Selective racking, or something denser?
Selective gives up some floor space to keep every pallet within reach. Watch how each system is loaded and pick the one that fits what you store.
Double-deep
Fewer products, more pallets of each.

Choose selective when
- You store many different products, a few pallets of each
- Pickers or drivers need any pallet without moving another
- Pallet sizes and weights vary from level to level
- Your layout or product mix may change later
Choose another system when
- You hold many pallets of the same product → Drive-in
- You want 2–6 pallets deep, still loaded from the aisle → Pushback
- Dated stock must leave first in, first out → Pallet flow

Dmytro and Lenokers went above and beyond my expectations. We were looking to liquidate a good amount of pallet racking from our warehouse and between our first contact and our warehouse being cleared of our racking, barely a week had passed! They were kind, courteous, and more than professional for the entire experience. I would not hesitate working with them again!

We had to move some inventory around very quickly to make room for a new customer and we ran out of rack space. I called Lenokers and they had exactly what we needed. Within 3 hours we had our racking and we're back to getting organized!
Thanks guys!
Kristin Bowen
It was a pleasure working with Dmytro and his team to improve our warehouse! Timely communications and service.

How is selective pallet racking priced?
By the parts list: frame height and depth, beam length and capacity, decking and the number of bays, plus freight and installation if you want it. New and used are priced side by side. Send your pallet size, weight and the positions you need, and we price the exact list.
How much weight can a selective pallet rack hold?
It depends on the beams, the frames and how they are spaced. As a guide, a 96″ × 4″ teardrop beam pair is rated at about 4,000–5,000 lb static, load spread evenly, and a 42″ 14-gauge frame at about 23,000 lb with beams 48″ apart. Your quote confirms the rating for your load.
What size pallet rack do I need?
For 48″ × 40″ pallets, the usual bay is a 42″-deep frame, so the pallet overhangs 3″ front and back, with 96″ beams holding two pallets side by side. Each level needs the load height plus about 4″–6″ to lift off. Send your pallet size and clear height and we size it.
Teardrop or structural: which do I need?
Teardrop racking is roll-formed: beams drop into the holes and lock, so levels move in minutes. Structural racking is hot-rolled steel with bolted beams, heavier and more tolerant of forklift hits, for heavy loads and hard-working aisles. We quote either, and tell you which fits.
Can you match racking we already have?
Usually, yes. Teardrop profiles from different makers don’t always fit each other, so send a photo of the upright, its holes and any label, with the frame depth and beam length. We match it, or tell you plainly if it won’t mix.
Do we need a permit and anchoring?
Often, yes: many cities ask for a permit for storage racking, and racks are anchored to the floor to the local seismic rules. We prepare the permit drawings and anchor every frame we install. See racking permits and rack anchoring.

About selective pallet racking
Selective pallet racking is the most common way to store pallets: rows of upright frames joined by pairs of beams, one pallet deep on each side of the aisle, so a forklift can reach every pallet without moving another. Lenokers supplies selective racking new and used, in teardrop and structural styles, shipped from points across the US, supply only or installed by our own crews, with layout, permits and anchoring when the project needs them.
Teardrop vs structural selective racking
Teardrop racking is roll-formed from coil steel. Its uprights are punched with teardrop-shaped holes about 2″ apart, and the beam ends carry hooks that drop into the holes and lock, so a level can be moved without tools. It is the lighter, lower-cost choice and covers most warehouses. Structural racking is made from hot-rolled channel with the beams bolted on. It carries heavier loads, stands up better to forklift contact and suits freezers, heavy products and drive-through aisles. Both are selective racking; the difference is how the steel is made and joined.
Single-deep and double-deep
Single-deep is selective racking in its plain form: one pallet deep per side, every pallet reachable. Double-deep puts two rows back to back on each side of the aisle and needs a deep-reach truck. You give up direct access to the rear pallet and gain floor space, because you need about half the aisles. If you need more depth than that, pushback and drive-in racking go further.
Standard pallet rack sizes
Most selective bays use 42″-deep frames and 96″ beams: a 48″ × 40″ pallet overhangs the frame 3″ front and back, and two pallets fit side by side with about 4″ of clearance around each. Frames come from 8′ to 24′ tall in standard sizes, beams from 48″ to 144″, and beam levels adjust every 2″. Back-to-back rows are tied with row spacers at a fixed gap. The height of each level is the load height plus room to lift the pallet off.
Capacity: always static, always confirmed
Pallet rack capacity is given per beam pair (per level) and per frame, as a static rating with the load spread evenly. A frame’s rating drops as the gap between beam levels grows, and seismic zones change the numbers again, which is why rack capacity is confirmed on every quote, posted on load signs, and engineered into the permit drawings where the city asks for them. Our layout design and permit services take care of both.
