ATB Pallet Rack Systems: Options, Specs, and Brands

ATB Material Handling provides end‑to‑end pallet rack solutions for nearly any warehouse or storage environment. From onsite evaluation and layout design to material supply, seismic engineering, permitting, and turnkey installation, our team oversees every phase of your racking project.

Full Rack Component Supply

A safe, dependable rack system starts with components engineered to work together as a single, integrated structure. ATB supplies and installs all major rack elements along with critical safety accessories:

Uprights and beams: Vertical frames and horizontal load‑bearing members that create the primary rack framework.

Wire decks: Drop‑in steel decking to support split‑case picking, mixed SKUs, or pallets with uneven or non‑standard loads.

Row spacers: Connectors that tie back‑to‑back rows together, improving rigidity and helping maintain proper flue space.

Safety and impact protection: Column guards, post protectors, and end‑of‑aisle guardrails that help minimize forklift and equipment impact damage.

Seismic anchoring: Heavy‑duty anchors and engineered base plates designed to distribute impact and seismic forces and assist with compliance in high‑seismic regions such as California.

Rack Styles to Fit Your Operation
ATB offers multiple rack construction styles so you can match system performance to your budget, building conditions, and load profiles:

Roll‑formed pallet racking: The standard choice for most warehouses, featuring teardrop connections for quick reconfiguration and cost‑effective expansion. Compatible with traditional Tear‑Drop and New Style designs.

Structural steel racking: Manufactured from hot‑rolled structural channels, ideal for extra‑heavy loads, high‑cycle operations, and harsh or abusive environments.

Cantilever racking: An open‑front arm‑and‑column system designed for long, bulky, or irregular items—such as lumber, steel tubing, pipe, and furniture—that do not store well on conventional pallets.

Brand Compatibility and Integration
If you’re extending an existing system or need to match current rack layouts, ATB can integrate with and source components from many leading manufacturers, including:

Interlake (Mecalux)  

Nucor

Spacerack

Additional compatible brands are available on request, making it easier to mix, match, or replace components across a wide range of facilities.

Standard Sizes and Custom Engineering
ATB maintains a broad inventory of common rack sizes for rapid deployment while also offering engineered‑to‑order designs for complex building layouts or specialized load requirements. Typical component dimensions include:

Upright depths: 42 inch standard, with 36 inch, 44 inch, and 48 inch options to suit different pallet sizes and overhang preferences.

Upright heights: Common frame heights of 8 ft, 12 ft, 16 ft, 20 ft, and 24 ft, with custom‑engineered options for systems extending to 30 ft and higher.

Beam lengths (bay widths): 48 inch, 96 inch (standard 2‑pallet bay), 108 inch, 120 inch, and 144 inch for 3‑pallet bays and wider spans.

Wire deck sizes: 42 in x 46 in and 42 in x 52 in, configured to fit standard 42 in deep upright frames.

For facilities with non‑standard clear heights, unique footprint constraints, or specific load capacity requirements, ATB’s engineering team can develop custom rack configurations and dimensions tailored to your exact operating conditions.
