Basic concepts

For beginners to understand the meaning and function of double deep pallet rack, here's some basic concepts that will help.

Warehouse racks details

• Pallet racks

Pallet racks refer to those storage racks and shelves that are mainly designed for palletized medium-duty to heavy-duty loads for industrial usage. In pallet racking systems, there are some basic parameters that we need to figure out.

♦ Columns: steel columns punched with different shaped holes for beam connecting

♦ Bracing: diagonal bracing and horizontal bracing

♦ Beam: there are step beams and box beams for option

♦ Upright frames: frames and beams connected together forming the basic storage bay

• Double deep pallet racks

To understand double deep pallet racks, let's learn the meaning of single pallet deep pallet racks. Commonly, in selective pallet racking, only one pallet load is stored at the right angle of the beams, called one-pallet-deep. In contrast with that, double deep pallet racking can store another pallet behind the first one, creating a doubled storage density.

So double deep pallet racks make better use of warehouse space compared to selective pallet systems. In some situations where space-efficiency matters more, double-deep pallet racks are more favorable for warehouse owners.

Features and advantages of double deep pallet racks:

• Improved space utilization. 

• Following Last-in/First-out stock rotation principle, double deep pallet racks maintain 50% selectivity and accessibility since the second pallet is blocked by the first one. 

• Suitable to medium to large volume products requiring limited selectivity.

• Relatively fewer SKUs while large quantity.

• Deep-reach forklifts are available for inside pallet picking and storing.
