What are the obvious advantages of narrow aisle shelves?

The narrow aisle rack is a type of heavy-duty storage rack widely used in logistics warehouses and other places for storing goods. Its structure is similar to that of the common pallet rack, but it is significantly different from the pallet rack. What are the obvious advantages of the narrow aisle rack? Analysis by a high-quality warehouse rack factory.

There are two very obvious advantages. Firstly, the aisle for forklifts is narrow. The aisle for forklifts in common pallet racks needs to be at least 2.8-3 meters wide, while the narrow aisle system of a high-quality warehouse rack factory uses three-way forklifts for storage and retrieval, and compresses the aisle width to a minimum of 1.6-2 meters. The forklift aisle is significantly smaller than that of the pallet rack because of the narrow aisle, and thus it is called a narrow aisle rack.

Another obvious advantage is the high designable height. The total height of most heavy-duty racks for forklift storage is generally designed to be within 10 meters, because the lifting height of forklifts is usually within 10 meters. However, the total height of the narrow aisle racks of a high-quality warehouse rack factory can be designed to 15 meters, which can be comparable to the height of an automated vertical storage system. Therefore, narrow aisle racks have these two core advantages, and thus are widely used.
