Successful Pallet Racking and Decking Project in South of England


We had the pleasure to work with a customer on a large project to supply pallet racking and a custom decking solution. This customer needed a bespoke system that would work for their unique business needs, and having worked with us previously asked us to work collaboratively with them to produce a unique timber decked solution.

Working with the customer was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Our team was involved in the design and implementation of the storage solution. We took the time to understand the customers specific needs and tailored the solution to optimise their storage space efficiently. The project was a success and the results exceeded ours and our customer’s expectations.

We look forward to working with them again the future.

A Guide To Pallet Rack Decking


Pallet racking systems keep warehouses organised, and they become even better with pallet racking decking. Pallet rack decking boosts storage capacity and ensures stability and safety for different items. In this guide, we’ll cover various decking types, their benefits, and how to choose the right one for your needs.

Understanding Pallet Racking Decking

Pallet racking decking serves as an added platform or shelf that slots into your pallet racking system’s beams. This additional level expands your storage options, enabling the safe storage of items that aren’t suitable for directly placing on pallets. This increases the versatility of your racking system, making it capable of accommodating a wider range of goods. There are various types of decking, each designed to accommodate different types of goods and provide specific advantages.

Types of Pallet Racking Decking

Chipboard Decking: chipboard decking provides a solid and even surface for storing goods. This decking type is well-suited for storing non-palletised items, cartons, and individual products. It’s cost-effective and easy to install but may not be suitable for very heavy loads or very deep bays as it can tend to sag over time if not supported properly.

Timber Decking: our timber decking is available in open or closed boarded designs, and is made from wooden boards. It fits neatly onto the horizontal beams of a pallet racking system, providing a strong, level surface for storing goods. Timber decking is a versatile and cost-effective option, and is available in various thicknesses.  It is a great option for storing heavy items.

Wire Mesh Decking: wire mesh decking is a popular choice for pallet racking systems. It consists of a grid of wire panels that provide excellent support and visibility. This type of decking is ideal for fire safety compliance, as it allows water to pass through in the event of a fire. It’s also suitable for storing pallets, cartons, and various other items. Extremely suitable if your warehouse deals with food or pharmaceutical products because of its hygiene benefits.

Solid Steel Decking: is commonly used for long span shelving but we can have manufactured panels for pallet racking too.  It is hard-wearing and easy to clean down making it suitable for storing medical and food grade items.

Benefits of Pallet Racking Decking

  • Enhanced Storage: decking provides additional storage space for non-palletised items, maximising your racking system’s capacity.
  • Improved Safety: decking creates a stable and even surface for storing items, reducing the risk of products falling or becoming damaged.
  • Versatility: different types of decking cater to various storage needs, allowing you to store a wide range of items.
  • Fire Compliance: wire mesh decking allows water to pass through in case of a fire, meeting fire safety regulations.

Choosing the Right Decking

To select the right pallet racking decking for your needs, consider the types of items you’ll be storing, your storage environment, and any safety and compliance requirements. If you’re unsure, contact our Sales Team today and we can help you choose the most suitable decking for your warehouse needs.

Industrial racking deliveries


Industrial racking deliveries

We have industrial racking orders being delivered across the UK every day, so whatever the size and quantity of the storage system you need we can get it to you quickly and for a low price. Most of our deliveries will arrive on a curtain sided articulated lorry, so you will need a forklift to unload, but if you have a small order or restricted access to your site we will always try to find a suitable and cost effective method for delivery.

Our lead time is usually about 7 working days, but if you need your warehouse racking sooner than this it’s always worth asking the question and we will do all we can to accommodate your requirements. Our used pallet racking frames (Dexion, Link 51, Apex, Redirack etc.) may need cutting and bracing to your specifications, but we have new pallet racking and longspan shelving in a variety of sizes which means that lead time for these is often as little as 2-3 working days.

Pallet racking accessories such as column guards, pallet support bars, wire mesh and timber decking, beam locks and fixing bolts are all kept in stock and so these can be dispatched quickly, with smaller items sent by courier.

We currently have part loads scheduled to leave us for York, Manchester, Coventry, North London and Bristol, so if you are close to these areas get in touch now and we will try to fit you in.

Call us now on 0800 612 3210 or use the enquiry form to send us a message and we will reply to you quickly.
