Pallet Rack Beams

When it comes to creating a pallet rack kit, customization is key. This allows you to tailor the kit to your specific storage needs by considering factors like product measurements, pallet sizes, and weight. By doing so, you can optimize storage capacity and ensure the kit fits seamlessly into the available space.

But customization goes beyond just product measurements. It's important to take into account other factors like ceiling height, sprinklers, and lighting in the warehouse during the planning phase to ensure the pallet rack kit meets safety regulations as well as your storage requirements.

Examining all relevant factors in detail will help you create a customized selective pallet racking kit that maximizes your warehouse's storage capacity and efficiency. Proper installation and regular maintenance of the kit are crucial to ensure it lasts and functions optimally. With a well-executed plan and ongoing care, you can enhance your storage capabilities and overall warehouse operations.

Selective Pallet Rack Uprights

Pallet rack uprights serve as a framework for pallet racks, which allows for well-organized storage of palletized loads or large containers. The uprights connect to compatible beams, creating racks with multiple levels of shelves. A starter rack needs two uprights, while an expansion to an existing rack requires only one.

Selective Pallet Rack Beams

Pallet racks cannot be complete without cross beams used in warehouse racking. Crossbeams are essential elements of a selective pallet rack system. They are combined with vertical uprights to create pallet racking. Different terms have been attributed to describe warehouse racking cross beams, including beams, cross beams, step beams, load beams, and stringers. However, they all create shelves and are regularly utilized to uphold palletized products in the warehouse. The capacity of the cross beam is dictated by the height of the front face and the thickness of the steel.

Selective Pallet Rack Wire Decks

Wire decking is placed on the crossbeams to give support to the products it is holding. This is also a safety measure to prevent pallets or the products stored on them from falling through. Wire mesh construction also allows for easy identification of shelf contents. It also prevents dirt and other debris from accumulating on the shelves because of the holes in the mesh. Most wire mesh decking has U-shaped channel supports, also known as struts, to support the load. Waterfall decking extends across the top and down the front of the beam to provide more support. Upturned waterfall decking can provide containment of a loose product to prevent the product from falling behind the rack system. Lay-in decking does not have any U-shaped features at all. It is often called flush decking and rests inside the step of the beam,

It is crucial to be able to enhance your selective pallet racking with accessories to fit your needs.  Adding safety nets allows palleted products to be secure without the concern of items falling on workers.  Post protectors with allow the user to secure a pallet rack to the floor without the risk of having a rack tip over.  When using a lift truck this is of utmost concern.  Adding post protectors reduces this risk.
