Structural Steel Racking
Structural steel racking is installed throughout the facility providing a stronger, sturdier racking system.
With this fast-paced, high turnover environment, structural steel provides a more durable racking system able to accommodate heavier loads for the customer’s product.
38 Dock Doors and Large Parking Area
Richardson has 38 docks doors to accommodate a large number of trailers. All doors are sealed to contain temperatures and to create a barrier to outside elements. The docks vary from 36 ft to 54 ft deep to allow for staging and loading trailers.
A large concrete parking area allows for ease of access and maneuvering of vehicles.
Security Coverage
The security of your product, our employees and the premises is important to Lone Star Cold Storage. With that in mind, investments were made in several types of security systems.
- Burglar—A centrally monitored burglar system that alerts us to intrusion to keep the premises secure.
- Fire—The fire suppression system is centrally monitored 24/7 with sensors throughout the building and the racking. The system is specially designed for use in cold storage environments.
- Access—Building access is secured with a badge access system to prevent unauthorized personnel from entering the building.
- Cameras—Video cameras are installed throughout the premises with 24/7 access for monitoring the building and product movement.
- Data and Information Technology—A 3rd party provider manages the onsite servers and backups and provides off-site disaster recovery.
- Ammonia Sensors—The central monitoring system provides 24/7 notification for unusual ammonia levels in the facility.
