Double Deep Racking
Double Deep Racking
Store-Rite Redirack Style Double Deep pallet racking is an economical method of achieving increased storage density in your warehouse. The cost for materials and installation is virtually.the same, per pallet position, as the cost for single selective pallet racking.
As the name denotes, pallets are stored ’2-deep’, one in front of the other, on similar racks to those used for Single Selective Racking. Double-Deep pallet racking will require a specialized Deep-Reach fork lift that has a specially designed panographing carriage that allows the operator to reach the deeper pallet in the racks.
Aisle sizes are slightly widened to accommodate the slightly larger double deep forklift-truck.
WHY CHOOSE STORE-RITE?
Store-Rite double deep pallet racking is the first system to look at when considering high-density Pallet Racking.
Utilizing a double deep reach truck, an operator can gain storage locations at the same cost of racking materials as a standard Selective Racking system, and can often re-use existing materials in the new double deep system. A typical double deep system can reduce the amount of space required for forklift aisles in your warehouse by 35% or more.
Double deep forklift aisle sizes are commonly 114″ to 126″ wide to accommodate the slightly larger lift-truck.
ADVANTAGES OF Double Deep Racking
When compared to other racking storage solutions, double deep offers a variety of unique advantages.
INCREASE PALLET POSITIONS
Double deep racking stores pallets two deep, increasing storage capacity in the same floor space. It's ideal for operations needing high-density storage in limited space.
REDUCE AISLE SPACE
By reducing the number of aisles required to access pallets, double deep racking allows for more efficient use of available space. Fewer aisles mean more room for storage racks and store pallet loads.
INCREASE PROFITS
The double deep racking system reduces the need for purchasing additional warehouse space, leading to cost savings on real estate and construction.
IS A Double Deep SYSTEM RIGHT FOR YOU?
DOUBLE DEEP TRUCKS REQUIRED
Double deep racking systems require specialized lift trucks with extended reach capabilities. These trucks are essential for accessing the second row of pallets safely and efficiently.
LIFO Inventory ManagemenT
Suited for last-in, first-out inventory systems, double deep racking is efficient for products with longer shelf lives or non-perishable items, where inventory rotation is less critical.
Moderate to High Volume SKUs
Ideally suited to SKUs with 6 pallets or more per SKU, double deep racking allows increased storage capacity by storing pallets two rows deep, trading aisle space for increased pallet counts within the same square footage.
