Racking Accessories in Cheyenne, WY
Cheyenne's data center operations need label holder systems accurate enough to track smaller, higher-value components at the bin level, a different labeling density than the bulk-pallet accessories more common at the region's legacy distribution and energy operations.
Racking Accessories Solutions for Cheyenne Warehouses
Cheyenne is Wyoming's capital and largest city, positioned along I-25 and I-80 as a major crossroads for Mountain West logistics. The city's industrial base includes data centers, distribution operations, and government facilities, with significant growth driven by Wyoming's favorable tax environment.
The right accessories complete your pallet racking system and maximize safety, fire code compliance, and operational efficiency. An incomplete racking installation, missing wire decking, safety clips, or backstops, creates compliance issues, safety hazards, and operational inefficiencies that undermine the value of your rack investment. We carry a full line of racking accessories: wire decking panels, pallet supports, row spacers, column spacers, backstop bars, label holders, safety clips, and teardrop beam locks. All accessories are manufactured to ANSI standards and compatible with most teardrop upright systems.
Wire decking is the single most common racking accessory and is required by most fire codes in sprinklered warehouses. The open wire surface allows water from overhead fire suppression systems to penetrate all storage levels, dramatically improving fire suppression effectiveness. Wire decking also improves pallet stability for pallets with damaged or missing boards, increases visibility for inventory management, and creates a cleaner, more professional appearance. Available in standard and waterfall configurations to fit any beam depth and spacing.
Rocky Mountain Warehouse Solutions supplies accessories as part of complete racking installations or as standalone orders to complete or upgrade existing systems. Whether you need a full pallet of wire decking, a case of safety clips for a seismic compliance upgrade, or custom-cut row spacers for a non-standard configuration, we have the products and expertise to complete your project.
Codes, Compliance, and Enforcement in WY
Wyoming's seismic hazard varies more across the state than almost anywhere else we serve. The northwest corner around Jackson and the Yellowstone region carries substantial seismic design load, while Cheyenne, Casper, and Laramie sit in comparatively low-hazard territory where seismic is rarely the governing factor in a racking design. Because the difference is large and the state is wide, we design from the specific site rather than from a statewide assumption.
What consistently governs Wyoming projects instead is load type. The energy sector moves heavier, bulkier, and more irregular freight than a typical distribution operation, which pushes projects toward structural rather than roll-formed components, higher-capacity cantilever arms, and vehicle restraints and dock levelers rated for larger trucks than a standard freight dock sees. Wind and winter conditions matter for any outdoor or yard storage, and hot-dip galvanized systems are frequently the right specification rather than an upgrade. Evanston's position between Salt Lake City and the Wyoming interior means facilities there often handle both standard palletized freight and oversized energy equipment across the same dock, which is a sizing problem rather than a product-selection one.
Workplace safety in Wyoming is administered by the Wyoming Occupational Safety and Health Administration, housed within the Wyoming Department of Workforce Services, rather than by federal OSHA. We build and document every Wyoming installation to those state-enforced standards and to RMI ANSI MH16.1. Permitting is handled at the county and municipal level, and in the less densely regulated parts of the state the review can be lighter than buyers expect, which makes engineered load capacity labeling and retained anchor documentation more important rather than less.
Technical Specifications & Buying Guide
Wire decking is specified by the width (to match beam length), depth (to match beam spacing), and wire gauge (typically 4-gauge or 6-gauge). Waterfall wire decking has a front flange that drapes over the front beam, providing a smooth loading surface and additional front support. Standard (flush) wire decking sits flat between the beams. For applications requiring additional load support or fire code compliance in areas where heavy pallets are stored, step wire decking with a heavier gauge wire grid and reinforced waterfall channel provides maximum capacity.
Pallet supports are used when storing non-standard pallets, such as 42×42, 48×48, or custom dimensions, that do not bridge the standard beam spacing adequately. They are also used in pick modules and carton flow installations where carton weight is distributed across the support rather than spanning the full beam. Row spacers maintain consistent back-to-back row spacing in double-row rack configurations, preventing row migration and maintaining aisle widths. Column spacers tie adjacent uprights together at the base for stability in floor anchor-limited situations.
Backstop bars attach horizontally between uprights at the rear of a rack bay to prevent pallets from being pushed through the back of the rack by the forklift. They are required in many configurations where racking is against a wall, adjacent to a pedestrian aisle, or where pallets are loaded with motorized equipment that could overdrive the position. Label holder systems, available in magnetic, adhesive, and clip styles, are critical for inventory management systems that rely on accurate location labeling for WMS scanning and order picking accuracy.

Frequently Asked Questions About Racking Accessories in Cheyenne
Do I need wire decking on my pallet racking?
Wire decking is required by most fire codes in sprinklered warehouses because it allows water from overhead sprinklers to penetrate all storage levels. It also provides a safer surface for pallets with damaged boards and improves visibility for inventory management. If you have a sprinklered building, your fire marshal will almost certainly require wire decking.

What are safety clips for pallet racking?
Safety clips (also called beam locks or safety pins) lock the step beam to the upright to prevent accidental dislodgement during forklift loading. Many jurisdictions and insurance carriers require them, and the RMI recommends them for all installations. They are inexpensive, typically $1–$3 each, and take only seconds to install.

What size wire decking do I need?
Wire decking width matches your beam length (typically 46 inches for a 48-inch bay or 94 inches for a 96-inch bay), and the depth matches your beam-to-beam spacing (typically 36, 42, or 48 inches). Waterfall decking is most common for standard pallet storage; step decking provides additional capacity for heavy pallets.

What are row spacers and do I need them?
Row spacers are U-shaped steel connectors that bolt between the base of two back-to-back uprights in a double-row rack configuration. They maintain the correct spacing between rows, prevent row migration, and are typically required for double-row systems. Without them, rows can shift over time, affecting aisle widths and stability.

Can I add accessories to existing racking I purchased elsewhere?
In most cases, yes. Since most North American racking uses the teardrop hole pattern, wire decking, safety clips, backstops, and pallet supports from our inventory are compatible with uprights and beams from Interlake, Unarco, Lyon, Ridg-U-Rak, and most other major manufacturers.
