Specific Racking

Special racking systems for warehouses

In addition to pallet racking and medium-duty racking, some warehouses with unique product characteristics also use specially designed racking systems that differ from traditional ones. Below are 5 types of specialized warehouse racking systems tailored for specific purposes and for warehouses with unique products:

1. Mezzanine floors - One-Time investment, long-term benefits

Mezzanine floors is an industrial racking system designed with multiple levels (mezzanine-style) to increase storage height and capacity without expanding warehouse floor space. Its structure includes sturdy columns and interconnecting beams. Each mezzanine level can also include offices, staircases, or restrooms, maximizing cost savings while increasing storage capacity by 3 to 5 times.

Applications

This industrial racking is often combined with other racking types such as medium-duty racks and V-shaped steel shelves to store a variety of goods.

Advantages

Creates a Competitive Advantage

With the ability to increase storage capacity by up to 5 times compared to just using additional racking systems, mezzanine floors transforms unused overhead space into valuable storage areas, adding great value while warehouse rental costs continue to rise.

Boost Productivity, Not Just Storage

This system is not only for storage. With its versatile design, you can organize goods more intelligently, reduce search times, and improve operational efficiency.

Impressive load capacity

Made from premium materials, mezzanine racking supports a load capacity of up to 1000kg/m². Additionally, it can be moved or dismantled when needed. However, ensure to choose a reputable provider to guarantee safety and product quality.

Smart solution for compact spaces

By adding multiple levels for storage, you can also reorganize your warehouse system logically, avoiding wasted space and optimizing management.

Simple yet robust

With just a sturdy column frame, metal or wooden panels, and a few bolts, you have a durable and flexible storage system for all your needs.

Versatile in any situation

From elevated offices, temporary meeting rooms, to employee rest areas, mezzanine floors meets various requirements beyond just storage.

Disadvantages

High Initial investment cost

Compared to standard industrial racking, mezzanine floors incurs higher costs due to its robust structural framework and additional materials.

Extended construction time and High dismantling costs

Building mezzanine floors systems requires higher technical standards and takes longer than installing traditional racking . Dismantling and relocating also involve significant costs.

If frequent loading and unloading are required, mezzanine floors primarily offers high storage capacity, but the handling speed remains comparable to other warehouse racking systems.

Despite its drawbacks, mezzanine floors remains a worthy consideration for businesses looking to optimize space and enhance storage efficiency in the long term.

2. Cantilever racking - Storing long and bulky goods

Cantilever racking , also known as cantilever racks, features a specialized structure with arms to support long, bulky, and irregularly sized goods. This type of racking is commonly used in warehouses for wood, panels, materials like steel sheets, pipes, furniture, and automotive spare parts.

Advantages of Cantilever racking :

Convenient access to goods:

The open-front design makes loading and unloading goods more convenient.

High load capacity:

The robust arms support loads of up to 6000 kg, meeting the demands of both lightweight and heavy items.

Flexible design:

The spacing between arms can be adjusted or additional panels and supports can be added to meet specific storage needs.

Disadvantages of Cantilever racking :

Higher investment costs compared to other racking systems.

Requires aisle space between racking rows, limiting optimal space usage. However, this can be improved by integrating with mobile racking systems to maximize warehouse space efficiency.

3. Mobile racking - Secure Document Storage

Mobile racking system facilitates safe and convenient storage of documents, records, and medical equipment. Its fixed rail system allows the racking to open and close as needed, maximizing warehouse space utilization.

Advantages:

Smooth operation:

Simply turn the handle to move the racking effortlessly.

Maximized space utilization:

A compact system that only opens access aisles when necessary, saving up to 60% of space.

Durable and safe:

Made from high-quality powder-coated steel or galvanized material, combined with precise sliding rails for long-term stability.

Flexible and customizable:

Racking can be adjusted in height and spacing to accommodate various file sizes and small equipment.

Multi-Purpose applications

Ideal for storing office documents, hospital records, library books, and small materials.

Disadvantages

Higher costs compared to standard steel racking .

Requires technical expertise and precise installation for optimal performance.

4. Mold storage racks - Heavy-duty storage

Mold storage racks are constructed from thick, high-precision stainless steel. They are designed to store heavy molds commonly used in industries such as plastics, metal casting, precision mechanics, and automotive part manufacturing.

These racks provide a specialized solution to improve storage efficiency, reduce wasted space, and ensure absolute safety.

Advantages

Robust steel frame

Supports molds weighing between 500-2500kg per shelf, ensuring safety and long lifespan.

Adjustable racking

Each shelf's height can be customized to fit different molds.

Smooth sliding rails

Features smooth sliding rails for easy access, reducing manual effort and protecting molds from damage.

Optional crane integration

Supports the addition of cranes for easy lifting and lowering of heavy molds.

In addition to these features, mold racks excel at maximizing mold storage in compact spaces, protecting products, and ensuring quick and flexible access.

Usage notes

Higher initial costs and requires regular maintenance to ensure performance and safety in the warehouse.

5. Parts storage racking - Enhanced product storage capacity

Parts storage racking are designed to organize and store small items such as tools, parts, and components neatly and safely.

Key features of Parts storage racking 

• Easy Access: Open design allows quick retrieval by hand without needing pallets or forklifts.
• Adjustable Compartments: Customizable to fit a wide range of parts, from small to bulky items.
• Sturdy Construction: Made of powder-coated steel, ensuring strength and durability.
• Space-Saving: Easily reconfigurable and relocatable to adapt to changing needs.

Applications of Parts storage racking 

• Automotive Industry: Storing spare parts and components for vehicles.
• Manufacturing: Organizing machine parts and electronic components.
• Retail: Displaying small products in stores.
• Material Storage: Managing tools and repair equipment.
