Multi-tier Pallet Racking
Multi-tier pallet racking provides walkways built directly into the racking structure, creating manual pick lanes across multiple levels. As a result, this type of warehouse racking system delivers better space utilisation than a traditional mezzanine floor. It’s ideal for storing cartons, boxes, and garments efficiently while also improving workflow and accessibility throughout the facility.
In addition, by combining wooden, mesh, or steel shelving, this tiered pallet racking system offers more picking levels and flexible storage options. Furthermore, multi-tier structures can be installed directly from the floor or built on top of a specially designed mezzanine structure. Consequently, this design creates a practical and multi-functional storage area beneath, making full use of every available height.
Benefits
- Utilises the full height of your building
- Optimises valuable floor space
- Enables order picking across multiple levels
- Combines pallet and small goods storage
- Removes the need for a separate mezzanine floor
Applications and Design
Multi-level pallet racking is perfect for warehouses handling both palletised and small-item storage. Moreover, it’s suitable for goods stored on wooden, metal, or mesh shelves — as well as clothing on hangers. In particular, fire sprinkler and lighting systems can also be easily incorporated into the design, ensuring greater safety and efficiency.
Additionally, our range of stairs, handrails, and pallet gates complements any multi-tier storage system, ensuring a safe and accessible layout for warehouse teams. Depending on the load requirements, these systems can include:
- Up to 6 walkway levels
- Total height of up to 19m
- Walkway heights of 2.775m
- Aisle widths from 800mm to 1800mm
Why Choose a Multi-tier System?
Therefore, choosing a high-rise pallet racking solution helps you maximise vertical storage and improve productivity without any major building alterations. Overall, it’s a cost-effective, long-term investment that grows with your business — ideal for busy warehouses needing to expand efficiently without moving premises.
