Drive in Rack
Drive in Rack
STALWART Drive-In Racking System is a high-density pallet storage system designed for storing large volumes of similar products. It operates on the LIFO principle (Last-In, First-Out), allowing forklifts to enter rack lanes for direct pallet placement without traditional aisles between bays.
- Forklift enters the racking lane to store and retrieve pallets.
- No horizontal beams between uprights — pallets rest on side-mounted support rails.
- Racks are deep, storing multiple pallets in line (4–10+ pallets deep).
- High-density storage — up to 85% space utilization.
Key Features
- Maximum Space Utilization: Eliminates multiple aisles, increasing pallet density per m².
- Deep Lane Storage: Store 4–10 pallets deep in a single lane.
- LIFO Storage Flow: Ideal for non-perishable, same-SKU, low-turnover items.
- Rigid Guide Rails: Heavy-duty pallet rails provide safe support and positioning.
- Forklift Entry Tolerance: Engineered with safe clearances and entry profiles.
- Customizable Heights and Depths: Configured as per pallet size and storage requirements.
- Heavy Load Capability: Designed for pallet loads up to 1500 kg.
