Pallet racks are the most popular type of storage system for warehouse storage. Warehouse pallet racks can be designed for pallets, boxes, cartons, furniture, carpet, records archives, crates, bulk storage, and almost any other type of raw goods and finished products.
Our engineering department can design a storage system for almost any application in the material handling industry, from heavy duty pallet racks to light duty pallet racks, and everything in between. Visit our used pallet rack page.

Selective pallet rack is the most common type of pallet rack system. Each pallet position has direct access from the pick aisle. For standard pallets, the most common size is 8 and 12 feet wide to store 2 or 3 pallets side by side. The most common depth is 42" or 44", but many other applications are better suited using 36" or 48" deep.
We currently have Frazier structural drive-in pallet racks in stock and ready to deliver. These racks are located at our San Diego storage yard and can be shipped anywhere in California.
Pushback pallet rack is an accumulative storage system that allows you to store up to five pallets deep per level.
All of the pallets on each level, except the last, are placed on a set of trolleys that are pushed along the rolling rails. These rails are build on a slight incline, lower at the front, so that the pallets at the back move forward when the pallets closest to the aisle is removed.
All the pallets placed on a particular level must contain the same SKU and are managed using the Last In First Out (LIFO) system.
Pallet flow rack is a storage system where pallets are fed from one side, and retrieved from the other. This system uses a combination of rails and wheels. The rails are built on a slight incline, higher on the side that is fed, so that the pallets move forward when they are loaded into the system.
All the pallets placed on a particular level must contain the same SKU and are managed using the First In First Out (FIFO) system.
Carton flow rack is similar to flow pallet rack, except cartons and/or boxes are being stored.
One of the most common problems are lower portions of posts being exposed to damage by forklift trucks and other moving equipment. Once upright posts have been 'hit' and are no longer straight, they do not carry the same structural integrity for your storage loads. In many circumstances, pallet rack repair can be conducted on location

The type of pallet rack decking will depend on the customers' needs. Some types of pallet rack decking include wiremesh decks, used wiremesh decks, pallet support bars, punchdeck, bdeck, solid deck, metal deck, and wire deck, and lumber decking.
Interlake pallet racks are an industry standard. Interlake steel corporation was established in 1964. Their influence in the material handling industry has been key in the fundamental development of pallet racks (both structural and roll-formed), drive in/drive thru, mezzanines, bulk storage, and cantilever rack.

Our installers can move pallet rack to another location or warehouse facility. We provide services to "relocate" storage systems including teardown, packaging & shipping, and re-installing the system at your new warehouse location.
When moving pallet rack systems to another location or warehouse facility, our material handling experts will evaluate your new storage area to see if your getting the maximum efficiency out of that area.
Pallet rack installation requires an experienced material handling crew with the proper tools and the right equipment. The pallet rack installation should follow the design layout, which is prepared in advance by the project management team.
Structural pallet rack systems are primarily used for heavy-duty storage. Please call for more details on heavy duty pallet rack applications.
