Narrow Aisle Pallet Racking
Narrow Aisle Pallet Racking is designed to maximise the warehouse foot print with narrow aisles and racking serviced by Narrow Aisle Reach Trucks.
Maximise the Warehouse Foot Print
Narrow Aisle Pallet Racking is as the term suggests. This type of racking is designed to maximise the warehouse foot print with narrow aisles and racking serviced by Narrow Aisle Reach Trucks.
Using these types of machines not only can you reduce the aisles but can maintain high level pallet density, utilising the ‘cube’ effectively.
This type of racking is ideal for lower-throughput items and bulk reserve storage. It is best-suited for high-bay applications and minimises aisle width and increases net area utilisation.
You will save on potential future building costs to create extra storage in small areas, and it provides options for automated storage and retrieval systems (ASRS accesses stock in a narrow aisle pallet racking system, which can be designed to utilise the full height of the building).
Why Choose Narrow Aisle Colby’s Racking?
Narrow aisle trucks can operate freely in and out of the aisle in a narrow aisle pallet racking system, and bring all the benefits of selectivity without compromising storage density. Some turret trucks are designed to reach up to 30 metres, utilising the full height of the building and providing a very dense pallet storage solution. Narrow Aisle ColbyRACK systems include:
- Rack uprights in a range of widths, depths, and thicknesses
- A versatile range of beam sections, with three or four-tang welded connectors
- The unique diamond-slot profile which provides a stronger and more efficient interlock between upright and beam
- Strong frame bracing
- Racking end protection for safe operation
- Front and rear upright protectors to minimise damage
Can narrow aisle pallet racking be installed in existing warehouses?
Yes, narrow aisle racking can often be retrofitted into existing warehouses, provided there is enough ceiling height and the floor can support the system and specialized forklifts.
Is narrow aisle racking more expensive than standard racking?
While the initial investment may be higher due to specialized equipment, the increased storage density and efficiency often result in long-term cost savings.
Can I use standard pallets with narrow aisle racking?
Yes, standard pallets can be used, but it’s important to ensure they are in good condition for safe handling in narrow aisles.
How does narrow aisle racking impact warehouse lighting?
Because racks are taller and aisles are narrower, it’s important to have adequate lighting for safety and visibility. LED lighting is often recommended.
Are there options for fire protection in narrow aisle racking?
Yes, fire protection systems such as in-rack sprinklers can be integrated to meet safety regulations and protect your inventory.
