Back To Back Double Deep Pallet Rack With Low Maintenance

Back-to-back Double Deep Pallet Rack With Low Maintenance

Double deep pallet rack is a type of industrial shelving system used for the storage of palletized goods. It is designed to maximize storage density by allowing two pallets to be stored back-to-back within a single storage bay. This configuration effectively doubles the storage capacity of each bay while reducing the number of aisles required for access.

In a double deep pallet rack system, pallets are stored on rails that run the depth of the rack. This allows the forklift to access the pallets from the front of the rack, with the second pallet being stored behind the first. When a pallet needs to be retrieved, the forklift operator must first remove the front pallet before accessing the rear pallet.

The Difference Between Double Deep Racking and Selective Racking

The main difference between double deep pallet rack and selective pallet rack lies in the way the pallets are stored and accessed.

Selective pallet rack is the most common type of pallet racking system. It consists of vertical uprights, horizontal load beams, and diagonal bracing. The pallets are stored on these load beams and can be accessed directly from the aisle.

On the other hand, double deep pallet rack is designed to store two pallets deep, one behind the other, on each side of the aisle. This means that the pallets stored in the back of the rack can only be accessed by a special forklift with an extended reach. Double deep pallet rack can be a more space-efficient solution for storing large quantities of the same product, but it requires more careful inventory management and longer retrieval times.

In summary, selective pallet rack is designed for high selectivity and easy access to individual pallets, while double deep pallet rack is optimized for high storage density and requires special equipment to access the back pallets.

Conclusion

Double deep pallet rack systems are ideal for warehouses and distribution centers that have a large number of pallets to store and limited floor space. However, they require specialized forklifts with extended reach capabilities and may be less accessible than single-deep racks.
