XL pallet racking
Using minimal space for access aisles and lanes,
Link 51’s Drive-in racking provides a high-density and very
space-efficient bulk storage system.
With the first pallet into a lane being the last out,
stock selectivity is restricted, but when loads are delivered
and dispatched in batches, this is not a difficulty.
Guide Rails,
which also protect
the racking,
can be fitted to
ensure correct truck
positioning.
