CURRENT OPERATION
Keep product accessible
Identify the inventory, equipment, work areas and traffic routes that need to stay in service while the project moves forward.
WAREHOUSE EXPANSION AND RELOCATION PLANNING
Expanding, Relocating or Reconfiguring?
Whether you are adding space, moving into another facility or changing the layout you already have, the project needs to work around the operation. Two3 helps compare what can stay, what needs to move and which systems need to change.

The current operation still matters
PLAN THE TRANSITION
What stays, what moves and what changes
Expansion and relocation projects have two layouts to manage: the operation running today and the one that needs to work after the change. We plan both so equipment, inventory and installation are not treated as separate problems.
EXISTING SYSTEMS
Decide what can be reused
Document condition, dimensions, capacities and compatibility before existing rack or equipment is moved into a new plan.
PROJECT SEQUENCE
Build a workable transition
Coordinate staging, teardown, deliveries, installation and operating hours so each phase creates room for the next one.
FUTURE LAYOUT
Make the change worth it
Use the new layout to address capacity, travel, safety and growth, not just reproduce the constraints of the old space.
START WITH BOTH VERSIONS OF THE OPERATION
What we need to understand
Bring what you have. We can start before every detail is final.
- Current and future floor plans, dimensions, clear heights and column grids
- Existing rack, shelving, work areas and equipment that may move or stay
- Product, pallet, SKU and inventory profiles
- Receiving, storage, picking, production and shipping flow
- Target dates, lease milestones, downtime windows and phased-work limits
- Permitting, utilities, freight and installation constraints
IMAGINE
Compare the current and future layouts
We measure the space, document constraints and build layout options around what needs to stay, move or change. 2D concepts, 3D models and VR help stakeholders review the plan before material is ordered.
INTEGRATE
Match existing and new systems
We coordinate storage, automation, safety, workspace, permitting, freight and installation. When existing equipment is part of the plan, its condition, dimensions and compatibility still need to be evaluated for the intended use.
IMPLEMENT
Phase the work around the operation
Our in-house install team and project oversight carry the plan onto the jobsite. Delivery, teardown, reconfiguration and new installation are sequenced around access, safety and the agreed project schedule.
When should we bring Two3 into the project?
Any time. We can help while you are comparing spaces, planning the layout, deciding what to reuse or preparing for installation. If the project is already moving, we will start with the decisions that remain.
Can our existing rack be moved or reconfigured?
Sometimes, but it depends on the system, condition, dimensions, documentation, new configuration and project requirements. We can help inventory what is there and coordinate the evaluations needed before reuse is included in the final plan.
Can the work be completed in phases?
Often, yes. Phasing depends on available space, inventory access, operating hours, delivery timing and the systems involved. We plan the sequence around the actual constraints rather than assuming the building can shut down.
Can Two3 help us compare expansion, relocation and reconfiguration?
Yes. We can compare layout capacity, workflow, building constraints and system needs across the available options. The goal is to make the tradeoffs visible before the equipment plan is locked in.
Does Two3 handle projects outside Wisconsin?
Yes. Two3 has already completed installations in 33 states. Our team plans, sources and installs warehouse systems for projects nationwide.
