We also manufacture Heavy Duty Racking complete with roofs and cladding, providing a very cost-effective way of storing goods whilst protecting them from the elements. The addition of doors offers a more secure external storage facility.

Alternatively, Wickens can design and construct a complete Rack Clad Building, a budget-friendly stand-alone storage solution, where heavy duty racking is utilised as the main structural frame of the building with added roof, walls and doors.

A variety of safety products, such as steel safety barriers, column protectors and bollards, are available to protect your racking and stock from damage caused by materials handling machinery.

We offer a full project management service, including installation.
