Very narrow aisle racking

A very narrow aisle (VNA) racking system is often a potential solution for warehouses where space is at a premium.

VNA racking utilises Adjustable Pallet Racking (APR). It provides storage for a higher concentration of pallets, by reducing the aisle width to between 2.7 and 1.6 meters. This type of racking configuration requires the use of reach trucks, articulated forklift trucks, very narrow aisle or turret trucks to deposit and access pallets.

Double Deep racking

Double deep racking combines standard pallet racking components with a specialist forklift truck attachment to allow pallets to be stored two deep, as well as back-to-back, thereby removing the number of aisles required when compared to a standard single-deep solution. Generally, the products stored in each of the two locations would be the same; and since the front pallet will need to be removed to access the rear pallet, the last-in-first-out principle applies.

Mobile pallet racking

Mobile racking can be an excellent option when floor space is at a premium. It looks and operates like standard racking, but is mounted on mobile bases, so the structure moves left to right, reducing the number of aisles required.

Pallet Live Racking

Pallet live racking is driven by gravity and is perfect for fast-moving products. This system can achieve some of the densest forms of storage with guaranteed stock rotation.

Working on a (FIFO) first-in-first-out basis, the pallets are stored in a block system. The system requires separate aisles for input and output operations.

Drive In/ Drive-Through Racking

Drive-in racking is an ideal solution when high-density storage is required. It is very similar to block stacking, as pallets are stored on cantilevered rails. Thereby making the loading and retrieval of pallets simpler, but also prevents goods from becoming damaged.

This system enables more pallets to be stored per cubic metre than any other storage system available on the market. Stock rotation is however limited, so the system is best suited to the storage of seasonal goods or bulk goods of the same type.

Pallet Shuttle System

A pallet shuttle system is a high-density, compact storage solution that utilises remote-controlled, powered satellites to lift, move and place pallets within the rack. Due to the use of the in-rack satellite, pallets can be retrieved from any level, at any time, resulting in a much higher level of selectivity when compared with other dense storage solutions.

Multi-Tier Racking

A multi-tier racking-structure functions as a multi-level system that supports hand loaded shelved levels. It is a solution that offers high-levels of space utilisation.

Cantilever Racking

Cantilever racking is an extremely versatile and robust form of storage for long or awkward items such as pipes, steel or timber.

Products are supported across two or more arms on fitted decks, which are positioned across runs of cantilever arms. The products are then handled by forklift trucks, crane systems or by manually.
