversized 6m architectural glass panels.
• Custom Load Ratings: Upgraded 2000kg, 2500kg, or 3000kg load ratings for extra-heavy stone or thick glass applications.
• Four-Way Forklift Channels: For facilities that need to lift racks from any direction, not just front and back.
• Extended Fork Pockets: For use with reach trucks or narrow aisle forklifts with unique fork dimensions.
• Side Netting: 305mm or 610mm high side netting for securing small or irregular items like window units or mixed loads.
• Hot Dip Galvanized Finish: For outdoor or corrosive environment use.
• Custom Color Powder Coating: To match your facility’s color coding system for order tracking or department identification.
• Special Base Designs: Pallet-style bases for use with pallet jacks, or extended bases for extra stability with extra-tall loads.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is there a minimum order quantity for custom AGrack units?

Our minimum custom order is 20 units, which is low enough for most small to medium operations to take advantage of custom design.

Q: How long does the custom design process take?

Initial design takes 3-5 business days, and full production takes 2-3 weeks after design approval, depending on order size.

Q: Will custom racks cost significantly more than standard racks?

Custom racks typically cost only 10-20% more than standard units, and the improved efficiency and reduced damage usually pay back the extra cost in just a few months.

Q: Can you design racks to integrate with our automated production equipment?

Absolutely. We have experience designing racks that integrate with glass cutting tables, tempering line outfeeds, automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS), and other automated equipment.
