A pallet rack is a storage facility used to store items in the skids. The most common feature of these facilities is the way materials are stored in horizontal rows and multiple levels depending on what the user wants. They are common in stores that need to minimize on storage space. The fact that the pallet height is determined by the height of the building and what the user is comfortable with makes them more effective and convenient. They are available in a wide variety of sizes and designs.
Types of Pallet Racks
There are many types of pallet racks. Their classification depends on how they are used as well as how they are designed. It is important to understand that each one of these types has its specific use. If you are thinking about getting some for your store, you need to start by knowing what suits you best. Ask yourself the specific conditions under which you will be using them before you make any choice. Additionally, you should ensure that a qualified technician has had a look at your situation and recommended specific types. Here are the options you have:
Selective pallet racking systems
- Drive-in and drive through
- Push back
- Pallet flow
- Compact mobilized pallet racks
Safety Precautions When Using the Racks
Although these facilities make it very easy to store your palletized items, you also need to know that there are risks that are associated with their usage. There are cases whereby people have sustained serious injuries just because they did not know how to keep safe. Since no such thing should ever happen to you or to anyone else using these storage facilities, here are some of the precautions that you can take:
- Always check for any components in the system that might be loose or worn out and have them fixed very fast.
- Warn all people around you not to climb on the racks during or even after assembly.
- Do not place the racks directly at the end of isles. If you obstruct, it is a big danger.
- Regularly conduct rack audits just to be sure that you are safe.
By and large, pallet racks are definitely a good addition to your store. You only need to remember that the efficiency and ease with which you can use them largely depends on how you choose and take care of them.
