Engineer's Selection Guide

Which Racking System Fits Your Warehouse?

The right system is decided by SKU count, pallets per SKU, stock rotation and your truck fleet – not by catalogue price. Use this comparison as a starting point for your layout briefing.

German Compliance at a Glance

Built for German Safety Rules: DIN EN & DGUV Explained

German operators carry legal responsibility for rack safety. These are the four references every buyer should check before signing an order – and what we deliver for each.

DIN EN 15512

Structural Design

European design rules for adjustable pallet racking. Ask for a load calculation per project – we provide one, based on your actual configuration.

DIN EN 15620

Tolerances & Clearances

Defines installation tolerances, deformation limits and clearances between pallets and structure. Our layouts apply these from the first drawing.

DIN EN 15635 · DGUV 108-007

Operation & Annual Inspection

Racks must be inspected by a qualified person at least every 12 months. Load signs and as-built documentation from us simplify each inspection.

LBO · Fire Safety

Mezzanines & Permits

Depending on the federal state building code, mezzanines may need a permit. We supply structural calculations and drawings for your architect.

FAQ

Questions German Buyers Ask Before Ordering Racking

Straight answers on lead times, standards, inspections and planning – based on the questions our engineers hear most often from German warehouse operators.

Contact Our Engineers

Standard pallet racking and storage shelving are typically produced within 15–20 days. Your complete schedule to the site in Germany – including freight and installation – is confirmed in writing together with the approved layout drawings. Custom OEM/ODM projects and large mezzanines are scheduled from the final 3D design.

Our pallet racking is engineered according to European FEM design principles as implemented in DIN EN 15512, with installation tolerances referenced to DIN EN 15620. Production runs under an ISO 9001 quality management system. For export projects we also design to AS4084 and ANSI/RMI. Load calculations, load signs and assembly instructions are supplied with every project.

Yes. Under DGUV Regel 108-007 and DIN EN 15635, storage racks must be inspected by a qualified person (befähigte Person) at least every 12 months, in addition to regular visual checks by the operator. We provide the as-built documentation and load signs inspectors require.

Yes. Layouts are planned around EPAL Euro pallets (1200 × 800 mm) and industrial pallets (1200 × 1000 mm). A common German configuration is a 2700 mm beam carrying three Euro pallets or a 3600 mm beam carrying four – final dimensions depend on unit load and truck type.

Yes. Our certified engineers prepare a CAD layout and 3D model free of charge, typically within 24 hours of receiving your floor plan, pallet data and forklift specification – so you can compare storage capacity before committing.

It depends on the federal state building code (Landesbauordnung), the size and the intended use. Many mezzanines require a permit and fire safety review. We supply structural calculations and drawings to support your architect or permit application.

MOQs are flexible. We specialise in complete projects for logistics centres, but also supply smaller initial orders so you can verify quality before a full roll-out. Contact our team for product-specific MOQs.
