Storage racking systems are widely used for warehouse now, but do not blindly make a choice. Because there are many types of storage racking systems, the racks that are suitable for your own warehouse are the best. So what factors need to be considered when choosing a suitable storage racking? 

Warehouse Environment

Because the storage racking is basically used in the warehouse, the first factor to consider is the physical environment of the warehouse, including the area of the warehouse; the physical environment of the warehouse is ventilation, lighting, ground bearing, and fire protection; the direction in which the racks need to be placed needs to be the type, quantity, etc. of the goods to be placed.

Cargo Shape

Different goods require different types of racks. We need to consider factors such as the shape of the goods, the size (length* width* height) of each cargo space, the weight of each cargo position, and whether it is conducive to tidy stacking and other factors.

Access Method

How the goods are placed on the racks is also a consideration for choosing warehouse racks. A rack that is accessed by manual, it is necessary to consider whether the height is convenient for operators to access, and whether the weight of each unit of goods can be easily handled. Goods that are accessed through handling equipment need to consider: Whether the max. lifting height of the handling tool can be raised to the top height of the shelf, and whether the passage between the shelves is satisfied with the operation of the handling tool, etc. Some warehouse racks have some personalized requirements, such as cold storage racks; whether they need to be protected from light and other factors, they need to be specially treated and designed according to requirements. These factors must be considered when choosing the right storage rack.
