Pallet racks are normally composed of several individual pieces connected together to form an entire storage system.

Uprights: consist of a series of keyhole slots on the outside edges used to connect beams. Two upright frames are needed to construct one section of racking; however you can add on additional sections with just one upright frame. Weight capacities for upright frames are shown by how much the entire bay can hold.

Beams: are used to create levels to store pallets or other storage items. Beams are a tubular steel design featuring a notched out “step” that is used for accessory pieces like wire decking or cross bars. Weight capacities of beams are commonly expressed as a pair.

Wire Decking: can add to the function of your pallet racking, allowing you to use the levels for items other than palletized loads.

Rack Accessories: numerous accessories are available as well – row spacers, column protecters, pallet supports, and more
