The warehouse also features an explosion-proof draining system with an oil separator, ventilation fans with air exchange and damper, and a three-hour fire-rated wall separating the showroom from the warehouse. Add nearly 3,000 square feet of flexible office and storage space, secure storage with racking, and an eye-catching LED sign out front on Empire Street.
