Pallet Racking Installation Services in Irving, TX

Pallet racking installation in Irving is defined by one thing no other DFW submarket has to deal with: FAA Part 77 imaginary surfaces. Buildings within the DFW Airport approach paths sit under height restrictions that apply not just to the building but to anything inside it that could affect radar or line-of-sight. On rack systems above 30' clear in the Las Colinas corridor and in the triangle between SH 114, SH 183, and Loop 12, we verify FAA Part 77 clearances before finalizing upright heights — and on rare occasions that is what drives the final rack spec.

Irving sits in Dallas County, so the seismic classification is ASCE 7 Seismic Design Category B — same as Dallas city, and heavier than Tarrant County SDC-A. Irving Development Services runs construction permits for most Irving addresses; Irving Fire Department handles high-piled storage under IFC Chapter 32. Buildings on DFW Airport property go through DFW Airport Board permitting instead of Irving CDS, which is a separate review track with its own document requirements and lead times.

The Freeport property tax exemption — Texas' inventory-in-transit exemption — is heavily used in Irving because of the airport cargo flow and the distribution-center density. Tenants claiming Freeport need inventory moving through the building within 175 days and documentation tied to specific inventory locations. Rack designs for Freeport-claiming tenants include location-tagging systems and slotting strategies that support the 175-day documentation requirement. Related installation work in nearby Dallas and Grand Prairie runs with shared Dallas County seismic packages.

Irving Installation Specifics

FAA Part 77, DFW Airport Board, Dallas County SDC-B, and Freeport documentation — the Irving-specific constraints that shape every install.

FAA Part 77 imaginary surfaces near DFW flight paths restrict building-interior heights on rack above 30' clear — we verify clearances before finalizing upright spec.
Dallas County Seismic Design Category B — same bracing demand as Dallas city, heavier than Tarrant County.
DFW Airport Board permitting applies to buildings on airport property — separate track from Irving CDS, with own document and lead-time requirements.
Irving Development Services + Irving Fire Department handle off-airport buildings — standard Dallas-County-style permitting.
Freeport property tax exemption compliance requires location-tagging and 175-day documentation — we design rack systems and slotting to support this.
Las Colinas corridor and SH 183 industrial stock mixes older 1970s–1990s tilt-ups with newer 2010s+ logistics buildings — slab conditions and anchor spec vary accordingly.

Pallet Racking Installation in Irving, TX: Common Questions

Does FAA Part 77 actually affect pallet racking installations in Irving?

On buildings within DFW Airport approach paths — particularly in Las Colinas and the SH 114 corridor — yes. Buildings sit under imaginary surfaces that restrict vertical obstruction, and upper-bay rack above 30' clear can come close to those limits in specific buildings. We verify FAA Part 77 clearance before finalizing upright heights on Irving projects within the approach corridors. The check is fast but non-optional.

How is permitting different for buildings on DFW Airport property versus off-airport Irving buildings?

Buildings on DFW Airport property go through DFW Airport Board permitting — a separate review track with its own document requirements, review durations, and fee structure. Off-airport Irving buildings go through Irving Development Services and Irving Fire Department, which is standard Dallas-County-style permitting (SDC-B seismic, Texas-PE stamps, IFC Ch 32 high-piled). The airport-board track typically runs 3–6 weeks longer on first-round, so we start earlier on those buildings.

What is a typical Irving racking install cost for a 200,000 sq ft Las Colinas distribution center?

For a 200,000 sq ft Las Colinas DC with 32'–36' clear, 7,000–9,500 pallet positions on selective+double-deep hybrid, including anchors, wire decks, in-rack sprinkler coordination above 25', and Irving permits, costs land between $520,000 and $850,000 on new steel. Used-steel options on the bulk portion save 20%–30%. FAA Part 77 clearance verification adds modest engineering cost where required.

Can Irving racking installs support Freeport property tax exemption claims?

Yes — we design rack systems and slotting strategies to support Freeport compliance. That means location-tagging systems that document pallet receipt and ship dates, slotting rules that segregate Freeport-eligible inventory from non-eligible, and coordination with the tenant's WMS and tax advisor on the 175-day documentation standard. Rack layout itself is standard; what changes is the location-numbering and reporting integration.
