Call (801) 942-0493." lang: en --- Image: Drive-In Rack system inside a Utah warehouse (https://saltlakecitypalletrack.com/__l5e/assets-v1/715b881d-a125-49b5-bb0c-9608299bce65/reference-drive-in-hero.jpg) South Jordan, Utah # Drive-In Rack in South Jordan, UT Drive-in rack in South Jordan can hold many pallets of relatively few SKUs while using fewer access aisles than a comparable single-deep arrangement. That makes it worth evaluating for replenishment inventory, not automatically for every product stored in a growing warehouse. E-commerce fulfillment, healthcare distribution, and hardware operations often combine broad picking ranges with narrower bulk reserves. Treat those as separate storage problems. A large overall SKU count does not rule out deep lanes for selected products, but a high total pallet count alone does not establish that the inventory fits. (801) 942-0493 ## Drive-in rack selection starts with reserve behavior Build a pallet profile for the products proposed for deep storage. Record actual SKU volumes through normal replenishment cycles, seasonal peaks, and low-stock periods. Then test lane depth against those balances so the plan reflects useful occupancy rather than a position total reached only after a large delivery. With one entrance, storage follows LIFO handling: the most recently placed accessible pallet generally leaves first. Reserve assignments must accommodate that sequence. If healthcare batches, customer allocations, or date rules require independent selection, provide separate accessible storage or another arrangement instead of relying on operators to bypass blocked loads. Compare pushback when reserves contain more products with smaller quantities per SKU. It keeps the truck at the aisle and separates stock into independently accessed lanes, though each lane is still LIFO. Selective positions can handle exceptions while deeper storage serves the products with sustained pallet depth.

Healthcare distribution may emphasize batch access while hardware fulfillment separates common reserves from a wide pick range. Since 1997, supplying and installing warehouse equipment has been part of the work of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., the parent of our division. healthcare supply consumer goods building materials ## Drive-in pallet rack equipment and load checks 1 ### Truck travel The forklift drives on the floor inside the lane. Record chassis dimensions, turning approach, and the working space needed to enter, position a load, and reverse out. 2 ### Mast and loaded envelope Include mast profile, attachments, load backrest, and packaging overhang. Verify clearance during lifting and placement rather than checking only the unladen truck at the opening. 3 ### Rail bearing Pallets rest on supporting rails. Match bearing requirements to actual pallet dimensions, underside construction, condition, and loaded weight, including the placement allowances specified for the arrangement. 4 ### Entry-guide fit Guides help align the truck chassis with the lane. Size them for the equipment and approach without confusing their guidance role with the load-carrying role of pallet rails. ## Drive-thru racking for FIFO and cold-room reserves Opposite loading and unloading ends allow pallets to move through a lane in first-in, first-out order when operating procedures maintain that direction. That differs from a single-entrance reserve block. Compare both configurations using the access area required, lane occupancy, and the actual rotation demands of the assigned inventory. Cooler and freezer applications can benefit from reducing aisle space, but temperature does not change the need for suitable SKU depth. Confirm the truck's suitability for cold operation and review pallets, wrapping, and load stability in those conditions. Plan handling around what operators encounter inside the room. Show reserve lanes together with receiving, replenishment staging, and the active pick area. A compact block that interrupts those movements can shift the storage problem elsewhere. Compare the total arrangement, including how partly depleted lanes are reassigned and how incoming stock reaches its designated positions without unnecessary reshuffling.
