No matter what industry you work in or how much warehouse space you have to work with, choosing the right type of pallet racking for your business can go a long way in creating an efficient work environment. If you are unsure how to choose a pallet racking system for your unique business, the team of experts from Commander Warehouse has put together some simple tips for selecting the best pallet racking system to help you make an informed decision.
Before selecting a pallet racking system for your business, it is important to first determine which type of pallet racking will allow you to increase the warehouse’s space operation. Businesses that need to store longer products, such as wood, metal, or pipes, can benefit from the use of cantilever racking, while warehouses that need to maximize storage space would often be better off selecting push back racks, drive-in racks, or drive-thru racks.
The type of products that you store in the warehouse will directly affect the type of pallet racking that will work best. Businesses that have order picking systems should select pallet racks based on the type of products being offered, how the items are ordered, and how the items are packaged.
It is important to take the time to evaluate the current shelving units in the warehouse in order to determine which type of pallet racking system will be the best fit for your business’ requirements. If you need direct access to products at all times, consider purchasing selective pallet racking systems; on the other hand, if you are wanting to increase storage space, push back racking systems might be a better fit.
One of the most important things that you should take into consideration when selecting the best pallet racking system for a warehouse is how wide the aisles need to be. If your warehouse stores lots of heavy products, making sure that the aisles are wide enough to properly accommodate a forklift will make placing, removing, and repositioning products much easier.
