Pallet Rack vs. Drive-in Racking: Which One to Choose?

 

When planning a warehouse storage system, two popular options are Selective Pallet Racking and Drive-in Racking. Both are used for palletized goods, but they work in different ways and suit different needs.

Selective Pallet Racking

This is the most common and flexible racking system. It provides direct access to every pallet, making it ideal for warehouses with many SKUs and fast turnover.

Advantages:

  • 100% access to each pallet

  • Easy to adjust and expand

  • Suitable for FIFO operations

Drive-in Racking

Drive-in racking focuses on high-density storage. Forklifts drive into the rack lanes to load and unload pallets. It is perfect for storing large quantities of the same product.

Advantages:

  • Maximizes warehouse space

  • Fewer aisles, higher capacity

  • Uses LIFO operation

Main Differences

  
Item Pallet Rack Drive-in Racking
Access Direct access Lane-based access
Density Medium Very high
SKU Variety High Low
Operation FIFO LIFO  
 

 

Nanjing Shitong Racking Co., Ltd. recommend you choose pallet racking when you need fast picking and many SKUs, and choose drive-in Racking when your priority is maximum storage density for uniform products. If you need help, please feel free to contact us for support.
