Based in Stevens Point, Wisconsin, Steel King is one of the premier pallet racking manufacturers of high quality material handling products. Steel King pallet racking systems address the entire spectrum of non-powered warehouse and material handling systems. In fact, Steel King Industries is the only pallet rack manufacturer that provides cantilever rack, portable racks, pick module systems and mezzanines. Besides their corporate headquarters in Stevens Point, Wisconsin, Steel King has pallet rack manufacturing locations in New London, Wisconsin and Rome, Georgia. There are six regional sales offices in Dallas, Atlanta, Stevens Point, Grand Rapids, Chicago and Madison. They are members in good standing of warehouse material handling associations including, but not limited to, Material Handling Industry of America (MHIA) and the Rack Manufacturers Institute (RMI).
Steel King’s website is packed with excellent information about pallet racking, storage layout design considerations, free literature, downloads and displays an impressive product video library. These WinMedia videos are one to four minutes in duration and load in under a minute. Topics include an “About Steel King Industries”, “Flow Storage Systems”, “Pushback Storage Systems” and other storage-related videos. Their pallet rack design guide is a helpful resource when potential customers are at the beginning of their material handling manufacturer selection phase. Navigation using tabs and text links are well designed for the customer in mind. I would be hard pressed to find a more complete website in the pallet racking storage systems manufacturers’ marketplace.
Steel King’s product distribution channel web page has a distributor locator map which helps you determine support and sales locations. This key component is the vendor selection process is sometimes an afterthought but it shouldn’t be. Don’t award the contract with heavy weighting in selection criteria being price. I’m not saying Steel King isn’t competitive from a price perspective, they are. Just keep in mind that they may not be the low bidder, especially if used pallet racking is being considered. (Check out this page if used pallet racking may be an option for your requirements.) No matter how simplistic a pallet rack layout may seem, take advantage of the professional material handling design services that are available from Steel King Industries and its network of distributors. Local sales, service and design teams will have knowledge of building codes, the permit process and licensing issues. Ensure the installation is completed by factory trained and certified personnel. Consider warranty, site inspections and worker safety guideline.
