What are Some Appropriate Storage Solutions for
Your Warehouse
2
One of the most concerning thing for every
warehouse owner is the availability of space to
increase the storage potential of his warehouse.
3
While physically it might be impossible to change
the existing structure of the warehouse, but a
lot also depends upon the storing ways of the
goods in your warehouse.
4
There are also many different types of racking
systems available, which can help you in
increasing the storage potential of your
warehouse.
5
If you are looking for ways to increase the
availability of storage space in your warehouse,
here are some appropriate storage solutions for
your warehouse.
VNA pallet racking
Double deep pallet racking
Drive-in and drive-through pallet racking
Pushback pallet racking
Rf shuttle pallet racking
6
VNA pallet racking
7
VNA pallet racking or Very Narrow Aisle pallet
racking system is suitable for storage houses
that have very limited floor space.
8
In this type of setup, the racks are placed very
close to each other with minimum space between
them. However, in this type of pallet racking
system, the mobility of the forklifts is
restricted.
9
Usually, the forklifts have the complete freedom
to move and turn themselves in the aisle, but in
the case of VNA layout, it is not at all possible
as space is limited and the forklift is able to
move in one direction.
10
Double deep pallet racking
11
The double deep pallet racking is similar to
selective racking where racks storing pallets are
placed two rows deep, which leads to an increase
of about 80 of storage capacity.
12
If you are opting for this type of racking, then
you have to also get a specialized pallet
handling equipment like a specialized forklift or
a standard unit with double deep handling
attachment.
13
Double deep pallet racking is suitable for high
storage density warehouses.
14
Drive-in and drive-through pallet racking
15
The drive-through pallet racking system operates
on the principle of first in, first out and in
this type of system, the pallets are loaded from
one side of the rack and are taken out from the
other side.
16
Moreover, in this type of system, you will be
able to independently stack and retrieve the
items and the need of multiple aisles will also
diminish considerably.
17
The drive-in pallet racking system operates on
the principle of first in, last out. This system
is not meant for goods, which have a short shelf
life or a warehouse that has a quick inventory
turnaround.
18
Furthermore, in this type of racking system, the
risk of damage to the inventory is very high as
the forklift operators have to drive into the
system to get the goods.
19
This requires skilled forklift operators who will
follow the safety guidelines and report any
damage punctually.
20
Pushback pallet racking
21
The pushback pallet racking system allows the
pallets to be stored from 2 to 6 feet deep on
either side of the aisle, which provides you with
higher storage density than other forms of
racking.
22
Moreover, with pushback system, you can actually
have all the benefits of a drive-in system,
without having to drive in the equipment.
23
This is a great advantage as the risk associated
with the drive-in system is not present in the
pushback system.
24
Rf shuttle pallet racking
25
The Rf shuttle pallet racking is a form of pallet
racking, which has radio-controlled shuttles that
move on rails to deposit as well get back the
pallets.
26
The Rf shuttle pallet racking is suitable to be
used in warehouses which has dense bulk storage.
It follows the first in, last out pattern in its
operation.
27
Finally
28
From our above discussion, we can conclude that
using these type of racking system will boost the
efficiency of your warehouse by increasing the
availability of space.
29
Moreover, when you are actually starting your
warehouse business, it is best to install these
types of racking systems as it will save you from
the hassles of renovating it afterward.
