Frequently Asked Questions

What types of material handling equipment do you supply in Indianapolis?

We supply wire mesh decking, column protectors, end-of-aisle guards, pallet supports, row spacers, rack dividers, safety netting, conveyor systems, lift tables, pallet jacks, drum handlers, dock plates, dock levelers, and a full range of warehouse mobility and safety accessories for Indianapolis metro businesses.

Do you install the material handling equipment you sell?

Yes. For items requiring installation — conveyor systems, lift tables, mezzanines, and modular offices — our team handles the complete installation. For standard rack accessories like wire decking and column guards, we can install as part of a larger project or provide guidance for your team to install independently.

Can you source equipment from multiple manufacturers?

Yes. We work with a network of suppliers and are not tied to a single manufacturer's product line. This allows us to match the right product to your specific application and budget, rather than fitting your needs to what one vendor happens to carry.

Do you supply wire decking for existing rack systems?

Yes. Wire mesh decking is one of the most commonly requested accessories, and we stock and supply it in standard sizes for all major racking systems. We can also source custom sizes for non-standard beam configurations common in older Indianapolis-area warehouse installations.

Signs Your Indianapolis Warehouse Needs Better MHE & Rack Accessories

Forklift operators at the FedEx hub or Plainfield fulfillment centers are stabbing beams and uprights — you need column protectors, end-of-aisle guards, and heavier impact hardware before OSHA or an RMI inspector flags it
Pallets are overhanging beams or sagging between them in automotive JIT racks serving Stellantis Kokomo, Subaru Lafayette, or Cummins Columbus line-side — you need wire decking, pallet supports, or row spacers sized to the actual pallet
Eli Lilly, Roche Diagnostics, or Covance pharma storage in the Indianapolis / Fishers corridor is pushing back on open wire decking for contamination control — you need solid steel deck, closed-tube decking, or GMP-friendly accessories
Ag-seed operations around Beck's Hybrid, Corteva, or Dow AgroSciences have dust accumulating on wire decks and inside beams — you need dust-shedding solid decks and easier-to-clean accessory profiles
Pick faces in Amazon, Walmart, or Target DCs along I-65 / I-70 are slowing down — you need pallet flow, carton flow, push-back, or pick modules instead of raw selective
Cold storage and food-grade operations in Indianapolis and Greenwood need stainless or galvanized decking and corrosion-resistant accessories, not painted mild steel

Indianapolis MHE & Accessory Options Compared

Before you order another pallet of wire decks, match the accessory to how your Indy-metro operation actually moves product.

Accessory / MHE Type	Best For	Key Notes
Wire mesh decking	General selective rack at FedEx hub, Amazon, and Plainfield 3PLs	Cheapest per bay, passes sprinkler codes in most Marion County setups, but lets dust fall through — not ideal for pharma or ag-seed
Solid steel / closed-tube decking	Eli Lilly pharma, Covance, Roche Diagnostics — any GMP or controlled-environment operation in Indianapolis, Fishers, or Lebanon	Blocks contamination and dust, wipes down easily for audits; heavier so uprights sometimes need re-rating
Pallet supports / bar supports	Automotive JIT at Subaru SIA Lafayette, Stellantis Kokomo, Cummins Columbus where pallets don't match beam spacing	Fraction of the cost of full decking, keeps returnable totes and odd-sized OEM pallets from falling through
Column protectors & end-of-aisle guards	High-traffic forklift lanes at IND cargo, FedEx Indianapolis hub, and LEAP district Lebanon facilities	OSHA / ANSI MH16.1 friendly; pay for themselves the first time a forklift clips an upright
Pallet flow / carton flow lanes	High-velocity pick operations — Amazon, Walmart, Target DCs and grocery DCs along I-65	FIFO rotation, denser than selective; requires engineered rails and regular roller maintenance
Push-back rack / drive-in	LIFO staging at Indianapolis cold-storage, beverage DCs, and ag-seed buffer storage	High density, fewer aisles — tradeoff is slower single-SKU access and stricter forklift discipline
