In a drive-in racking system, forklifts enter the racking’s interior at a single entry point to place pallets.

Operators place each pallet at the rear of the racking, working their way with each pallet back toward the entry point.

When unloading, operators perform the opposite procedure. That is, working their way back into the interior of the racking with each pallet removal.

This racking system is best for Last-In, First-Out (LIFO) inventory management and operations with high volumes and few SKUs.

  • High-density design allows up to 75 percent more pallets than a standard pallet rack with up to 10 pallet positions
  • Reduced aisle space requirements with single or double entry points for loading and unloading
  • Robust construction with frames and vertical cross bracing along the back of the system for added stability
  • Enhanced damage protection with offset or kant-back bases, floor-mounted guide angles, and rack-mounted rub rails
  • Customizable and flexible to meet your needs with adjustable rails and a variety of options to fit your pallet sizes and forklifts
  • Simple installation with hardware included
  • Cold storage
  • Food, beverage, and grocery distribution
  • Automotive and agricultural
  • Chemical
  • Pharmaceutical

How do I know if drive-in racking is right for me?

Drive-in racking is an excellent option for operations that use LIFO inventory management, need high-density storage, and have a low SKU count.

How many pallets can I store in a drive-in racking system?

Our drive-in racking systems can store up to 10 pallets deep.

Do I need a special forklift for a drive-in racking system?

Yes. While our drive-in racking can be customized to fit a variety of forklifts, you will need a special “drive-in” style overhead guard to fit into the racking.

What are the maintenance requirements for drive-in racking systems?

There are no maintenance or inspection frequency requirements for racking. But you’ll need to maintain your drive-in racking more the more often you use it. Overall, racking should be inspected anywhere from monthly to yearly.
