What Is a Drive-in
Racking System?

A drive-in rack system allows you to store pallets multiple positions deep, loading and retrieving pallets from a single entrance. It relies on pallet racking components such as uprights, top tie beams and pallet support rails to provide the height and depth needed for deep storage.

This pallet flow racking system is highly customizable, enabling you to store pallets as high, wide or deep as your warehouse allows and your operations require. It helps you maximize the square footage in your warehouse, holding as many products as possible while still having room for other essential processes.

Drive-in racks are common in the food and beverage industry, though they can improve operations in any warehouse that utilizes last-in, first-out (LIFO) processes

A single pallet racking system consists of three main components:

01. Uprights

The pallet rack system’s vertical frames determine the material handling system’s height and depth.

02. Beams

These horizontal bars connect to the uprights to support
the pallets and dictate each bay’s length.

03. Wire decking

This component lays over the beams |and supports the pallets while keeping the beams from spreading.

Selective pallet rack systems are versatile, offering benefits to a wide range of industries such as:

Retail

Manufacturing

Food Handling

General Warehousing

Forklifts

Your racking system’s dimensions will also depend on your forklifts’ widths and heights. The racking system’s maximum height will be determined by the elevation height your forklifts can reach.

What space is available:

The height and width of open space in your warehouse affect how many racks you can fit into your facility.
