Overview of Single Deep Racking

Single deep racking is the most common and cost-effective type of storage system, placing pallets one deep against an aisle. This configuration ensures that every product SKU is immediately accessible, making it the perfect choice for facilities with a wide variety of products (high SKU count) or those requiring FIFO (First-In, First-Out) inventory management. We design and install single selective systems built to your precise load and height specifications, maximizing vertical storage while maintaining effortless access.

What You Get in Single Selective Racks

Our single selective pallet rack solutions are provided as complete, engineered systems, ready for permitting and installation. We ensure all components meet the highest structural and safety standards

Upright Frames

Heavy-duty, welded frame assemblies designed to meet specific load and height requirements.

Load Beams

Horizontal steel beams that support the pallet loads, available in various lengths and capacities.

Row Spacers

Connectors used to join back-to-back rack rows, ensuring uniform spacing and structural stability.

Benefits of Single Selective Rack Systems

Choosing a selective rack system offers numerous operational advantages that directly impact efficiency, safety, and inventory management.

100% Selectivity

Direct access to every pallet in the system, eliminating the need to move other pallets for retrieval.

High Inventory Turnover

Ideal for FIFO (First-In, First-Out) rotation and managing a high volume of SKUs.

Accelerated Approval Timelines

By submitting precise, engineered packages and maintaining direct, established relationships with local jurisdictions, we drastically reduce the typical back-and-forth review period.

Seamless Integration with Design & Installation

When paired with our design and installation services, the permitting process is completely integrated, eliminating coordination gaps and ensuring the built system matches the approved plans exactly.

Cost-Effective and Versatile

The most economical storage system and easily adaptable to almost any product size and weight.

Design Flexibility

Easily configurable and reconfigurable to meet changing operational needs and warehouse dimensions.

Simplified Layout

Easy for forklift operators to navigate, contributing to faster cycle times and reduced product damage.

Related Racking Solutions

While the standard selective system is highly versatile, consider these related options if you need higher storage density or different flow characteristics.

Double Deep Racks

Store two pallets deep against the aisle to double capacity. Reduces accessibility but boosts density.

Drive-In / Drive-Thru Systems

Offers the highest density for uniform product. Forklifts drive directly into the system.

Flow Racks

Uses gravity to handle FIFO inventory automatically. Ideal for high-volume picking areas.

Cantilever Racks

For storing non-palletized, long items that do not fit standard selective racking beams.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are selective pallet racks suitable for cold storage or freezers?2025-12-15T10:02:34+00:00
Yes. Selective pallet racks are a popular choice for cold storage applications due to their high visibility and direct access. They can be manufactured with specialized steel and coatings designed to withstand extreme temperatures.
Can I use single selective racks with narrow aisle forklifts?2025-12-15T09:55:44+00:00
Yes. Selective racking can be configured to fit narrow aisle applications, but the aisle width must be precisely matched to your specialized narrow aisle forklifts for safe and efficient operation.
Does wire decking always need to be installed on selective racks?2025-12-15T09:54:46+00:00
While not always required for structural support of standard pallets, wire decking is often mandated by the Fire Marshal to comply with fire codes. It prevents objects from falling through and allows proper water penetration from overhead sprinklers.
Is selective racking considered FIFO or LIFO?2025-12-15T09:52:18+00:00
Selective racking is primarily a FIFO (First-In, First-Out) system because every pallet is directly accessible, allowing you to easily manage product age and rotation.
