Weather-Resistant Racking Installed in Just One Day

The client, a major manufacturer of concrete products, required a galvanised racking solution that was both robust and weatherproof to support external storage at their York facility. In addition, the client needed safe storage for heavy precast products. Because of these needs, the project demanded a quick turnaround with an installation built to withstand outdoor conditions.

• Client: A Leading Concrete Product Manufacturer
• Industry: Construction & Manufacturing
• Location: York, UK
• Date of Completion: September 2025
• Project Duration: 1 Day

• The racking needed to be fully galvanised to resist corrosion in an external environment.
• The installation had to be completed and operational within a single day to avoid disruption to site operations.
• The project required protective features to prevent impact damage from handling equipment.

Meeting all of these requirements within a strict one-day timeframe was the key challenge of the project. As a result, the racking had to be fully operational by the end of the day to avoid disruption to production. Therefore, careful coordination and precise installation were essential to deliver a compliant, weather-resistant system that could immediately support the client’s operations. Moreover, the solution had to remain durable in an outdoor environment exposed to constant weather changes. Consequently, every stage of planning and installation had to be executed with accuracy and efficiency.

To meet the client’s needs, Premier Storage designed and installed a durable galvanised racking system. In addition, the installation plan focused on efficiency and safety to ensure everything was completed within a single day. Consequently, the team developed a structured approach that balanced speed with precision. Moreover, the chosen materials and design ensured that the installation would withstand heavy use and environmental exposure.

The project included:

1. Installation of 12 Bays of Racking – Configured with both 2 and 3 beam levels to accommodate varied product sizes.
2. Galvanised Finish for External Use – Providing long-term durability and resistance to the elements.
3. Fitting of Frame Protectors – Adding an extra layer of safety to protect racking uprights from potential forklift and handling equipment impact.
4. Efficient One-Day Installation – Premier Storage completed the project within the client’s required timeframe. As a result, operational downtime was kept to a minimum.
