Forklift using drive in pallet racking.

Drive-In Pallet Racking

Drive-in pallet racking is pallet racking that allows a forklift to be driven into it to store pallets deeper in the racking. In this way, warehouses are able to achieve very high density of storage (up to 75% more compared to other types of racking) because the need for aisles between racks is removed. Drive-in pallet racking can be modified to suit most types of forklifts and pallets.

Drive-in pallet racking suits storage situations that can be high density and don’t need all stock to be accessible at all times. A common application for drive-in pallet racking is warehouses that don’t have a large amount of SKUs and where stock rotation isn’t a priority. Drive-in pallet racking is a first in, last out type of storage, so stock at the front of the racking needs to be removed before stock at the back can be accessed.

Benefits of Drive-In Pallet Racking

Drive in pallet racking is a good pallet racking choice for a number of storage situations. Its key benefits include:

  • High density storage that works well for warehouses with few SKUs or many pallets of the same SKU.
  • Great value for money compared to overall footprint of racking.
  • Can be modified for most types of forklifts and pallet sizes.

Why Use Drive-In Pallet Racking

Consider using drive-in pallet racking if overall storage density is an important part of your storage needs and is more important than high selectivity of stock. It’s also important to note that drive-in pallet racking is a first in, last out storage solution. This can work well for a number of situations, but may not be suitable to situations where stock rotation is of high priority. While high density first in, first out racking solutions exist, for example pallet live storage, drive in pallet racking is often a more affordable option.

Determining the right racking for a business can be difficult, especially when you’re trying to weigh up storage density and stock accessibility needs. After all, there are a lot of different pallet racking solutions to choose from. But we’re here to help. Beyond just selling and installing pallet racking, we also have the expert staff on hand to work with you to determine the exact storage solution that will be best for your warehouse.
