How it works
Drive-In or Double Access Systems consist of continuous lanes of racking with only a single load and retrieval aisle. Loading and unloading is undertaken by means of counter balance or reach trucks that drive down each lane into the racks.
First-In Last-Out Stock Rotation
Drive-In racking operates on the system of First-In Last-Out (FILO), therefore it only suits products that is stored in sufficient volume to require multiples lanes to ensure stock rotation.
Drive-In Pallet Racking Advantages
- Operates on the basis of First-In Last-Out (FILO)
- Store very large quantities of homogeneous products
- Good product protection
- 60% net pallet area usage of overall warehouse area
- Pallet redundancy can run as high as 30% if a wide range of different products are stored
