MOST COMMON TYPES OF PALLET RACKING

POSTED IN: Pallet Racking 03/08/2021

When it comes to organizing a commercial warehouse or facility, many business owners run into the same problem time and time again—a lack of available space for their products and materials.

Rather than rushing out to spend money on a larger space, however, what if there was a better way to utilize the existing square footage you already have?

That’s where the high-quality pallet racking systems from DACO come in!

Our company is proud to offer some of the most durable new pallet racking systems and used components on the market. Not only will these cutting-edge products help make the most of your existing space, but they will also improve the overall productivity of your business.

Deciding to install pallet racking at your location is an easy decision to make. The only problem left to solve is figuring out which type is best for your company’s unique requirements.

With so many great options to choose from, our commercial design experts can help you figure out which pallet racking system is right for your organizational needs.

SELECTIVE PALLET RACKING

In discussing the most common types of pallet racking products sold at DACO, we might as well start with one of our most popular options—our selective pallet racking systems.

One of the best things about this type of commercial storage system is the fact that it’s a versatile option for all of your manufacturing, distribution, and production needs. It’s a versatile system that can be employed for a wide range of different industries. Plus, it’s one of the most budget-friendly systems available.

DRIVE-IN AND DRIVE-THRU PALLET RACKING

If your business deals with products and materials that aren’t date-sensitive, our drive-in and drive-thru pallet racking systems could be an ideal choice for your facility. The various forklift entry points help to streamline the loading and unloading process.

Drive-in racking systems utilize a “last-in-first-out” (LIFO) inventory system that’s great for shelf-stable items. On the other hand, Drive-Thru rack systems utilize a first-in, first-out (FIFO) inventory system, and are better suited for date sensitive products.

CANTILEVER PALLET RACKING

Many businesses deal with long, bulky items that aren’t easily stored on traditional shelving options. For example, if you need to organize lumber, doors, or furniture, cantilever pallet racking is for you.

This unique variation of a pallet racking system includes a series of single columns that are accented by extendable arms and heavy bases. Since every business has different expectations, you can fully customize these systems to suit your individual needs better.

PALLET FLOW PALLET RACKING

Another popular option for various businesses, pallet flow pallet racking systems are used to create seamless loading and unloading systems. This type of system features angled slopes and metal skate wheels to instantly move the next pallet on the rack into the “picking position,” when another is taken off. By utilizing the natural flow of gravity, you can feel confident that this type of system will improve your overall productivity.

PUSH BACK PALLET RACKING

Push back pallet racking offers a common “last-in-first-out” (LIFO) inventory management system that’s an optimal choice for multiple SKUs of medium turnover products.

Another gravity-powered storage product, these types of pallet racks offer easy access to all stored materials and can increase the storage space in your warehouse or facility by up to 90%.

PICK MODULES

Are you interested in outfitting your facility with several different types of systems that can work together such as pallet racking and conveyor? If so, purchasing a pick module type system could be a good option to explore.

These custom systems are designed and created to meet several of your operational demands at once. They can assist with storage, manufacturing, and shipping procedures. These types of systems are most often found in food/beverage companies, retail stores, and e-commerce companies.

USED PALLET RACKING

If your company is needing to replace individual components such as uprights, beams or wire decking, used pallet racking might be a good option, if we can match up with what you currently have. Our team carefully examines each used pallet rack component we receive, to ensure it still offers the high-grade quality we believe in offering to our customers.

WHAT’S THE BEST TYPE OF PALLET RACKING FOR YOUR BUSINESS?

Any of the pallet racking systems that DACO offers, can do wonders for the storage and production elements of your commercial or industrial space. This doesn’t mean, however, that all of them are the best option for your facility.

If you’re interested in finding the right type of pallet racking equipment for your business, our qualified team of commercial design experts is here to help you determine the most functional system for your operational requirements.
