Before investing in a drive-in pallet rack system, there are several things to consider.
First, you need to make sure that your product is compatible with the LIFO storage method and your application requires little to no order picking. Time-sensitive or perishable goods, and fragile product loads are not good candidates for this type of system. You also need to have pallets that are a consistent size and can support the load, and you will need operational discipline to avoid honeycombing.
Finally, you need to consider the cost of the system. Drive-in racks are more expensive than some other storage systems, so you need to make sure that the storage density benefits justify the cost.
