Racking for a Single Row

Getting a good estimate of how much racking you'll need for a single row is a great starting point when planning out your pallet rack layout. Keep in mind that you'll need to take special considerations for changing variables in size with different types of rack systems.

With any new installation, it can be a struggle to plan for optimal storage efficiency. If you need assistance with design and layout, East Coast Storage Equipment is here to help.

Aisle Size

When it comes time to put your new racking system to work, you’ll most likely utilize forklifts, pallet jacks and stock pickers to move in and out of racks and products. Ensuring you have enough space to safely maneuver heavy machinery is an essential part of the planning process. The calculator below will help you get a good idea of what aisle space requirements you’ll need:

For standard 48” pallets, 12’ to 13’ is usually all that’s needed. For narrow trucks, smaller aisle sizes of 8’ to 6’ may be appropriate. If you have any questions or concerns about estimating aisle size, make sure to reach out to our team for assistance.

Wire Decking Quantity

Once you have your racking run planned out, you’ll need to match your system with wire decking. Fortunately, determining how much decking you’ll require is a fairly simple process.
