  1. A Warehouse's Secret Weapon: The Warehouse Rack and shelf Let’s get directly to the point and discuss roll out racks and shelves! They change your life. Not to be harsh, but if you're still keeping your stock in a traditional Warehouse Racking System, you're behind the times. Sure, horizontal beams are fixed in place, and support palletized loads. Racks may be one or more pallets deep, depending on the layout. Workers don't pick palletized loads by hand. Instead, a forklift driver loads and retrieves pallets for put away or order fulfillment. But roll-out racking systems differ from conventional warehouse racking systems in several important ways. Here are some Advantages of Roll-Out Racking and shelving system Access: Don't let your product get lost in rack after rack after rack. Let the product come to you! With roll-out racking and shelving, you can just pull out the racks and shelves, like drawers, and have your goods right in front of you. There's no need to remove items from the system or search through racks—just pull out what you need and get back to work. Roll-out racking and shelving works great with bulky items that are difficult to move and handle, like tires or auto parts. It's also perfect for inventory management, since it allows workers to identify products without removing the goods. Design: Let's get real for a second: nobody likes to do the same thing over and over again. And when it comes to your employee's health, there's a lot at stake.

  2. That's why we're here to help you make sure they're working in the best environment possible, with safe and efficient options that really set your warehouse up for success. First off, let's talk about safety. According to the National Safety Council, overexertion accounts for 31% of all workplace-related injuries. Repetitive tasks are one of the primary causes. When a warehouse employee has to repeatedly load items into a shelving unit by hand, leaning forward at the waist or crouching, there’s an increased risk of injury, even when handling relatively lightweight items. The roll-out design reduces this risk by providing full access to the pallet position or shelving surface. In addition to loading and retrieving items by hand, the roll-out functionality is compatible with various material handling equipment. For example, using overhead hoists and cranes allows workers to place heavy items on roll-out shelves quickly and efficiently. Capacity: If you’re interested in increasing the storage density of your racking and shelving systems, roll-out racks and shelves can save storage space by combining shelving and pallet racking into the same unit. This increased storage density allows you to reconfigure your warehouse layout to optimize your floor’s square footage, reduce the aisle space, and stock more inventory. Other benefits of roll-out pallet rack include: Increased selectivity The ability to store more products in a smaller footprint The ability to store longer items and bulky items When you're searching for the best types of shelving for your warehouse, you have several options to choose from. The best type of

Warehouse shelving and racking are high-density storage systems that allow you to maximize usable space. Tip: Pick a system that is most suitable for your warehouse's needs and works within your budget. Keep in mind that shelving offers various beneficial features, including adjustable shelves and easily installed wire decking. Your warehouse, your rules. You can do whatever you want. But if you want to keep your inventory organized, you're going to need some way to store it all. That's where shelving and racking come in. There are tons of options depending on your space, your needs, and the kind of inventory you'll be storing. You might need standard selective racking or pallet flow racking—or something totally different—it just depends on what works best for you!
