Consultation & Site Evaluation
Nene Warehouse Solutions began the project by conducting a comprehensive site evaluation and consultation with Briggs Equipment Limited’s team. This allowed Nene Warehouse Solutions to gain a deep understanding of its requirements and objectives.
Adjustable Racking Installation
To optimise storage capabilities, Nene Warehouse Solutions recommended the installation of adjustable racking. A total of 36 shelves were installed, accommodating different-sized pallets. The racking system boasted a width of 3300mm, a depth of 1100mm, and an impressive length of 19,800mm for the longest run. With three runs of racking (one single and one double), the system provided ample storage space for Briggs Equipment Limited’s inventory.

Racking Safety & Protection
To enhance safety and protect the racking system from potential collisions, Nene Warehouse Solutions installed rack deflectors. These deflectors acted as a protective barrier, minimising the risk of damage caused by forklifts or other equipment. The deflectors were strategically placed at vulnerable points, ensuring the longevity and structural integrity of the racking system.
