Which Pallet Racking is Right for My Business?

You need to consider various factors when choosing pallet racking for managing your warehouse inventor.  Too many times we focus only on optimising the storage space. 

Buying the best commercial warehouse racks. Here are other factors you need to consider:

• The floor space capacity at the warehouse;
• Height of the warehouse ceiling;
• Types of storage materials;
• Frequency of accessing the pallets
• The shelf life of the stored items;
• Inventory method you follow: FIFO or LIFO;
• Types and sizes of forklifts you use to access the pallet racking systems.

According to these listed factors, the workers in your warehouse can move through the different pallet racks and pick the right item for inventory management. 

Types of Pallet Racking:

Selective Pallet Racking

This is the most common way of storing pallets. This method provides instant access to any pallet without shuffling any stock. 

• Standard Selective Pallet Racking: Standard selective pallet racking optimises the storage and improves flexibility, access, and movement within the floor space. 

• Double-deep Pallet Racking: Double-deep pallet racking is perhaps an ideal blend of selective and non-selective pallet racking systems. 

• Narrow Aisle Pallet Racking: It is a traditional selective pallet racking containing narrower aisles and is used for pairing up with a specifically designed turret truck. 

High-Density Pallet Storing

High-density or non-selective pallet racking systems have excellent space efficiency. 

• Drive-In Pallet Racking: Drive-in racking is the most cost-effective racking solution for high-density pallet storing. It maximises warehouse space and accommodates the use of various forklifts.

• Push-back Pallet Racking: This type of pallet racking provides storage where pallet storing is done 2, 3, and 4 deep. In this method, stored items are pushed back on rails mounted within the pallet racking. 

• Pallet Live Storage : Pallet Live Storage or PLS are loaded in the rear side of the racking and slowly roll forward using rubber or steel wheels to the front position. 

• Satellite Racking: Semi-automated satellite racking is perfect for shielding materials at shipping docks before loaded to trucks. 

• Mobile Pallet Racking: Mobile racking is a single or double deep rack that is mounted onto the mobile bases.
