Comprehensive Pallet Racking and Storage Systems

Premier Storage & Office Solutions was tasked with delivering pallet racking and storage systems for St Leger Homes, the Arm’s Length Management Organisation (ALMO) managing 21,000 council homes for Doncaster Metropolitan Borough Council (DMBC).

The project involved consolidating several depots into a single 1,820 square metre unit at Shaw Lane Industrial Estate, Doncaster. The aim was to create an efficient and cost-effective administration and storage facility. It needed to hold everything from kitchens to beds. Importantly, items also had to remain quickly and easily accessible. Therefore, careful planning was essential from the outset.

As a result, the client required a dependable warehouse racking solution to keep stock well organised.

Client: St Leger Homes
Industry: Housing Management
Location: Shaw Lane Industrial Estate, Doncaster, UK
Project Duration: 7 weeks
Budget: £100,000+

Premier Storage & Office Solutions installed a range of storage systems. These included pallet racking, cantilever, long-span shelving, standard shelving, and a mezzanine floor within the 1,820 square metre unit.

The installation process was completed in just seven weeks, from order placement to project completion. As a result, the transition for St Leger Homes was smooth and disruption-free. Additionally, the work created a reliable industrial racking and shelving fit out that maximised space and improved operational flow.

• Versatile Storage: The use of different solutions, such as warehouse racking, pallet storage racks, and cantilever pallet racking, meant bulky kitchen units and smaller items could be stored with ease. For example, cantilever racking made it possible to hold long or awkward components securely.
• Dexion System: St Leger Homes selected the Dexion racking system for its reliability, practicality, and low maintenance. Moreover, this ensured compatibility with existing industrial racking solutions already in use across their other depots.

By consolidating multiple depots into one streamlined facility, St Leger Homes improved efficiency and reduced operating costs. In addition, the project created a scalable warehouse racking model that will support future housing stock requirements. Consequently, it provides a strong foundation for long-term operations.

The installation was more than just a storage upgrade. In fact, it was a strategic warehouse racking solution designed specifically for the housing management sector.

The successful delivery of tailored warehouse pallet racks and storage systems has already enhanced operational efficiency. With this high-quality fit out, Premier Storage & Office Solutions has provided St Leger Homes with a dependable, long-term solution. Furthermore, it supports both current operations and future growth. Finally, it demonstrates the value of well-planned racking in social housing.
