If you currently have standard selective rack but feel that double-deep selective racking would be more beneficial to you, then you’ll be happy to know that you are able to convert.
One thing to factor in when considering this conversion is that a standard forklift won’t work with a double-deep rack system. It won’t be able to reach the second pallet position. You’ll need a double-reach or deep reach lift truck to load and unload pallets from this system.
If that’s doable, then you’ll want to go to a storage system integrator, such as QIFEI Storage Systems. The storage system integrator can redo your layout to be double-deep. Moving forward with it will require unloading the products, dismantling the existing rack, reinstalling, and possibly adding on.
The majority of your existing selective pallet rack system will be utilized when converting to a double-deep racking system. This of course is dependent on the condition of your current rack.
In order to keep your company operating when converting the system, more than likely you’ll want to do it in phases.
