INSTALLATION
With over 40 years experience, Metric’s installation teams are highly skilled and trained in the installation of all warehouse storage products and are technically proficient in every product that we offer. Throughout the installation, our crews and project managers maintain constant communication to facilitate any changes that need to be made on the jobsite.
Our installation teams maintained an impeccable safety record. We ensure all of our installers are properly trained in equipment operation, First Aid, fall arrest, Workplace Hazardous Material Information System (WHMIS) and more. In addition to our own Safety Policy, we easily adapt to any customer’s additional safety training programs. Prior to the start of any project, we provide a copy of our Installation Safety Policy, Certificates of Training, Workplace Safety Insurance Board (WSIB) Clearance Certificates and liability insurance.
PROJECT MANAGEMENT
At Metric, our Project Managers follow our 5-step process, each of which is done with the intent of delivering the best solution and service possible.
STEP 1: Consultation
One of our project managers will visit your facility, evaluate your requirements, and establish the appropriate solution based on best practices.
STEP 2: Design & Layout
The project manager will then work with our in-house Design team, Manufacturer Representatives, and Engineers to create the perfect solution with your very own personalized CAD drawings.
STEP 3: Project Proposal
Once the plan of action has been developed and all the details have been addressed, we will then provide you with a proposal, project pricing, and detailed drawings.
STEP 4: Installation
The project manager will then co-ordinate the delivery and installation with our Logistics and Installation Managers to ensure the solution is carefully being executed.
STEP 5: Service & Support
Once the installation process is complete we will ensure we are always available and at your service to provide you with ongoing support, as well as to address any future requirements.
DESIGN & CAD DRAWINGS
At Metric we have a team of Designers that use the latest software to help you conceptualize your ideas and help bring them to life. Our design services and drawings are available at no extra charge and are an integral part to the planning stage.
First, we will evaluate your inventory, processing needs, employee traffic, storage methods, and goals. Then we will design the most effective configuration of storage and processing systems that will best utilize your space, equipment, and labor force.
SPACE-PLANNING/OPTIMIZATION
Not enough space? Or are you trying to optimize space in your warehouse or facility? With our extensive warehousing operations experience our storage specialists can help you maximize utilization, improve flexibility and save time and space!
We will visit your facility, for a no charge assessment and consultation of your facility. Then we will take an evaluation of the area and conduct a storage analysis to help determine the best solutions possible.
Throughout this process some of the tactics include;
- Comparing your storage to floor space ratio

- Minimizing the wasted air space in your system
- Extending your system vertically to take advantage of useable height
- Installing a mezzanine to double the useable floor space
