It offers some of the densest storage by grouping pallets in lanes without an access aisle between every row. The best candidates hold many pallets of a few SKUs rather than a little of everything. For auto aftermarket distribution, distinguish replenishment stock from the assortment that feeds daily orders. Deep reserve lanes can serve repeat lines, while individually accessed locations handle slower products and mixed requirements. Keeping these functions separate avoids using a dense block for inventory that needs constant selective access. Operating as a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., we have been supplying and installing since 1997. We look at the pallet, lift truck and inventory pattern together, then discuss the building space needed to make the storage usable through a normal receiving and shipping cycle. (918) 296-8162 ## Put drive-in rack behind the picking operation Reserve storage earns its space when lanes stay reasonably full and replenish predictable demand. Review the number of pallets normally held for each product and how much stock remains before the next receipt. Very deep lanes can leave inaccessible empty capacity when quantities shrink. When individual pallet selection is essential, selective rack gives more direct access. Pushback is worth reviewing for deeper storage that keeps forklifts outside the lane structure. Choose between these approaches based on handling frequency, pallet consistency and rotation rather than maximum positions alone. Cold storage uses the same density principle: replace some aisle volume with pallet locations to make better use of cooler or freezer cube. Confirm equipment and pallet suitability for the temperature. The need for dated rotation may matter more than the available depth.

I-44 / Turner Turnpike access belongs in delivery planning, with unloading arranged so installation materials do not obstruct active warehouse movements. Glass and packaging supply Manufacturing material Regional freight stock ## Drive-in pallet rack specifications that matter Pallet dimensions are only a starting point. Record load overhang, loaded height, maximum weight and underside bearing surfaces. Rails must support the actual pallet construction, while guide sizing must leave a workable path for both the load and the truck. Mast height, truck width and turning clearance determine lane dimensions. Evaluate the approach from the working aisle and the clearance at placement height. Check every truck intended for the system; two machines serving the same warehouse may not share the same operating envelope. Include guide rails, column guards and rail-end protection in the layout from the beginning. Entry points see repeated truck movements, so exposed components deserve deliberate protection. Guards also occupy space and cannot be treated as invisible when calculating clearances. Plan assembly around active order handling and a defined component staging area. Summer heat in non-air-conditioned space can affect daily installation sequencing. Severe-weather periods and winter ice may shift deliveries, so agree how the site will handle changes before the first shipment is arranged.

Operators work progressively along the lane depth, making product assignments and retrieval sequence central to everyday use. 1 ### Loading from one face A single open end means LIFO operation: the last pallet stored leaves first. Use that layout for stock that can accept this withdrawal pattern. 2 ### Working through the block Drive-thru racking has openings at both ends and can support FIFO when loading and unloading use opposite faces. Allow aisle space on both sides. 3 ### Choosing practical depth Group lanes by the inventory that can share a retrieval sequence. Depth should follow normal pallets per SKU and lot, not merely the length of an available wall. 4 ### Leaving room to maneuver Confirm the loaded truck can turn into the opening and travel to the rear position. Guides assist alignment, but they cannot compensate for inadequate operating clearance. ## Recent Installations Racking projects completed for warehouses across the Tulsa metro and northeastern Oklahoma.
