When you’re moving mining components worth thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars, the equipment used to transport and store them can make a huge difference to productivity. The choice of frame may be the difference between a part being ready for use or the component requiring major rework. Low-cost pallets, makeshift frames and unsuitable storage solutions might seem like a saving upfront. But if your critical component is damaged, the true cost of component logistics is determined not only by the price of your chosen frame, but the risk to compliance and performance.
Specialising in Component Logistics Engineering
DAYWALK are the go-to experts in the space of component logistics, with a world-class team of engineers who develop solutions for heavy industry. Working with mining operations, the energy sector, Defence, OEMs and maintenance teams, we develop transport and storage products that protect valuable assets throughout their lifecycle.
When comparing our pre-engineered, certified component frames with a cheap alternative, you can see where the values lie. Our frames are fit-for-purpose, made from quality materials and manufactured well, certified for compliance, and engineered to increase the efficiency of your operations.
They are also tough and built to last, so you don’t pay twice. This ensure they protect high-value assets, safety and the productivity of your operations.
Engineering Solutions Built Around Your Components
Not every component can be safely stored or transported on an economy pallet. Heavy motors, gearboxes, hydraulic cylinders, pumps, final drives and other critical spares have different support, restraint and handling requirements. Place a heavy component on a weak, unreliable pallet or frame, and you could not only be risking the performance of the part, but your own compliance, safety and productivity.
DAYWALK delivers engineered products and practical solutions designed for heavy components, that are specifically developed to protect the asset, teams and organisations that work with them.
While some of our tiered product options may require a greater upfront investment than basic alternatives, that investment provides a reassurance that your pallet, frame or cage will outperform inferior models.
How Much Are DAYWALK Pallets, Frames & Cages?
Here’s an overview of our main product categories and indicative starting prices.
-
Steel Pallets
Steel pallets provide a reusable, heavy-duty option for moving and storing components. They can be designed for forklift handling, stacking and specific load requirements, helping improve consistency across warehouses, workshops and transport operations. DAYWALK’s steel pallet range includes solutions for different component sizes, weights and applications. Pricing starts with our entry-level Xyphos pallets, through to the popular Spartan range, and our Heavy Duty adjustable system, called Adapta pallets.
Indicative starting price: $300–$400 per pallet
-
Steel Mesh Cages
Steel mesh cages help keep parts, accessories and smaller components contained during storage and handling. They can improve organisation, visibility and access compared with loose storage on the warehouse floor. DAYWALK offers heavy-duty cage solutions for industrial environments, with options including Xyphos, Safety and Heavy Duty models.
Indicative starting price: $400-$700 per cage
-
Component-Specific Transport Frames
Components with unusual shapes, delicate surfaces or specialised handling requirements may need dedicated support. DAYWALK’s range includes solutions for cylindrical components, hydraulic cylinders, final drives and other mobile plant parts, along with accessories to support loading and restraint.
Pricing varies according to the product, size, capacity and configuration. Selecting the right solution helps teams handle components more consistently and reduces reliance on improvised methods. While an economy option may appear a good buy initially, the real cost of choosing the wrong frame can be much, much higher when you consider potential damage, delays and safety concerns.
Indicative starting price: $1200 per frame
-
Custom Transport Frame Projects
Custom projects for transport and storage solutions for critical components are carried out by our inhouse team here at DAYWALK. When standard solutions don’t fit the requirements, there is the option of considering custom transport frames or storage, engineered to spec.
The final investment depends on the scope and complexity of the project. Talk to the DAYWALK Projects Team for further information.
Indicative starting price for projects: $10,000+, not including engineering costs
Moving Beyond the Purchase Price
The purchase price is only one part of the cost of component logistics. Damage, replacement parts, rework, handling inefficiencies, safety issues, downtime and delays can all affect the total cost of ownership.
DAYWALK combines engineering expertise with practical component logistics solutions to help businesses make informed decisions about protecting their assets. Talk to DAYWALK about a component logistics solution designed to keep your critical parts and your operation moving.
