What pallet racking options are available to you?

Here at Logical Storage we understand that every business has different requirements that need to be met, and because of this we will always aim to provide a tailored service and use our knowledge and skills to recommend the best form of racking for you. Let’s take a look at some of the options that are available:

Wide-aisle

Wide-aisle pallet racking is among the most commonly used forms of pallet racking. It is made up of vertical frames and horizontal beams, all of which are fully adjustable which makes it a very versatile form of pallet-racking.

Very Narrow Aisle (VNA)

If you’re looking for a way of making the most of a high roofs, then VNA (very narrow aisle) racking should be your first choice. Used in conjunction with ‘man-up’ / ‘man down’ trucks you can store pallets very high within slim line aisles.

Double-deep

Just like wide-aisle racking, double deep racking utilizes adjustable frames and beams in order to store pallets in two’s at each picking face.  This increases warehouse efficiency by increasing the amount of storage possible.

Drive In / Drive through

For storage of bulk items, drive-in racking is ideal. Pallets are loaded close together which offers an increase in your overall warehouse storage capacity.

Dynamic push back

Dynamic push back racking uses trolleys and steel guide channels to hold pallets at a maximum of four pallets deep, per level. It is relatively quick to install and has a throughput 25% faster than Drive-in racking.

Dynamic pallet flow

If you are looking for automatic stock rotation then dynamic pallet flow racking is an obvious choice. It is loaded from the rear and off-loaded from the front with pallets placed on an inclined roller conveyor track which is supported by racking. It saves up to 60% more space than conventional pallet racking.
