Drive-Thru Racking System: High-Density FIFO Pallet Logistics

Standard pallet racks rely on rear vertical cross-bracing for horizontal stability. Because Drive-Thru channels require forklift transit through both ends, rear bracing is structurally impermissible. My Interack solves this challenge through three engineered countermeasures: (1) Rigid overhead top-tie portal beams that span across entire bay blocks; (2) Top horizontal plan bracing trusses; and (3) Heavy-duty reinforced baseplates anchored into the foundation slab to absorb dynamic turning and deceleration forces.

Drive-thru systems demand precise dimensional tolerance. Clearances between the widest part of the lift truck (including chassis or load) and the inner edge of the pallet support arms should typically be not less than 75 mm to 100 mm on each side. We strongly mandate continuous floor-anchored steel guide rails (or electronic wire guidance) running the full length of the channel to protect uprights and ensure repeatable alignment.

A reinforced concrete slab with minimal compressive strength of 25 to 35 MPa is required. Additionally, because forklifts operate with extended masts inside narrow rack tunnels, floor flatness (FF) and floor levelness (FL) numbers must meet strict international tolerances (such as DIN 18202 or ASTM E1155 standards) to eliminate mast sway, which could cause pallets to catch on cantilevered load rails.

Our 18000 Series Interservice protocol mandates visual shift checks by internal warehouse operators and thorough bi-annual or annual structural audits by My Interack certified rack safety engineers. We inspect anchor torque, out-of-plumb vertical upright deflection, cantilever arm fatigue, and guide rail anchoring, providing documented compliance certificates required for insurance and national safety authorities.

My Interack is an authentic Malaysian racking system manufacturer (SSM 202201004215 / 1449912-V) with direct production capacity in Shah Alam. We manage roll-forming, punching, welding, and finishing internally, while also partnering strategically with audited component specialists to handle comprehensive turnkey warehouse contracts.

Custom engineering design, structural calculations, and CAD layout approvals generally take 1 to 2 weeks. Production runs average 4 to 6 weeks depending on project tonnage. Regional transport across Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore takes 1 to 3 days, with export container shipping worldwide handled smoothly via Port Klang.

Yes. In addition to installations nationwide in Malaysia, our skilled rigging crews regularly execute turnkey installations in Singapore and oversee overseas projects through certified on-site engineering supervisors, ensuring systems are erected, leveled, anchored, and tested in accordance with strict engineering standards.

Every installation is handed over with official engineering load capacity certificates, prominently displayed aluminum load safety signage detailing maximum UDL per pallet and lane capacity, and formal warranty documentation tailored to project specifications and duty cycles.
