What Is Double Deep Pallet Racking?
An ideal storage system for a variety of warehouse settings, double deep racking stores two or four pallets deep between the aisles. This system uses the last in, first out (LIFO) method of stock rotation, meaning immediate access is only given to the front pallet, with the rear pallets able to be picked once the goods on the front are removed.
The double depth setup also means specialised, telescopic forklifts are required to store and retrieve stored goods. Double deep racking systems are very adjustable and can be reconfigured with ease by experts at D&R Racking, as well as adapted to various weights and volumes of goods.
Benefits of Double Deep Pallet Racking
Double deep warehouse racking is the perfect storage solution for a range of industries for several reasons.
Increased Storage
Greater Space Efficiency
Because you’ll be able to store more in the same amount of space, warehouses can operate with greater efficiency even in smaller premises, reducing the need to relocate for more space.
Efficient Control of Stock
Double depth pallet racking allows the same or similar items to be stored. This means warehouse workers can increase storage efficiency, reduce access times and keep track of stock more easily.
LIFO Stock Rotation
The last pallet loaded will be the first one to be retrieved, making double deep racking systems ideal storage for businesses with medium to long-term storage needs.
Double Deep Racking System Specs
Standard aisle widths are wider than narrow aisle setups, but slightly narrower than those used for wide aisle racking. Key safety features of double deep racking include pallet backstops to prevent loads from being pushed too far, beam locks to secure horizontal supports and rack protection barriers to safeguard against forklift damage.
D&R Racking installs double deep pallet racking with the appropriate specifications, all in line with UK regulations to ensure full compliance.

Who is double deep pallet racking best for?

What is double deep racking vs selective racking?
Double deep pallet racking is best for businesses with high volumes of the same or similar products and lower picking frequency. It suits operations prioritising storage density over selectivity, such as manufacturing, bulk storage and distribution centres with fast-moving, high-turnover stock in large quantities.
What are some of the best practices for efficiently managing inventory in a double deep warehouse racking system?
Keen organisation is the key to making the most of a double deep racking storage system. They operate on a last in, first out (LIFO) method, so keeping a record of what’s in the second pallet depth will ensure that similar or duplicate items are grouped, as well as ensure the right stock is picked first. You’ll also need an extended-reach lift truck to compensate for the increased depth. For those willing to implement the required storage management systems, double deep racking delivers vastly improved storage capacity, allowing you to do more with less space.
How does a double deep pallet racking system impact warehouse workflow and productivity?
By stacking your pallet racking double deep, you can drastically increase the storage capacity of your warehouse. This is thanks to the reduced need for access space, which is otherwise dead space most of the time. As long as effective stock management systems are implemented, double deep racking can significantly increase productivity.
