Building type

Distribution & fulfillment centers
captured properly.

Racking, clear height, dock faces, slabs, and roofs measured in one mobilization.

Why this building type gets scanned

Automation retrofits need to know the building, not the lease plan. Our 3D scan service measures clear height under every obstruction, rack layouts, dock positions, slab flatness context, and roof geometry in a single trip.

  • Conveyor, AS/RS, and mezzanine installs fail on clear height and column grid surprises.
  • Dock face and yard geometry drives truck flow and trailer staging decisions.
  • Roof-mounted equipment and solar readiness need real slope and drainage data.
  • Portfolio owners want a consistent measured record across many buildings.

How a typical project runs

We walk the site or review drawings and photos, agree the areas and density, and set control. Field work is scheduled around your operations — nights, weekends, or planned outage windows where required. After registration and QA, the deliverable set is produced and reviewed with your team so the files are usable on day one. The full workflow is on our process page.

The deliverable set follows from the questions above. That comes out as a capture of the whole floor plate, as-built plans with clear heights called out, and an aerial map of the roof and truck court.

What we capture
  • Rack and aisle layouts
  • Clear height under joists, ducts, sprinkler
  • Dock doors, levelers, and dock faces
  • Slab and column grid context
  • Office and mezzanine build-outs
  • Roof and yard
Typical deliverables
  • Point cloud and clear-height maps
  • 2D as-built plans (DWG / PDF)
  • Roof ortho and area takeoff
  • Optional BIM model
Scope this building

Where distribution buildings get scanned

Automation retrofits and re-tenanting drive most of this work, and both start with the same unanswered questions: real clear height under every obstruction, where the column grid falls, and whether the dock face matches the lease plan.

In New York that covers cross-dock building capture in Brooklyn, clear-height surveys for distribution buildings in Cheektowaga, dock face and truck court capture in Colonie, automation retrofit scanning in Newburgh, and rack and aisle as-builts in Queens. New Jersey coverage includes clear-height surveys for distribution buildings in East Brunswick, dock face and truck court capture in Gloucester, automation retrofit scanning in Hamilton, rack and aisle as-builts in Howell, and cross-dock building capture in Jackson. On the Connecticut side it takes in dock face and truck court capture in Danbury and automation retrofit scanning in Manchester.
