Eagleville, PA2019
2,400 sq ft for storage, 40% utilization
850 sq ft recovered, 85% utilization
Parts storage consuming 2,400 sq ft of valuable production floor space. Workers walking 15+ minutes per shift to retrieve components. Picking errors causing costly rework and production delays.
Multiple Hänel Vertical Lift Modules positioned at production line points-of-use. Inventory management integration with existing ERP system. Light-directed picking eliminates errors. Parts delivered to operator in seconds—not minutes.
We recovered 850 square feet of production floor space and cut parts retrieval time by 80%. The VLMs paid for themselves in 14 months. Reynolds understood manufacturing—they weren't learning on our dime.

Hänel VLMs include inventory management software that integrates with major ERP systems including SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, and others. The integration handles: pick list import, inventory updates, transaction logging, and reorder alerts. We configure the integration during installation.
Yes. Our steel mezzanines are engineered for specific load requirements—from standard 125 PSF for storage up to 500+ PSF for heavy equipment. We analyze your equipment weight and layout, then design the structure accordingly with stamped engineering drawings.
Most manufacturing projects achieve payback in 18-24 months. ROI comes from: labor savings (fewer trips to stockroom), space savings (vertical storage reduces footprint by 50%+), accuracy improvements (fewer wrong parts = less rework), and inventory reduction (better visibility = lower safety stock). We provide ROI projections with every proposal.
Mezzanines typically install in 2-4 weeks. VLMs install in 1-2 weeks depending on quantity and integration complexity. We schedule installations to minimize production disruption—often working nights and weekends if needed.
In most cases, no. Our mezzanines are classified as equipment, not permanent construction. We provide stamped engineering drawings for your records and any inspections. However, requirements vary by municipality—we research your specific location as part of the proposal process.
