RACKsteel provides engineered pallet racking systems designed to improve storage density, space utilization, and operational efficiency in warehouse and industrial environments. A proper racking system is critical to inventory control, material flow, safety compliance, and long-term scalability. Our products include a full range of high-density pallet racking solutions designed to accommodate varying load capacities, aisle requirements, and operational constraints.
Each racking system is selected and configured based on measurable factors, including load requirement, pallet weight, pallet type, SKU volume, forklift specifications, ceiling height, seismic requirements, and throughput demands. We offer solutions for both new and reconfigured facilities, as well as expansion or retrofit projects. All systems are compatible with industry-standard material handling equipment and applicable safety standards.
RACKsteel provides tailored storage and material handling solutions for a wide range of industries:
RACKsteel provides technical consultations to support racking selection, layout optimization, and system planning. Our team works directly with warehouse managers, engineers, and operations teams to identify the most effective high-density storage solution for each application. Project assessments, layout recommendations, and product specifications are available upon request.

Selective pallet racking is a standard storage system that provides direct access to each pallet while improving floor space utilization and SKU selectivity. This system supports a wide range of pallet sizes, load capacities, and operational requirements. Layout options such as back-to-back rows or Very Narrow Aisle (VNA) configurations can be used to reduce aisle width and increase overall storage density.
RACKsteel supplies selective racking through an established network of factory partners across Canada, the United States, and Asia. RACKsteel’s CWB-approved racking products are stocked to support faster project timelines and reduced lead times.
Our double-deep systems are readily available from our inventory program. Our sales consultants will outline the benefits of double-deep racking and the material handling equipment required to use it effectively. If you have multiple quantities of the same SKU, it’s worth exploring a double-deep option.
Drive-in racking is a high-density storage system that maximizes pallet storage by reducing aisle requirements. This system is well-suited for applications with high volumes of uniform SKUs and low product selectivity. Racking configurations are determined by load weight, forklift type, facility clear height, and pallet dimensions.
Drive-in racking operates on a last-in, first-out (LIFO) inventory method. It’s most effective for storing large quantities of the same product. When properly specified, this system provides high space utilization while maintaining structural integrity and operational efficiency in controlled storage environments.
Push-back racking is a high-density storage system designed to increase pallet capacity while reducing product handling and damage risk. All pallets are loaded and retrieved from the same aisle face. The system operates on a last-in, first-out (LIFO) inventory method and supports multiple SKU lanes within a single racking structure.
RACKsteel recommends push-back racking over drive-in racking systems in many applications due to improved seismic performance, reduced structural damage risk, enhanced operator safety, and easier, more efficient product retrieval. System depth and configuration are determined by pallet weight, load dimensions, and operational requirements, which may limit the maximum number of pallets per lane.
Cantilever racking systems are designed to store long, bulky, and irregularly shaped materials such as lumber, metal stock, raw materials, and similar loads. The open-front design allows for efficient loading and unloading of oversized products while supporting varying load capacities and arm configurations.
Standard cantilever racking is available as a quick-ship option to support accelerated project timelines. Custom cantilever systems require advanced planning to accommodate engineering, manufacturing, and lead-time requirements.
Carton flow is a gravity-fed storage system designed to support efficient hand picking, order fulfillment, and rapid packing and shipping operations. It is commonly used in standalone shelving applications or integrated into lower rack levels for manual case picking. The system is installed with a controlled slope, allowing cartons to flow forward to the pick face for consistent product access.
Consult with a RACKsteel sales representative to ensure proper system design, flow configuration, and load compatibility.
Pallet flow is a gravity-fed racking system designed for high-throughput environments requiring continuous loading and unloading. Pallets are loaded from the rear and flow forward to the pick face, supporting a first-in, first-out (FIFO) inventory method. This system is best suited for storing large volumes of the same SKU and can accommodate pallets of various sizes and weights.
RACKsteel offers multiple pallet flow configurations through its network of factory partners. Due to the system’s complexity and load considerations, consultation with a RACKsteel sales representative is recommended during the planning and specification process.
Structural steel pallet racking provides exceptional load capacity and long-term durability for demanding storage applications. RACKsteel’s factory partners across North America supply these robust systems. They are constructed with the highest quality and reliable performance.
This type of racking is well-suited for cold storage environments, high-density configurations, and ultra-heavy-duty loads. While higher in initial cost, structural racking often delivers a strong return on investment for applications requiring maximum strength and longevity.
Safety is a crucial priority across all applications. RACKsteel supplies all the necessary warehouse protection products to keep employees and equipment safe. RACKsteel manufactures products in-house and sources others for in-stock inventory. Back mesh panels, rack row end guard protectors, and racking post protectors are recommended components for safeguarding pallet racking systems and protecting the long-term integrity of the installation.
RACKsteel maintains a rotating inventory of used pallet racking suitable for a variety of applications. Our team can recommend used racking solutions when they meet your operational requirements.
We also offer services to buy, sell, or relocate existing racking to new facilities. Contact RACKsteel to review the current used-racking inventory, which is also available through our online shop.
