Drive- Through

This method is used frequently in warehouses or facilities where there are a low number of product lines which also means that there will be a high storage density required by the user. In this method, the first pallet put in will be the last pallet out as there is only one operating aisle. Unless a Drive Through system is used, whereby pallets can be retrieved from either side of block.

In addtion to 'drive- through', if access is from the one end, ‘drive- in’ racking is used. With pallets to be supported only along each side, the racking has to be built with tight tolerances where it minimizes risks of trucks colliding with the racks.
