How it Works:
- Lift truck drives directly into the bay
- Pallets are held up by side rails rather than crossbeams
- Drive-in contains one end that’s closed off, while drive-through is open on both sides

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
PRODUCT FEATURES AND BENEFITS
PRODUCT FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Advantages:
- High storage density due to lack of aisles
- Virtually unlimited storage depth (Normally 6-8 pallets deep per bay)
- Cheaper alternative to Flow Rack
Disadvantages
- Racks are often abused by lift truck drivers
- Relatively low accessibility for pallets not on the outside of a rack
- Susceptible to “honeycombing,” which results in unused storage space and subsequent loss of storage capacity
APPLICATIONS
APPLICATIONS
Best for LIFO inventory management, high-volume and low SKU warehousing, and inventory with a long shelf life
