Pallet Racking Systems

 Pallet Racking Systems & Warehouse Pallet Racks

 

Pallet racking systems store palletized inventory efficiently while supporting fast, reliable forklift access. CustomMHS carries Husky pre-configured racking for standard warehouse depths, and MECO heavy-duty structural racking for the highest per-bay capacity in demanding industrial applications.

Product Lines Available:

Husky Pre-Configured Pallet Racking
♦ 36" Deep, Pre-Configured Units
♦ 42" Deep, Pre-Configured Units
♦ 48" Deep, Pre-Configured Units
♦ Components and Accessories (Husky)

MECO Heavy-Duty Structural Pallet Racking
♦ 3" Structural Channel Uprights, 34,800 lb per bay
♦ 4" Structural Channel Uprights, 54,200 lb per bay
♦ Structural Load Beams, up to 26,000 lb per pair
♦ Drop-in Cross Support Bars, 5,000 lb capacity
♦ Structural Upright Protector, fits 3" and 4" structural channel uprights

Selecting the Right Model:

♦ Depth, choose Husky pre-configured racking in 36", 42", or 48" depths based on standard pallet dimensions.
♦ Capacity, choose MECO structural racking when per-bay capacity needs to exceed standard duty pallet racking, up to 54,200 lb.
♦ Load support, add MECO Drop-in Cross Support Bars for mid-level support, or Structural Upright Protectors to guard against forklift impact.

Where Commonly Used:

♦ Warehouses and Distribution Centers, Husky pre-configured racking supports standard palletized storage.
♦ Heavy Industrial and Manufacturing Facilities, MECO structural racking handles the heaviest per-bay loads.
♦ High-Traffic Forklift Aisles, upright protectors guard against impact damage.
♦ Facility Expansions, component and accessory options build, expand, and protect existing rack systems.

CustomMHS carries the full line of Husky and MECO pallet racking systems, backed by each manufacturer's warranty.

 

 

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is a pallet racking system?

A pallet racking system stores palletized inventory in vertical bays that a forklift loads and retrieves directly, which puts inventory in the air instead of spread across the floor. Two approaches are available here: Husky pre-configured racking for standard warehouse depths, and MECO structural racking for the highest per-bay capacities. CustomMHS carries the full line of Husky and MECO pallet racking systems, backed by each manufacturer's warranty.

Which rack depth should I choose?

Depth follows your pallet dimensions, not the other way around. Husky pre-configured units come in 36", 42", and 48" depths, which cover standard pallet sizes without custom engineering. Measure the pallets you actually receive rather than assuming a standard, since a rack that leaves pallets overhanging the beams creates a stability problem, and one that is deeper than needed wastes aisle-adjacent floor space.

When do I need structural racking instead of standard duty?

Capacity is the deciding factor. MECO structural channel uprights carry 34,800 pounds per bay in the 3" size and 54,200 pounds per bay in the 4" size, well beyond what standard duty racking handles. If your loads are dense material such as castings, steel, or coiled stock, structural is the appropriate class. For typical palletized distribution inventory, pre-configured racking is the more economical fit.

What accessories should I plan for upfront?

Three are worth considering with the initial order. Drop-in cross support bars add mid-level support rated at 5,000 pounds for pallets that would otherwise deflect between beams. Structural upright protectors guard the columns from forklift impact, and adding them at installation costs far less than replacing a damaged upright later. MECO coil cradles handle coiled material up to 48 inches in diameter, which does not sit safely on standard beams.

How does pallet racking help your facility?

Vertical storage is the core gain, since racking converts unused overhead space into usable positions and raises storage density in the same square footage. Defined bay locations also make inventory findable and countable, so a forklift operator retrieves a specific pallet rather than digging through a floor stack. Matching capacity to the load matters just as much, because an underspecified rack loses capacity every time an upright takes a hit, and that degradation is gradual enough to go unnoticed. Adding upright protection in high-traffic aisles addresses that directly and avoids the unloading, downtime, and repair cost that follow a damaged bay.
