Wickens design and manufacture a unique storage solution for heavier loads. Our heavy duty racking is the perfect storage solution for heavy or large items in a warehouse or manufacturing environment. Heavier weights (up to 20 tonnes), can be supported than with conventional pallet racking, meaning that heavy duty racks can maximise available floor space.

The design of our heavy duty racking makes it a particularly suitable storage solution for wide loads which cannot be stored on alternative racking systems due to the requirement for closer upright centres.

Our heavy duty rack product, finished in a range of standard colours or galvanised for external use, provides a safe and organised storage solution for heavy loads with easy, controlled pallet selection.

  • Fork spacers enabling flat base items to be stored and handled
