Tire Racks are a very specialized storage solution.  They keep tires safe and sound using specific design rules.  Following these rules let the tires retain their shape and integrity, making them safe to sell.  One of the most important aspects of this are the perforated decking.  Perforated deck meets fire codes by allowing water from overhead sprinklers to pass through to the stack racks below and protect the side walls. The ratio of holes to solid deck gives good support to the tires and will not leave marks on the tires in the portable rack.

Another style of stacking rack uses wire mesh decking. This decking is less expensive than perforated metal decking and has larger openings in the deck. This is a good option if your tires are in and out of your warehouse rack frequently and the wire deck doesn't have time to leave marks on your product. Naturally, the least expensive portable stack rack for tires has no decking at all. The inner and outer rack beams are located so they support the tires. This works best if you do not have people standing on the rack as they load or unload the tires, since the rack beams do not provide as secure a work surface as a deck does.

Our center post Tier-Rack® tire stacking frame is a popular alternative for those who appreciate the ease of loading and unloading tires when there are no obstructions on the corners of the stack racks. These tire racks are also the least expensive storage solution for tires  available. The frames easily attach to your existing warehouse pallets and will hold loads of 2,000 pounds per pallet when the racks are stacked five high.

Tier-Rack Corp of St. Louis, MO has been providing custom designed and manufactured tire racks since 1955.  Tier-Rack has created hundreds of customized racks for every shape and size of tire, using wire mesh and perforated decking to support the tires while keeping them from warping during long periods of non-use.  Let us show you how our years of manufacturing experience can provide you with quality earthmoving machine tire racks at a very affordable price. We buy steel tubing directly from the tube mills in truckload quantities. Then our talented and efficient teams in our low overhead production facilities transform the steel tubing into high quality portable racks that have been designed to meet your needs.

Shipping tires can be a scary proposition.  They have to arrive in great shape, without the warping and deformation that can cause them to become unsellable at their arrival spot.  If they're just stacked, they can develop flat spots.  If they're lain side to side, they can get lumps.  How can you ship tires, then, so that they make it to their destination intact?

Tire Rack

Finding space in your warehouse is like a constant game of chess.  Moving things around doesn't solve the problem of what to do with your product.  If you're storing tires, you can't just stack them in the corner, because they warp.  You have to have a rack that is flexible, built to support tires but also able to fit a spot in a warehouse, especially when they aren't being used.

The Tier-Rack folding tire rack folds down to become an easily-stored piece of equipment, one that gives an immediate relief to the space woes that a warehouse encounters during operations, and in changes of seasons and inventory.  The folding tire rack is stackable when engaged, and folds down to conserve space.

Since 1955, Tier-Rack Corp has used their Tier-Rack storage system to store tires, boxes, fabric, pipe, elecronics, bicycles, furniture, food, beverages, and almost any product that can be kept in a warehouse.  Any company that uses pallets can use this product, which stacks frames on top of your existing wood pallets to create vertical space.These will allow a company to stack 3 to 5 loads of crushable of fragile products, as well as awkward, non-stackable product.   When the frames aren't being utilized, they take up a small amount of space, folding down to conserve your precious warehouse space.

Tire RacksA tire rack is one of the most important tools in a shop.  It helps keep your tires safe and functional, and makes sure that they keep their shape, no matter the other conditions they are stored in. At least, that's what they're supposed to do.  Not all tire racks are built the same, unfortunately.  In fact, not all tire racks are even built to the specs they're SUPPOSED to be built to.

So tire companies around the country have an issue.  Tires aren't the easiest thing to store and carry, as they're very fungible and need to be stored with special care.  Not only do they need to be stored in cool, not cold, environments so that they don't warp in the heat, they need to be stored in certain configurations to avoid warping.  This is where a high quality rack, especially from Tier-Rack Corporation, will fit the bill.

Tier-Rack tire racks are constructed with only the highest quality metals, used for every portion of the construction of the rack, giving them a massive amount of stability and the safest rack available.  Their tire racks are also built with mesh decking, letting the tires rest evenly so that they don't develop flat spots or wear awkwardly.

Tier-Rack engineers can also design any rack for you, and with their manufacturing and engineering experience, will make exactly the rack that your company needs built, guaranteed.  Please call 800-325-7869 and visit www.tier-rack.com today to find out how Tier-Rack can make exactly the racks that your company needs to get that warehouse under control.
