Pallet Racking Advantages

• Precision manufacturing process ensures uniform appearance.
• Uprights install quickly and easily to required height.
• Standard depths are 36", 42", 48". Other depths are available.
• All upright frames are reinforced with 1.5" wide closed-lip, and horizontal and diagonal bracing to resist
• damage in transit and from forklift abuse. 1.5" x 1.25" horizontal bracing is placed approximately 8" from the floor to help resist impact damage and allow ease in lagging foot place to the floor.

Selecting Your Beam

• Find the required clear width in the top column
