POLE BARN PALLET RACK SYSTEM..YOU Decide If It's Worth It!

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

See how we add lights in our pole barn here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYO9eYSla5mMa6s

Hank, just a suggestion to keep from pushing to far and into the back wall is to put a 2x8 in front of the posts that will not allow someone to push to far when putting a pallet on your pallet rack. Just hate to see the back wall get pushed out and damaged.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Thanks Allan👍

[@khtractors]

Sometimes you can raise your lift higher then what you need and tilt the forks down to see the tips, then as you start into the pallet you can bring your lift arms down and curl up at the same time leveling out the forks. Then drive on in. It works really well to get lined up with pallets.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Right on👍

[@richardvaughn8525]

Can’t wait to do this myself! Great storage and looks good.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Works great too. Thanks Richard.

[@brandonskiver1]

Nice idea. My only add would be to put some additional sheet metal or plywood on the inside of the barn to protect from that whoops moment of pushing the pallet in too far.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Perfect. Great idea. Thanks Brandon. Have a good day 👍

[@Rdrake1413]

Have installed pallet racks inside warehouses. Secured them to the floor with concrete anchors.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Right on 👍

[@HeavensGatesCherryFarm]

Hank, put some lag bolts with a big washer and bolt the rack to that 2x4 threw your metal frame, then no need for them straps, great video!!!🍒👍

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Yeah the next time I'm in Rural King I'll try to remember to pick some up 👍 good idea.

[@terrymangum3914]

Great idea. Love you portable step ladder. You may want to add a couple of vertical 2x4s on the back barn side of the rack to protect the building if you happen to push the pallet in too far. The vertical 2x4s could be attached to your existing horizontal 2x4s. I have trouble seeing the ends of my pallet forks too. Enjoyed.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Good idea Terry. Thanks. Have a good week👍

[@Harry-O]

Good job. Organization, that’s the key!

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Yes sir. I like it so far

[@shaneharrison4775]

Their are as long as you dont over load them and are super steady and careful their awesome to use

[@TheNeuAdventure]

We are always need new storage areas around our “farm”! Y’all are smart to secure it to the barn, you have some heavy stuff on those shelves!

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

For real. Hopefully it does well for us. Thanks for watching 👍

[@ASimpleLifewithChrisTara]

Thanks for sharing...

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

You bet. Thanks for watching 👍

[@HeritageFarmsTexas]

Good job, those will come in handy.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Yes sir.

[@joey011582]

Very worth it, im in the process of doing the same thing

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Right on!

[@LifeOnTheRidge]

Great idea!! Getting the most out of your space! I wish my tractor had the quick attach front end.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Right on Bobby. Thanks for watching 👍

[@AJmx2702001]

Lots of good uses for pallet racks like you have but we had to scale up and fab one out of angle iron for holding up bulk oil tanks here all good use to space which is hard to come by lol. I gave up on the whole using pallet forks on tractors a long time ago its basically impossible and tractors were not designed with that in mind

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Yeah I hear ya. I think these will work out just fine 👍 thanks for the comment AJ

[@MySliceOfHeavenoutdoors]

Great storage system, gets the implements up out of the way

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Yes sir. Thanks for the comment Joey

[@jkholley1118]

I like the rack! It is hard to see the forks on our tractors, but I do like yours over the mahindra ones I bought. Can't see much through the little slots in the top of mine. Going to have to upgrade.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

I do like the forks I have. The pallet rack is pretty neat to have.

[@FromSteelToWood]

Great! I got some pallet racks like yours last fall. This is the project on the list for next spring/summer. That will allow me to put my implements under a roof! Not easy moving pallets with a geared tractor, isn't it? Thanks!

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Lol. You got that right. Thanks for the.comment Joe 👍

[@BigOrangeTractors]

Looking good, pal. I suppose I'll have to find me a setup like that!

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Lol. I'll help you set it up. I have experience with them now😂

[@RandWFarmstead-TonyWalsh]

Good thinking

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Thanks brother 👍

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

Awesome idea! Would it be faster/easier just to put the implement directly on the rack versus on a pallet on the rack?

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

I think I will do that as I attach the implement to the tractor. and not have to use the forks to take them on and off with....if that makes sense.

[@noonerstrickland1743]

Good job! 👍🏼

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Thank you kind sir

[@bigjack6015]

Mrs Gina needs a hardhat! 👍🏻 Hank’s head is hard enough!! 😂😂😂🤪

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Concur!

[@tractorrookie]

Howboutcha! Way to make it look easy! So jealous!

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

It is very handy for sure. Thanks for the comment 👍 have a great day!

[@CamppattonFamilyCompound]

I have a bunch of those racks in my cargo containers.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Nice👍

[@cabodj]

Did you end up putting the implements directly on the rack instead of using pallets, or did you keep using pallets also?

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

I do both. Some implements, I use pallets, others straight on rack

[@MikeDPlxztc]

2 words. Steel toes👍

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Yes sir. I wear 'em👍

[@juanmartinezmbapmppmiacp2104]

Oh yeah!

[@MikePizzolatt]

where did you get the rack system?

[@ReapWhatYouSeauxLeJeune]

Nice. Lol timber Great job y’all

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Thank you 👍

[@shaneharrison4775]

Hank please tell me your anchoring the top to the walls and have them well braced I had put a bunch of them in when I was working in maintenance for shop vac and just dont wanna see you or the mrs. Get hurt with those they are quite dangerous

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

We did anchor them 👍

[@shaneharrison4775]

@@HamiltonvilleFarm good I'd hate for you or Gina to get hurt because of them racks see one of my jobs was to keep an eye out for damage from fork trucks which often twist the foot of the sprites and candy cane them half to a third of the way up. Make sure to give the cross sections a few womps with a 3 lb.. hammer to make sure their locked in and be sure the those pins work as they should . I loved working as a maintenance engineer most the time I was 35 40 feet in the air working loved it

[@shaneharrison4775]

@@carpenterguy9719 okay so why f$ am I not to care about someone's safety an ounce of commonsense is worth 10 lbs of cure maybe you always were lucky about sketchy works but my effort was that I know that those racks are dangerous from useing them and from haveing to disassemble them when someone clips one or two legs and compromises the integrity of the unit in warehouses their anchored to the floors dirt floors dont allow for anchoring so the next best thing is anchor to a wall and brace at the roof.

[@marksleeper9385]

nice

Did she try to drop that on you? 😂
