Double Deep Racking

Double Your Storage Space

Maximize your storage space without expanding your warehouse footprint. Double deep racking cuts aisle space and increases capacity by up to 65%, offering high-density storage and efficient handling for operations with multiple pallets per SKU. Pallets are stored 2 rows deep instead of 1, doubling pallet positions with only 2 aisles instead of 4. Our experts pairs deep-reach forklifts with double deep racking for safe, space-optimized performance.  

  • Maximize Your Floor Space
  • Increase Storage Density
  • Increase Floor Space by 60-65%
  • Cost-Effective and Efficient
  • Reduced Aisle-Widths
  • Faster Pallet Handling Times

LIFO/FILO Method

LIFO/FILO Method

Optimized for High-High-Turnover SKUs

Double deep racking paired with LIFO (Last-In, First-Out) or FILO (First-In, Last-Out) system, offers increased storage density and cost-effectiveness.

Bullet Points:

  • Ideal for identical/high-turnover products stored in multiple pallets per SKU
  • Deep reach trucks access pallets from the front
  • Provides direct access only to the first pallet position.
  • Optimized for operations with multiple pallets per product reference.

  • Better Space Use: Ideal for facilities with limited square footage.
  • Increased Capacity: Up to 65% more storage than single-deep racks.
Safer Storage

Safeguard Your Storage

Our experts ensure that double deep racking is a safe, high-density storage solution for heavy loads when properly designed, installed, and maintained according to manufacturer specifications and safety standards.

  • Load Limits Adherence – Stay within manufacturer-rated beam  & upright capacities.
  • Ensure Structural Integrity – Use high-strength steel construction for durability
  • Use Proper Equipment – Operate with deep reach trucks to load and extract pallets
  • Maintain Regularly – Conduct routine inspections and repairs to uphold safety
  • Stay Compliant – Follow OSHA and relevant warehouse safety regulations
Flue Space Optimization

Flue Space Optimization

Proper transverse and longitudinal flue spacing is essential for fire safety and sprinkler performance. Our layouts ensure code-compliant spacing, using tools like indicator bars and labels to maintain clearances and support NFPA requirements.

  • Transverse Spacing: Between pallets side-to-side
  • Longitudinal spacing: Between rack rows front-to-back
  • Supports NFPA and local fire codes
  • Enhances sprinkler coverage and emergency response
  • Reduces risk of blocked water distribution
