Racking System Options for Different Storage Needs

No two warehouses operate the same way, which is why the best storage racking solution depends on your products, stock turnover, and operational requirements. SSA supplies a wide range of racking systems to suit different environments and applications.

Selective Pallet Racking

Selective pallet racking is a popular choice for general warehouse storage. It provides direct access to every pallet, making it ideal for businesses managing a wide range of stock with frequent picking requirements.

Double Deep Racking

Double deep racking stores pallets two deep to increase storage density. It is well suited to businesses holding larger quantities of similar stock where immediate access to every pallet is not essential.

Tyre Racking

Tyre racking is commonly used by tyre retailers and automotive workshops. It provides tailored, accessible tyre storage while making efficient use of vertical space.

Carpet Racking

Carpet racking is designed for storing carpet rolls, vinyl, and other long materials that do not suit conventional pallet storage systems. It is commonly used by flooring suppliers, retailers, and warehouses storing rolled products.

Drive-In Racking

Drive-in racking offers high-density storage for businesses managing large volumes of the same stock. Common applications include cold storage facilities, manufacturing environments, and wholesale distribution centres where maximising storage density is a priority.

Cantilever Racking

Cantilever racking is ideal for oversized, bulky, or irregularly shaped items such as timber, pipes, furniture, and sheet materials. Commonly used in timber yards, manufacturing facilities, and trade supply businesses, it is often paired with pallet racking to create a complete warehouse storage solution.

If you're storing hand-loaded stock, smaller items, or mixed inventory, alternative systems such as heavy duty shelving, longspan shelving, or garage shelving may also be worth considering. Our team can help recommend the most suitable solution based on your products and workflow requirements.

What to Consider When Choosing a Racking System

Choosing the right racking system is about more than simply fitting additional bays into your warehouse. The ideal setup should support your stock profile, improve accessibility, and accommodate future growth.

A few important factors to consider include:

  • Stock Type: Consider whether you're storing palletised goods, hand-loaded items, tyres, carpet rolls, oversized materials, or mixed inventory.
  • Storage Volume: Businesses storing larger quantities of similar stock may benefit from higher-density systems such as double deep or drive-in racking.
  • Access Requirements: Selective pallet racking provides direct access to every pallet, while higher-density systems prioritise storage capacity over accessibility.
  • Load Capacity: The weight of your stock influences beam selection, frame specifications, and Safe Working Load requirements. All our systems are supplied and installed with AS4084:2023 compliant load signage.
  • Warehouse Layout: Ceiling height, aisle widths, forklift clearance, and traffic flow all play an important role when designing an effective warehouse storage layout.
  • Future Expansion: Choosing a flexible system can make it easier to add bays, adjust beam levels, or expand your storage as operational requirements change.
  • Accessories and Safety Features: Products such as rack protection, steel mesh, mesh decks, safety barriers, and additional beam levels can improve both safety and functionality throughout your warehouse.

If you're unsure which racking system is right for your business, our team can review your requirements and recommend a practical solution.

Pallet Racking Setups FAQs

What is pallet racking?

Pallet racking is a warehouse storage system designed to maximise storage capacity and accessibility of palletised stocks. It helps maximise floor space, improve organisation, and maintain efficient stock accessibility. It is a highly configurable system that can be tailored to business specific workflows, stock and space requirements. 

What types of pallet racking systems are available?

Common pallet racking systems include selective pallet racking, double deep racking, drive-in racking, tyre racking, carpet racking, and cantilever racking. The right solution depends on your stock profile, access requirements, and available warehouse space.

How do I choose the right pallet racking system for my warehouse?

Consider your stock type, pallet weights, inventory turnover, and warehouse layout. Selective pallet racking suits operations requiring regular pallet access, while drive-in and double deep systems offer increased storage density for bulk stock.

If you're unsure which system is most suitable, our team can help review your requirements and recommend an appropriate solution.

What are the standard pallet racking dimensions?

Pallet racking dimensions vary depending on the intended application and storage requirements. Common sizes include:

Frame Heights

  • 1800mm to 9000mm+ to suit different warehouse layouts and ceiling heights.

Frame Depths

  • 600mm-610mm: Commonly used for tyre storage or shelving applications.
  • 838mm-840mm: A standard depth for pallet storage.
  • 1200mm-1219mm: Often used for carpet racking or storing sheets of building materials.

Beam Lengths

  • 1370mm-1372mm: Suitable for one standard-sized pallet (half beam).
  • 2591mm-2600mm: Accommodates two standard-sized pallets with no overhang.
  • 2743mm-2750mm: Accommodates two standard-sized pallets with overhang.
  • 3048-3050mm: Suitable for oversized pallets, sheet materials, or bulk items.
  • 3353mm, 3658mm, and 3810mm: Commonly used for bridge bays, furniture storage, or larger but lighter products.

If you're unsure which dimensions will suit your warehouse, our team can help recommend an appropriate configuration.

Can pallet racks be configured to suit specific warehouse layouts?

Yes. Pallet racking systems can be configured by height, depth, beam length, and bay layout to suit different warehouse environments, pallet sizes, and operational requirements.

What safety considerations are important when using pallet racking?

Pallet racking should always be used within its Safe Working Load limits. Safety clips should remain fitted, damaged components should be replaced promptly, and forklift operators should be appropriately trained.

Regular inspections are recommended to maintain the integrity of your racking system.

How much weight can a typical pallet rack hold?

The load capacity of a pallet racking system depends on factors such as frame height, beam length, beam profile, and the number of beam levels within each bay. Standard pallet racking systems commonly support up to 2,800kg per pair of beams, while total bay capacities can range between 4,000kg and 10,000kg depending on the system configuration.

If you are storing particularly heavy stock or have specific load requirements, our team can recommend a suitable solution and confirm the appropriate Safe Working Load ratings for your application.

What are the benefits of using a pallet racking system?

Pallet racking helps maximise storage capacity, improve stock organisation, and create safer, more accessible warehouse environments. By making better use of vertical space, businesses can improve workflow efficiency while maintaining clear storage zones throughout their facility.

How should pallet racking be installed?

We recommend professional installation to ensure pallet racking is installed safely and correctly. Improper installation may compromise the integrity of the system and increase maintenance requirements over time.

In accordance with AS4084:2023, mechanically loaded pallet racking systems require Safe Working Load signage. SSA can provide compliant signage for systems supplied and installed by our team.

Where can I find replacement parts for my pallet racking system?

SSA stocks a wide range of pallet racking components and replacement parts across major brands and sizes. If you cannot find the item you require online, please contact our team. Our inventory changes regularly, and additional components may be available through our broader stock holdings.
