Steel King Tubular Racks
|
Steel King Rack uses a fully welded tubular upright giving it more
resistance to impact than open-back style uprights.
Dozens of ready-to-order preconfigured racks to make buying easier. Also: beams, upright rack frames, and accessories such as wire decking and safety netting to make your rack safer and more functional.
|
Structural Rack
 |
Structural Pallet racks are used in high-traffic, extreme capacity applications. Constructed of structural channel
steel, these racks are withstand the wear and tear of the
toughest environments. Use structural instead of tubular types in areas
most likely to suffer from collisions, with very heavy loads, or
extremely high traffic. Also excellent for freezers and other harsh
environments. |
Mecalux Pallet Rack
 |
Mecalux Pallet Rack uses an open-back style bolt-together frame.
Although upright frames and beams can be ordered individually, we have
put together over 150 pre-configured rack sizes to make ordering as easy as
possible. Combine a Starter section with Adder sections to create rows of
pallet storage.

Mecalux Seismic Rack
 |
Seismic rack complies with building codes where required by law. Many
regions throughout the U.S. require that seismic rated rack be used for anything
over 8ft. tall. Mecalux seismic rack uses a welded-on footplate rather than the
bolted-on footplate that is used in the standard pallet rack. Also welded
onto the footplate is a bracing post that fits inside the base of the uprights. |
Drive-In Racks
 |
Drive-In Racks allow a lift truck to enter the rack from one side to
pick up or pull out pallets. This is done because pallets can slide
backwards on a continuous rail. Forklifts drive into the rack to access
pallets two or more deep. Drive-In racks are typically subject to more
abuse than selective racks due to the way they are utilized, so rack
integrity and strength are important factors. It is ideal rack for
cooler or freezer applications. |
Drive-Through Racks
 |
Drive-Through Racks allow a lift truck to enter the rack from either
side to pick up or pull out pallets. Loads are supported by rails
attached to upright frames, and lift trucks are driven between uprights
to reach pallets. This is done because pallets can slide backwards on a
continuous rail. It's open at both ends, allowing first-in, first-out
storage. |
Pallet Flow Racks
 |
Use gravity to flow pallets in super-high-density racks. The flow
system depth, height, and width are limited only by the size of your
facility and the capabilities of your material handling equipment. Flow
Storage solutions are used in situations where storage density and
inventory rotation are priorities. Systems are highly flexible with
standardized components, and can convey virtually any skid or pallet
type. |
Pushback Rack
 |
A push back pallet rack system fills the storage cube with product while it reduces the number of necessary aisles. A Pushback rack system lets you store pallets 2 to 5 deep while retaining easy access to a variety of different SKUs. It has higher selectivity than drive-in systems and better storage density than selective rack systems. |
Over-Dock Storage Racks
 |
Start using lost space in your warehouse by storing empty pallets
above your dock doors. Specially designed overdock racks allow you to
utilize previously unused space to store larger, lighter loads such as
empty pallets, cartons, packing materials, and more. Systems are
designed in either single-leg or ceiling-mounted configurations,
depending on your needs. An excellent space-utilization technique for
warehouses, distribution centers, and commercial facilities, or in any
loading dock area. |
Die Racks
 |
Forming dies are an vital to manufacturing processes from heavy
components to machine assembly, but dies are difficult to store and
handle due to their heavy weights and bulky dimensions, and lack of
stackability. Die racks provide the answer with high-capacity storage
for these ultra-heavy-duty loads. They allow you to safeyly store dies,
jigs, and other components in an assembly or production area. Racks are
bolt style and adjustable for optimum storage flexibility.
|
Pallet Rack Wire Decking
 |
Wire decking is a great add-on for your pallet rack. It is economical for new installations and for upgrading your current rack system. Decking made tough and durable, with wire construction and underlying metal supports. It offers easy visibility for rack content inspections, and it meets fire safety codes. |
SK2500 Bolted Racks
 |
Many applications require the extra strength and safety of a bolted
pallet rack connection. As an example, in drive-in, pushback, die
storage, coil storage, or flow rack installations, bolted connections
add security to the rack structure. For these installations, we
recommend bolt connection pallet rack. Tubular uprights can combine with
either tubular or structural beams in various applications. |
Pallet Rack Accessories
Rack Safety Netting
 |
Protect personnel from falling objects and preserve your inventory with pallet rack safety nets that "stop the drop" before it can occur. Order pickers and lift truck errors sometimes cause significant product damage or injuries. Eliminate it by preventing items from falling. |
Rack Security Cages
|
Rack enclosures don’t just secure your inventory…they make your facility safer by preventing spills. Wire mesh panels bolt directly to your rack uprights, creating a sturdy barrier between inventory and the ground below. Durable, all welded angle-frame design adds all the protection you need to eliminate dangerous spills, protecting employees while containing inventory.
|
Wire Mesh Rack Guards
|
Rack Back panels bolt directly to your pallet rack uprights and create a sturdy barrier between inventory and the ground below. The durable, all-welded angle-frame design provides the protection you need to prevent dangerous spills. It protects employees while containing inventory.
