We just completed this installation of Rousseau’s drawers-in-shelving at one of our customer’s new facilities. By using a common posts, we were able to create a seamless design that is efficient, easy on the wallet, easy installation and looks great! Rousseau’s modular design allows you to go from basic shelving to drawers-in-shelving to cabinets with lockable doors. You want to put a workbench with wall cabinets and a light? Not a problem! Many other options are available, call us today to start your custom design. Our service area includes MD, VA, DE, PA and now the GA and SC coastal areas.

Rousseau Solution for Crescent Towing

MikeFoley — Mon, 29 Oct 2012 14:38:58 +0000

Crescent Towing is responsible for running the harbor assist tugs that tie up the ships at the Port of Savannah, one of the busiest in the country. It’s imperative that they keep their tugs in top running order 24/7. So you can imagine that having an accurate inventory that is well organized and efficient is very important to their success. In their warehouse they had installed a self supporting shelf mezzanine system. This is a very inexpensive way to maximize your storage capacity by taking advantage of your overhead space. However, when it comes to smaller parts and basic inventory control, “drawers in shelving” is the optimum solution. In an ongoing project, RMH was able to install Rousseau’s modular drawers into our competitor’s shelving. I could go on and give you the math of how this would improve their inventory system, but these pictures do a much better job:

With two banks of drawers consisting of 8 3″ drawers and 4 6″ drawers we were able to open up 5 shelving units!

Like what you see? Would you like a free consultation on how to improve your storage capacity or literature of the Rousseau products? Please give us a call @ 888-891-2312 and ask for Matt, John, or Mike!

Johns Hopkins Material Lift

MikeFoley — Fri, 24 Aug 2012 17:21:44 +0000

We just finished a job installing a material lift for Johns Hopkins. This lift was manufactured by Lightning Lift Products out of Delanco, NJ. A great benefit of a hydraulic material lift is that there are no certifications or regular inspections required as compared to traditional elevators. If you continuously have to haul material up flights of stairs a material lift will increase your productivity and reduce personnel risk. If you have questions or are in need of hydraulic lift equipment give us a call – 888-891-2312.

Armstrong State Install

MikeFoley — Fri, 24 Aug 2012 01:05:23 +0000

We just finished an installation for the Mechanical Engineering Lab at Armstrong State University in Savannah, GA. RMH was excited to contribute to our local college’s expansion and wish Dr. Coates and his team good luck. Go Pirates! Here is what the lab looked like when we started:

Nice folding tables, huh.

They ordered six 72L x 44D student tables with adjustable legs. They chose painted (black) steel tops which we covered with rubber to act as a sacrificial cover. Four students are at each table so to save space we put two of the computer articulating arms to one post and mounted them centered on the ends. The also got a teacher’s table and several odd size tables.

Rousseau Workstations with stools from BenchPro

The computer supports are very well designed with stainless steel posts. These have a very clean look and is compatible with a stainless steel or painted steel cover that could house electrical outlets.

Armstrong also chose to get their electronic workstations, complete with a grounding kit, for their lab that will be ready for next year.

Electronic Workstation is dissipative tops and shelf.

Let us know what you think and if you like what you see or have questions then please to give us a call.

Cogan Mezzanines

MikeFoley — Mon, 16 Jul 2012 19:21:49 +0000

Hey Maryland and Georgia based customers, are you running out of floor space? Are you thinking about moving to a larger facility or warehouse? Let me suggest that you consider adding a mezzanine – transforming your unused vertical space into profitable square footage. Using Cogan’s world class mezzanine system, we can custom design a mezzanine to your required deck height and load requirements. These mezzanines can come with railings meeting OSHA or IBC Code, stairs with or without a landing, safety gates, ladders, and a choice of several different deck options. One of these options is using ResinDek panels, giving you a very clean and professional look. We can handle installation or, seeing how these mezzanines are modular and bolt together by following simple instructions, you can save money by installing it yourself.

So lets re-cap: double you manufacturing or warehouse floor space without incurring moving, renovation, or new construction cost by calling Rock Material Handling for a quote on your new Cogan Mezzanine.

Do you have metal shelving? Does the space in the back of the shelves feel like they are wasted space? Do you ever “loose” parts or supplies that are hidden by the stuff stored on the front of the shelf? RMH has a solution that will enable you to access the entire depth of your shelving unit plus will help with inventory control and efficiency. Using Rousseau’s Drawer-in-shelving system, we can install their world class, 400 lb capacity R Modular Drawers in over 35 different brands of shelving.
