Easy Rack has commercial aluminum walk ramps in several sizes with accessories to meet your material handling needs.

Aluminum walk ramps provide an excellent means of safely moving heavy loads to and from your truck at locations using hand trucks or dollies. Our heavy duty commercial grade walk ramps feature an overlapping style that rests on the truck bed to hold the ramp securely in position. Walk ramps are very handy for landscapers, concrete contractors, carpenters and other craftsmen who frequently move heavy machines and equipment between job sites using trailers. Why use your back or risk getting hurt when you can use a ramp? Think about it!

Easy Rack's aluminum walk ramps come in several sizes and options to meet your material handling needs. The adjustable height wheel option, for example, is ideal for use with longer walk ramps. The height can be adjusted with a simple manual hand crank mechanism. The wheels are 10" x 31⁄2" pneumatic and are strategically located at balance points on ramp allowing for one-person positioning. The minimum ramp lowered height with this walk ramp option is 12".

EasyRack has Cart Options that provides for easy one-person ramp positioning and transportation. Just pull the handle up to rotate and lock wheels and lower the handle to allow for easy ramp movement. Push handle down to unlock and lift wheels so ramp can be used to service lower trailers. Pneumatic wheels are 10" x 31⁄2". Minimum ramp service height is 14" with this option. This accessory option requires easy bolt-on installation.

The open deck design of our walk ramps allows snow, ice and water to fall through ramp providing a positive grip for delivery men, shippers and receivers. The ramps are 100% welded aluminum construction, light-weight and will not rust. Ramps feature a 2" high safety curb on each side. Each unit includes two safety chains to connect ramp to trailer for safety.

Easy Rack also carries both essential and specialized material handling equipment designed to move product safely and quickly across floor space. We carry hand trucks, standard dollies, and pallet jacks for normal-size pallets and crates. We also supply specialty material handling carts and utility carts that prove very effective in moving specialized and sensitive equipment. For larger payloads too difficult to move safely with muscle alone, we also carry the latest models in electric pallet jacks and gasoline powered pallet trucks to provide that extra bit of power needed to avoid injury and quickly move materials without delay or damage. Need commercial lighting fixtures to go with those material handling supplies?

However, there is something that you can do around your home or business that will make a tremendous impact in deterring criminals and give you, your associates and your customers peace of mind. Lighting! Study after study show security lighting is by far the most important element in any crime prevention program.

Outdoor Security Lighting Tips

Experts suggest that security lights should be placed high enough above the ground so intruders cannot disable them or take them out of service.

You can prevent unsightly glare by using a variety of glare shields attached to the fixture housing which conceals the bulb.

Aim your lighting fixtures in a downward position whenever possible to help keep our skies dark.

A good rule of thumb for brightness levels is 0.05 watts per square foot.

It is always better to use multiple light fixtures of moderate power instead of a few powerful outdoor floodlights to reduce glare and provide more even illumination.

Make sure the electric meter box is locked or difficult to get to so that the bad guys can't turn off the all your lighting.

Security lighting should not be installed where they can create blinding glare or blind spots to oncoming drivers or pedestrians.

Major Benefits Of Security Lighting:

Security lighting deters burglars, intruders and vandalism reducing insurance costs and lowering anxiety associated with fear.

Increase safety for employees leaving work before or after dark.

HID lights are energy efficient which reduce overhead costs in both reduced maintenance and energy consumption.

Security lighting can be integrated with existing alarm systems through the use of motion detectors and motion lighting fixtures.

Choosing the right commercial ladder for your project is no laughing matter. It may save your life!

Did you not sign up for the newsletter? It plainly says, working on a ladder of any type can be hazardous to your health! Ladders and step ladders on average account for 14 deaths and over 1000 serious injuries to workers each year. Many of these injuries are caused by improper or faulty use of ladders and associated material handling equipment. The best ladder safety, plan and simple, is common sense.

First, know when to use a ladder, then decide how to go about selecting the right sort of ladder for the particular job. Experts are convinced that mishandling of ladders at work can be partly explained by the way they are used in the home. As with all work equipment, users need sufficient information and training to be able to use ladders and stepladders safely. It it looks dangerous, it probably is.

When considering whether it could be appropriate to use a ladder or step-ladder, you need to consider the following factors:

Only use a ladder or stepladder in any one position for a maximum of 30 minutes to prevent fatigue or dizziness.
Never use commercial wheel risers to elevate your vehicle or work on a ladder that is not on solid ground. This mean do not put ladders on vehicles to extend your reach. That is the easiest way to get yourself hurt.

Know the weight limitations of your ladder and under no circumstances should you overload a step ladder or ladder from your body weight plus anything they are taking up the ladder.

Never lean over and overreach from the ladder. It is best to keep your belt buckle inside the stiles and both feet on the same rung throughout work being done. Practice safety!

When working on commercial ladders or household stepladders, you should avoid work that imposes a side loading, such as side-on drilling through solid materials (e.g. bricks or concrete), by having the steps facing the work activity. Where side-on loadings cannot be avoided you should prevent the steps from tipping over, for example by tying the steps to a suitable point.

Only use a commercial grade ladder or telescoping extension ladder on firm ground or spread the load on level ground by using a plywood sheet.

Never work on a ladder that is close to overhead power lines, unless the power company or electrician has made them dead or protected with temporary insulation.

When working by a roadway or near vehicular traffic, always use safety cones or barricades to prevent injury. Practice safety!

Never stand on the top rung of a step ladder that does not have handrails or some other means of preventing falls.

It is advisable to not climb or use ladders in strong or gusting winds.

Cantilever racks offer industry professionals a powerful material-handling tool that requires no external bracing and is easy to install.

Cantilever racks offer construction and industry a powerful material-handling tools that requires no external bracing. A cantilever rack features either single upright or double upright design that allows for storage of oddly shaped materials or supplies with exceptionally long measurements. Easy Rack supplies medium duty and heavy-duty cantilever racks to construction and storage facilities nationwide. We carry used models for contractors on a budget and new cantilever racks for purchasing managers who insist on having the very best up front.

Cantilever racks offer more use of the vertical cube and help reduce the costs of expansion and moving. Their specific value lies in their ability to store items that cannot be stacked or easily organized in crates or shelving. Many furniture warehouses them to accommodate bulky and cumbersome pieces. Industrial facilities use them to store everything from pipe to tubing. Appliance manufacturers use them as well to store refrigerator and freezer units. Cantilever racks can sit back against the wall with arms extended, giving easy access to manual loading or forklift maneuvering and do not a separate aisle or special access point to reach. Easy Rack's sells a wide range of builds and dimensions engineered for different storage needs and load capacities. We carry medium-duty and heavy-duty models in over 30 specific dimensions.

Medium and heavy-duty cantilever racks feature single-sided uprights. All racks offer a great deal of durability because of a powder coat finish that makes them very tough under hard working conditions. Medium-duty units can be hand or forklift loaded, and heavy-duty cantilevers are ideal for heavy materials that require the use of forklifts. Our unique manufacturing process combines welded steel components with unique bolt construction, allowing these units to bear loads of up to 9000 pounds and customize to varying lengths by moving the arms to different levels and securing them in place with a key lock. All arms feature lips that prevent stored materials from falling on the floor or worker's feet.

Single-sided uprights customize easily to a number of individual shelving applications. Double-sided uprights allow for faster manual loading and forklift access. Many facilities use them for temporary storage, placing longer items such as pipe, tubing, bar stock and lumber securely on the uprights and out of the way for workers moving back and forth within the facility. One cantilever rack can store many different types of items because of the adjustable nature of the arms. Easy Rack's cantilevers measure up to 10 feet in height and can bear load capacities of up to 9000 pounds. We sell uprights and arms separately, not in pairs, so customers can choose exactly how many arms they need per unit. We also custom build systems for clients who call in with specific requirements.

Looking for some industrial lighting fixtures or commercial warehouse lighting fixtures to go with those cantilever racks? We have a great selection of new and used pallet racks, industrial ladders, industrial dollies, and shelving in just about any shape, size or quantity!

Industrial ladders exist to provide specialized and highly safe vertical mobility for manufacturing or shipping facilities.

Steel rolling ladders provide an easy and safe solution for order retrieval and reaching inventory on high shelves. Easy Rack's rolling ladders includes a special lockable safety gate that prevents kids and unauthorized staff off the ladder.

Our rolling warehouse ladders provides safety features like pushing the gate forward will raise the wheels off the floor and allow for safe access to the ladder, Pushing ladder gate backwards will lower the wheels to the floor that will restrict access to the rolling ladder and allow ladder to be moved.

Easy Rack's steel rolling ladders have a standard climb angle of 58 degrees (contact us for pricing on optional 50 degree less steep angles). The ladder handrail height is 30" from the steps and 34" around the top platform that includes a 4" toe-board. Ladder steps are 24" wide by 7" deep.

Steel rolling ladders provide tangible benefits such as:

  • Unique two-piece design allows warehouse personnel to handle steel rolling ladders for shipping and storage.

  • Steel rolling ladders are manufactured in compliance with OSHA and ANSI A14.7 standards. Side frame is constructed from heavy-duty rectangular tubing that offers maximum strength.

  • Includes lockout feature to padlock steel rolling ladders when not in use. (Padlock not included).

  • Each rolling warehouse ladder is rated at 350 lbs. capacity and has locking grip pads that add stability and prevent the ladder from rolling while in use.

  • Choose either grip strut style or perforated style ladder steps. Rolling ladders have welded steel construction with powder coat finish.

  • We also offer Sideways Wheel Options for even more ladder maneuverability. This option will allow the rolling ladder to turn within its own length and be pushed sideways against shelving units

Many forms of industrial ladders exist to provide specialized and highly safe vertical mobility for virtually any manufacturing or shipping facility that has industrial shelving. Used correctly, industrial ladders convert the vertical cube into workspace with minimal risk of injury. Because industrial ladders not only improve efficiency, but also contribute to OSHA compliance and reduced risk of liability, they constitute a significant portion of any facilities inventory and rank among the most important tools essential to maintaining optimal, efficient operations. In addition to rolling steel ladders, Easyrack carries a number of smaller industrial ladders equally valuable to commercial clients and to homeowners. Our stepladders feature the lightest and strongest grade aluminum, rated from 200-250 lbs, and our folding ladders feature steel construction with powder coat finish and 250 lbs weight capacity. Rubber feet at the base of the ladder provide extra grip and prevent slippage. Stepladders are lightweight and easy to carry and prove ideal for commercial light maintenance work, painting, and wiring work on low ceilings. Stepladders serve as ideal industrial ladders and are also the favored choice for homeowners looking for professional grade materials.

Industrial ladders are key components to any company's inventory. Choosing the right ladder for the right project not only saves on time, but also may save lives. Call Easyrack today at 713-553-1122 and we will answer your questions and help you find the right industrial ladders for your needs.

Tax codes classify multi-tier mezzanine shelving systems as equipment, not real estate.

Are you running out of room? Are you considering moving your business?

Many companies are facing the same shortages of storage space and are considering the possibility of either relocating or building a new facility. Have you considered the benefits that mezzanine shelving systems offer as a cost-effective and highly efficient alternative to relocating?


Mezzanine system shelving allow for conversion of unused vertical air space into safe, efficient storage areas for a fraction of the cost of the move. Mezzanine shelves also offer a number of direct and indirect economic perks to facilities owners. Mezzanine shelving systems provide an incredible level of safety fully compliant with regulatory codes and offer a high level of adaptability to any number of industrial and warehousing environments.

Just as time is money, space is overhead. Floor space limitations not only limit the amount of equipment and materials owners can house within the facility, but they can also create safety issues such as trip and fall hazards when things become too closely packed together. Owners often immediately consider a move when space becomes limited not only to accommodate inventory and operations, but also to ensure a safe working environment. The cost of moving, however, is enormous for industrial facilities. On the other hand, investing in mezzanine system shelving requires only a fraction of the cost of moving and increases available storage space 100-150 percent on the average. Adding mezzanine shelving to existing floor space eliminates months, and in some cases, years, of waiting for a new building to be finished. By expanding upward, the mezzanine shelving converts the unused vertical airspace above the facility floor into solid, safe, quickly accessible storage areas. Expanded and new facilities will naturally consume more energy to light, heat, and cool. Mezzanine shelving prevents this increased overhead by utilizing existing heat, light, and cooling systems. Operations managers responsible for eliminated cost of operations should especially consider the energy-savings benefits when calculating quarterly and annual operations budgets.

Tax codes classify multi-tier mezzanine shelving systems as equipment, not real estate. As expanding a facility or building a larger plant will obviously place you in a higher property tax bracket, converting vertical space with a mezzanine system minimizes property tax increase and offers depreciation tax breaks associated with equipment. This again further reduces overhead and allows operations to increase profits through lowered expenditures. The versatility offered by these systems offers a variety of options in almost any facility. Mezzanine shelving assemble as easily as standard shelving and provide storage, staging, workspace, and even office space. All steel components of the system, including heavy-duty columns designed for industrial loading capacity, come pre-fabricated from the manufacturer and require no drilling or welding. Owners can choose from a number of stairs, steel or concrete decks, and handrails to ensure full code compliance for particular geographic areas and specific industries. The mezzanine railing system combines the guidance of a handrail with the protective barrier of a wire partition. It fully complies with all OSHA and BOCA safety regulations and offers the very best protection against slip and fall hazards. Prevention of accidents further reduces cost of liability or workman's compensation and insurance premium hikes resulting from mishaps.

Because of the way mezzanine systems assemble, they offer a flexibility that allows for change in size and location as your industry evolves and your facility adapts in response. They can be moved or enlarged at will, allowing for multiple upgrades and minimizing any need for replacement. As customized and highly reliable pieces of equipment, we can design them specifically for you current needs and any future changes you foresee. Call us today and let us help you design the very best safe, reliable, and cost-effective shelving system for you.

Contact us today at 713-553-1122 and let us help you find exactly what you need to make your organization grow. We offer many commercial and industrial supplies including new and used pallet racks, material handling equipment and commercial warehouse and industrial lighting.

Commercial lighting systems offer a number of clear and tangible enhancements to any commercial or industrial property.

Industrial companies can eliminate the costs of contracted design and installation services by building their own commercial lighting systems. This is not as difficult as it may appear. Since commercial lighting systems serve primarily a practical purpose, operations managers can itemize the major activities that occur in and around their facilities and literally match lighting to worker activity through Easy Rack’s simple, efficient, online inventory and order processing.

The first priority of most industrial clients is heightened security. Commercial lighting systems offer a number of clear and tangible enhancements to any company’s protection of its buildings and employees. The most obvious benefit a better commercial lighting system brings is improved visibility through elimination of all shadows in parking lots and between buildings. Crime simply cannot occur as easily if there are no dark places for intruders to hide. With Easy Rack commercial lighting systems, a company can customize flood lighting by installing half of their floodlights on timers that turn lights on at sundown and off at sunrise. They can save costs by installing the remainder of their floodlights with motion sensors, providing additional lighting only when the system detects and intruder and gives a sudden, bright surprise to unauthorized personnel. Security cameras and guards can see more clearly around the edges of buildings fitted with wall packs and other external lights.

Easy Rack has a wide variety of fixtures custom-engineered to fit on the sides and roofs of many different building types. Adding wall packs to one’s commercial lighting system is a very cost effective way to create a field of light around the entire building and make any attempt at intrusion immediately visible to cameras and guards. Adding glare free parking lot lights to increase visibility between vehicles, and sign lighting at the front entrance adds further security by eliminating any dark areas unauthorized personnel can use to gain access to the property.

Easy Rack’s online inventory contains all necessary fixtures and bulbs to self-design an energy saving, OSHA compliant commercial lighting system from the ground up. Contact us online or by phone at 713-522-1133 with any specific questions or custom design requirements.
