Structural Pallet Racks & Racking

Structural pallet racks from Easy Rack are made of structural steel that is manufactured with reinforced channel corners and thicker steel columns. In the event of an accidental impact, it can far more resistant to damage than rolled steel. Structural pallet racks also feature a sturdier, bolted construction design and are welded together with AWS-certified criteria.

Three of our more popular types of structural pallet racks are the SelecDeck, the Drive-In/Drive-Through, and the Glide-In “Push Back” systems.

SelecDeck Case Flow Systems
Typical gravity case rack often can cause a number of problems on a warehouse floor. Tracks and wheels will fall off, and the entire operation has to temporarily shut down as crews scramble to conduct repairs. The SelecDeck Structural pallet rack prevents this sort of downtime with a superior case flow design that features a number of advantages over standard models.

The wheels on this design are much larger, wider, and stronger than they are on traditional models. The axles are also made differently. Steel shelf beams work to support to the entire module, making it more stable and rigid. Customized wheel beds offer a good deal more flexibility when slotting products, and the absence of slotting limitations makes it unnecessary to add more tracks during re-profiling.

Drive In / Drive Through Structural Pallet Rack.
Warehouses prefer this pallet rack design when they have to make use of every square inch of horizontal floor space and vertical cube space. Constructed entirely from structural steel, it features the innovative “Space-Saver Arm” design it provides the best in adjustability, durability, and safety required by heavy-duty Drive-In applications.

Glide-In “Push-Back”
This structural pallet rack offers the best features of the Drive-In rack combined with the selectivity of deep pallet racks. A system of wheeled carts that operate through gravity move pallets forward each time the pallet in the front is removed. Different cart designs can be special ordered based on height requirements and storage content.

Structural pallet racks offer some of the best benefits you can expect from any material storage product, including the following:

Long-Term Cost Savings
Longer product lifetime results from the damage-resistant nature of structural steel. This simplifies pallet rack designs, repair costs and replacements costs and generates ROI in the form of fewer services calls and purchase orders.

Damage resistance means less frequent downtime.
When it a rack is hit, even if it is damaged, it will still retain 90% of its load capacity. In most instances, your operation can continue as normal while the structural units are repaired.

Easy Rack Two-Year Warranty
In the event of worst case scenario product failure, our two-year warranty offers beam and upright replacement as covered per the terms of the warranty.

Easy Rack sells new and used structural pallet racks, uprights, and beams throughout the United States. Used rack can cost up to 40% less than new rack—a considerable savings when you consider the additional cost savings inherent to structural steel.

Heavy Duty Industrial Pallet Racks

Industrial used pallet racks allow you to support the largest containers and pieces of equipment. Unlike other types of racking systems, industrial used pallet racks have steel decks instead of wire decks. This is because they support the heaviest of materials and need to be able to support up to 48,000 pounds in weight safely.

Industrial used pallet racking are vital ingredients for recession-proofing your company. The most important benefit they bring to you is the exponential expansion of your existing warehouse space. This is especially advantageous if you are storing very heavy equipment storage. You may be using your warehouse floor to store the most bulky and heavy of items simply because the concrete provides the most reliable support. Industrial used pallet racks and pallet racking give you an equivalent and much more efficient alternative. Their heavy-duty steel decking provides a sturdy, elevated platform that is easy to access and safe for employees to work around. This will really improve your inventory control and your time to market as well. With faster access to materials stored on used industrial pallet racks, your workers can store and retrieve items much more quickly and efficiently. If they get in a hurry, donʼt worry. The structural steel components these racks are made from make them highly resistant to occasional forklift impacts, so you can count on the unit If things get really busy and crews get in a bit of a hurry, industrial used pallet racks are built to withstand an occasional bump from a forklift during a busy time.

You can find industrial pallet racks in all designs, including the most popular design, the boltless teardrop style. The boltless design offers two main advantages over bolted equivalents: ease of assembly and a more even distribution of weight. In spite of steel plating and structural steel supports, you can assemble your warehouse rack yourself by snapping the components together without clips, bolts, or tools. The finished product is much more stable and durable because it has no small components that can buckle or pop under the stress of heavy loads.

Even though industrial used pallet racks and racking are easy to assemble, we recommend you get help from a material handling specialist in designing the storage systemʼs specifications. Every new or used pallet storage rack system (and most used pallet racks as well) are custom designed storage units that are intended to fit the exact dimensions of a warehouse floor, vertical cube, industry type, and storage content. These factors play a very critical role in determining the strength of the components we will later use to build your rack, so be sure to share this information with the specialist that is designing your system.

Industrial pallet warehouse racks systems can also be made for outdoor use in inclement weather and cold climates. If you have a remote construction site or shipping yard with heavy duty storage needs, talk to a material handling specialist at Easy Rack and we will design a system specifically for that location.

Easy Rack carries a wide variety of used pallet racks, commercial shelving, material handling equipment, commercial lighting,and modular prefab buildings installed nationwide. If you can not find what you are looking for call us toll free at 1-888-776-3720 and we will find it for you.
