These are always kept in stock at Storage Solutions. Moreover, they can be used with different pallet rack designs. Another type is a structural pallet rack, which is made of thicker steel c-channels and the beams are always bolted to the upright.
Here at Storage Solutions, we stock different pallet rack types and designs. These different pallet racks can serve many purposes throughout your warehouse. Some of the rack types include selective pallet racks. This is the most common pallet rack used, it has low density but high selectivity accessibility to each item. In addition, we also stock the double-deep pallet rack, which is constructed back-to-back to allow for higher storage density, utilizing fewer forklift aisles.
Another design is a push-back pallet rack, which uses gravity flow and inclined rails to make the placement and retrieval of pallets easy. Forklifts can drive directly into the rack to drop off and pick up pallets. In addition, we also stock pallet flow racks. This design, which is driven by gravity, is equipped with wheels on sloped rails.
This unique design allows the pallets to flow forward from the entry side of the rack to the opposite side of the rack for picking. The cantilever rack utilizes cantilevered arms to store long and narrow items. In addition, if you want to see some images of our pallet rack types, you can view our visual glossary. If you are interested in learning more about our pallet racks give us a call at Corporate Office E. In this aspect, selective pallet rack offers operators the most flexible storage option.
Almost all pallet rack manufacturers offer a standard selective rack design for their customers, although not all are engineered and manufactured the same.
The easiest way for manufacturers to identify themselves amongst the other brands is by the beam-to-frame connectors. Each manufacturer has a slightly different beam-to-frame connector that differentiates them from the rest. Teardrop racking gets its name from the punch hole design on the upright frame, which resembles an upside down teardrop.
Selective racking comes in both roll formed and structural styles to meet the demands of specific applications. The structural design is commonly found in heavy-duty, rugged applications.
View our Pallet Rack Identifier at the bottom of the page to see the style or manufacturer of your pallet rack. Uprights have holes often teardrop-shaped on the front face of the columns into which the pins of the beam connectors engage.
Cross Beam — connects into the upright frame on both ends to create a shelf for the pallets to rest upon. Two beams make up one shelf level. Cross beams are available in numerous lengths and capacities. Wire Decking — is often used as a safety measure for the pallets being stored in the pallet rack system. Decking not only creates a safety measure for the rack system by expanding surface area, but also allows for better air circulation and water flow from sprinkler systems.
Inside Waterfall — Used on pallet rack in applications where the beam face needs to be open for barcoding or capacity labels. As seen in the image, the waterfall extends down the inside of the beam as opposed to the outer beam face. Hanging Shelf Dividers — These are used on pallet rack shelves to separate the contents of a beam level. These dividers work by hanging from the above decking and connecting to the deck at the bottom on the beam level.
Flue Spacers — Used on wire decking to create a flue space. Standing Shelf Divider — used in pallet rack shelves to create separation on a beam level. These simply clip into the wire decking on the beam level and secure themselves in place. Drive-In — Drive-in racking boasts the greatest storage density of any of our engineered pallet rack systems. By eliminating aisles in a rack system, the drive-in design is able to maximize vertical and horizontal space.
This contrasts to drive-in systems, in which lifts must back out in the same direction from which they entered. Push Back — Push back allows you to maximize space without sacrificing smooth and consistent product rotation.
Push back pallet rack increases pallet count while simultaneously offering more pick faces than the traditional drive-in pallet rack system. These systems are also highly effective for storing SKUs with multiple pallets and can store up to pallets 6 deep per lane. They offer an inexpensive design and the largest selection of sizes and accessories to be custom configured for your warehouse storage application.
Designed to get pallets off the warehouse floor and into a racking system, they provide immediate accessibility to store or unload pallets. Using selective pallet rack systems allows you to fully utilize your warehouse floor space as well as efficiently manage worker time. Selective storage racks are adjustable—allowing you to change the beam levels so you can find the right height for your load, or reconfigure the entire system for new or different sized pallets.
This flexibility allows you to customize and maximize storage space within the racking systems. Selective pallet racks are available in both roll formed and structural steel to accommodate your budget and support requirements. Selective pallet racks are great for: Standard storage of all needs that require immediate access to products or pallets. Drive-in pallet rack systems maximize warehouse space and allow for high-density storage of similar products or SKUs.
Drive-in rack systems offer maximum-density storage of similar products and pallets in your warehouse. Drive-in rack systems eliminate aisles in a warehouse facility because the drive-in system is made for storing high quantities of similar product which use the same entry and exit point for each bay or rack.
Since drive-in rack systems are fork-lift accessible, they offer maximum-density storage and product or pallets may be stored in lanes up to six or more positions deep on the rack. A forklift enters the racking from one side to load a pallet on to the back of the rack. From there, the pallets are loaded in working from front to back—giving more depth and up to 3X the amount of storage as selective pallet racking. This results in lower storage cost per pallet, per square foot. Drive in racking can be single entry where forklifts have access to one side only, or double entry where the forklifts can access both sides of the racking structure.
The drive-in system can be designed specifically to best fit your needs with different heights and depths, as well as a wide variety of different components. This system can be ordered in roll formed or structural steel for more support.
If you are looking for a space saving solution that can increase warehouse area, consider the drive-in system. Push back pallet racks are high-density storage solutions that load pallets from the front onto a nested cart system that slides on inclined rails. Push back pallet racks are stationary rack structures that load pallets from the front onto a nested cart system that slides on inclined rails.
A push back rack system is great for high-density storage of multiple product lines or SKUs. This product uses a design that eliminates maintenance and offers greater selectivity. In a push back system, a pallet is placed on a free rolling cart that is pushed back in to the system each time an additional pallet is loaded on to the system. These systems are available in two, three, four, five, and six-deep cart configurations.
Because the pallets slide down to the aisle position, a push back pallet rack is significantly faster to load and unload than a comparable drive-in rack. This system provides multiple pick faces while using fewer aisles, therefore opening up more warehouse space. Push back pallet racking systems are great for: Warehouses that need selectivity of selective racking, but flexibility and high-density storage of drive-in pallet racking.
As each load is removed, the pallet behind it automatically moves one position closer to the picking position. Using a pallet flow storage system can double or even triple the storage capacity in your facility compared to other methods. As each load is removed, the pallet behind it automatically moves forward one position closer to the picking position. This makes for an automatic stock rotation, therefore, reducing labor costs.
Thanks to the pallet flow system, companies notice that inventory turnover becomes quick and efficient. Pallet speed can be controlled by the type of rollers and brakes engineered into the system. This system is heavily utilized by companies which have expiration date-sensitive products, which is why they are heavily utilized in freezer warehouse or food distribution centers.
Pallet flow systems offer accessories to fit the needs of your product and can be designed to accommodate a depth of up to 20 pallets. Pallet flow racking systems are great for: Companies who store or distribute dairy, deli, pharmaceuticals, or other date-sensitive or perishable items. Carton flow systems can be loaded from the back and the product cartons slide down gravity-fed rollers or wheels to the front of the racking for picking and packing orders.
Essentially, carton flow racking systems are the same as pallet flow racks, but designed for boxes and small products, or split case picking. While using the First in First out FIFO method, carton flow rack brings a dramatic upgrade in cost-savings because it improves warehouse efficiency by organizing product and rotating stock automatically.
Typically found in warehouses with high volume order picking, these systems can be loaded from the back and the product cartons slide down gravity-fed rollers or wheels to the front of the racking system for picking and packing orders. Carton flow rack systems are versatile and can accommodate fast-moving to slow-moving inventory, and are ideal for odd-shaped cases, cartons, bins, or merchandise.
Carton flow pallet racking systems are great for: Warehouses that utilize split-carton picking and require high-volume order picking.
