Information to prepare
- Floor plan, clear height and obstructions
- Pallet, carton or item dimensions
- Maximum load per pallet or shelf level
- Forklift type, turning radius and aisle target
- FIFO, LIFO or batch-storage requirement
Match access to density
Selective pallet racking keeps every pallet directly accessible. Drive-in, push-back, flow and shuttle systems increase density but add lane rules, stock grouping and handling constraints. VNA racking preserves selectivity but requires guided equipment and suitable floors.
Common mistakes
- Choosing by price before confirming load data
- Ignoring pallet quality and overhang
- Mixing FIFO and LIFO products in the same lane rule
- Forgetting protection, signs and installation scope
Next step
Share a simple layout, product data and handling method before asking for a quotation. This avoids comparing systems that solve different storage problems.
