Compare six types with a free design consultation." lang: en --- Image: Industrial pallet racks and warehouse racking systems (https://sanfranciscopalletrack.com/assets/hero-warehouse-UDtk90RH.jpg) # Pallet Rack Systems for San Francisco Warehouses We supply and install every major type of warehouse racking: pallet rack for full access to each position, pushback and drive-in rack when you need depth, pallet flow for FIFO rotation, cantilever for long loads, and carton flow for case picking. Pick the system below that matches how your product moves, or call (415) 430-9104 and we will narrow it down with you in one conversation. (415) 430-9104 ## Our Warehouse Racking Products Six systems cover almost every storage problem we see in the San Francisco Bay Area. Most buildings end up using two of them together. ### Pallet Rack Also called selective pallet rack Every pallet reachable, every time. The baseline we size everything else against. See details https://sanfranciscopalletrack.com/products/pallet-rack ### Pushback Rack Also called push back pallet rack system Two to five pallets deep from one aisle, without giving up much reach. See details https://sanfranciscopalletrack.com/products/pushback-rack ### Pallet Flow Rack Also called flow through racking Load one side, pick the other, and let gravity enforce first in, first out. See details https://sanfranciscopalletrack.com/products/pallet-flow-rack ### Drive-In Rack Also called drive through pallet racking Fewer access aisles. Forklifts enter storage lanes to handle bulk pallets of the same SKU. See details https://sanfranciscopalletrack.com/products/drive-in-rack ### Cantilever Rack Also called cantilever warehouse racking Arms with nothing in front of them, built for lumber, pipe, and anything a pallet can't hold. See details https://sanfranciscopalletrack.com/products/cantilever-rack ### Carton Flow Rack Also called carton flow shelving Cases advance to the picker instead of the picker hunting for cases. See details https://sanfranciscopalletrack.com/products/carton-flow-rack ## Choosing Between Rack Types Four things decide the answer: how many SKUs you carry, how many pallets you hold of each one, how fast product turns, and how much height the building gives you. Many SKUs with a pallet or two each point to selective pallet rack. Several pallets of the same item favor pushback. Date-driven rotation calls for pallet flow. Large volumes of a few items in a tight footprint suit drive-in. Long material needs cantilever, and case picking needs carton flow.

pallet rack?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Almost always, yes. When someone asks for pallet racks with no other description, they mean selective: single-deep rows, an aisle on each side, direct access to every position. Pushback, drive-in, and pallet flow are higher-density alternatives you'd choose instead, not variations on the same system." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "How does push back racking compare to drive-in rack?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Both store deep from one face. With pushback the forklift stays in the aisle and gravity does the work, which is faster and gentler on the structure. Drive-in goes deeper and costs less per position, but the driver has to enter the lane to place and pull loads." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "How does pallet flow compare to pushback rack?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Flow gives you true FIFO but needs an aisle on both ends of the lane. Pushback runs LIFO and works from a single aisle. If rotation drives the operation, flow wins; if floor space is the binding constraint, pushback usually does." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What's the difference between drive-in and drive-through rack?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Drive-in is open at one end and runs LIFO - highest density. Drive-through is open at both ends and allows FIFO, at the cost of some positions and a second access aisle." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "How is cantilever rack different from pallet rack?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Pallet rack has a front beam and stores discrete, boxed loads. Cantilever has an open front, so long material loads from the side and slides in without clearing an obstruction - that's the entire reason the system exists." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "How is it different from static shelving?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "On static shelving, a picker reaches into the bay and someone has to physically face the product afterward. Carton flow feeds from behind and presents at the front, so rotation is automatic and the pick position never moves." } } ] } ] ```
