Things to Consider Before Creating a Warehouse Layout Design

Before creating a new layout design, it is important to have a good understanding of what needs to be achieved. Some of the things that should be kept in mind when planning out a warehouse space include:

1. Creating Flow

One of the most important things to consider when creating a warehouse layout design plan is how to best cut down on high-traffic areas. Consider locating materials that are used on a regular basis as close to the work centre as possible. This will help keep items close at hand, while also limiting the movement of materials, people, and traffic within the warehouse.

2. Making Things Accessible

When designing a new layout for your warehouse, make sure that all products on pallets are easily accessible by everyone without having to move another product out of the way. Doing so will help increase overall efficiency and cut down on potential work-related accidents. In order to make all products accessible, structure pallet racking in rows that are wide enough to accommodate hand trucks and dollies, as well as the stacking and stocking of items with minimal interference.

3. Maximizing Space

Take the time to carefully consider how to maximize the space available by considering the size and spacing of storage, stock, offices, workspaces, and warehouse equipment. Consider using vertical racking and freestanding equipment to allow for a more flexible layout option that can be changed in the future if need be.
