Lightweight Pallet Racking

Shelving is generally used for hand-accessed items and smaller loads, while pallet racking is designed for palletized inventory handled with material-handling equipment. Lightweight Pallet Racking uses selective access so operators can reach each pallet directly from an aisle. The appropriate solution depends on inventory format, handling method, access requirements, and the facility’s layout.

Pallet rack dimensions are not one universal size. RackUSA configurations are custom-designed for each project based on load per level, warehouse clear height, forklift type, layout, and operating conditions. A technical evaluation can determine suitable frame and beam arrangements for the available space and required pallet access. Pricing and configuration details are available on request.

Selective racking is arranged so pallets can be accessed directly from the warehouse aisle, without requiring operators to move other pallets first. This supports facilities with multiple SKUs, high turnover, variable orders, and pallet-level traceability. RackUSA identifies direct pallet access as a key capability of its selective roll-formed racking system.

Yes. The system uses a boltless connection that allows level adjustment without specialised tools or extended downtime. Its lightweight, high-strength cold-rolled steel design also supports economical reconfiguration as storage requirements change. Final adjustments and layouts should follow the engineered project configuration, including the specified loads, clear height, forklift type, and facility conditions.

The racking can be considered for cold-storage rooms, but coatings and related specifications are evaluated on a project-by-project basis. RackUSA identifies specialised low-temperature coatings for these applications and provides project-based technical evaluation. The final design should account for warehouse conditions, required loads, access method, and other operational factors before installation.

RackUSA provides engineering services, installation services, technical support, and project-based technical evaluation for specialised applications. Delivery and installation are coordinated directly with the customer’s team, with installation requirements varying according to the number of bays, layout complexity, and warehouse conditions. RackUSA also offers safety audits, rack repair, relocation, teardown, and maintenance programs.
