Running out of warehouse space is an absolute headache, but defaulting to standard selective racking could be costing you a fortune in wasted floor area. While having direct access to every single pallet sounds ideal, those wide forklift aisles often chew up the high-density storage your business desperately needs.

Finding the sweet spot between fast picking and maximum pallet capacity comes down to a crucial trade-off that many warehouse managers get completely backwards.

Running out of space? You don’t need a bigger warehouse — you need a smarter system.

Double Deep Pallet Racking is the perfect balance between selective racking and high-density storage — storing pallets two-deep to dramatically increase capacity while maintaining fast, efficient access.

So how does it work?
Instead of one pallet per position, you store two pallets deep per bay, accessed using a double-deep reach truck. Fewer aisles. More storage. Better use of every square metre.
________________________________________

WHEN IS DOUBLE DEEP THE RIGHT SOLUTION?
✔ Multiple pallets per SKU
✔ High-throughput operations
✔ Businesses outgrowing selective racking
✔ Warehouses needing more capacity without relocating
✔ Operations where LIFO or flexible rotation is acceptable
________________________________________

WHY BUSINESSES ARE SWITCHING TO DOUBLE DEEP
• Up to 30–40% more storage capacity in the same footprint
• Reduced aisle space = maximum cube utilisation
• Cost-effective alternative to expansion or relocation
• Maintains good access to stock without complex systems
________________________________________

WHY COLBY DOUBLE DEEP IS DIFFERENT
Not all racking is built the same.

✔ Engineered in Australia to exceed AS4084-2023 standards
✔ Manufactured from guaranteed traceable high-tensile steel

✔ Built for long-term durability in harsh Australian environments

Not all pallet racking is created equal—and in this industry, that matters more than most.

At A1 Precision, we back Colby Racking because it sets the benchmark for what a warehouse storage system should be.

Here’s the difference:
TRUE load ratings. NOT INFLATED numbers.
Every Colby system is engineered, tested, and certified to perform at its stated capacity—no guesswork, no shortcuts. What’s on paper is what you can safely load in real-world conditions.

AUSTRALIAN MADE. AUSTRALIAN STEEL.
Manufactured locally using high-quality Australian steel, Colby racking is built for our conditions—not retrofitted to suit them.

ENGINEERED FOR PERFORMANCE, NOT PATCHWORK FIXES
Unlike many imported systems that rely on excessive bracing, add-ons, and workarounds to meet compliance, Colby’s design philosophy is simple:
➡️ Fewer components
➡️ Smarter engineering
➡️ Greater inherent strength and durability

SEISMIC RATED & AS4084-2023 COMPLIANT
Colby systems are designed to meet the latest Australian Standards, including seismic requirements—critical for safety, longevity, and insurance compliance.

SYSTEM INTEGRITY ACROSS THE FULL LIFECYCLE
From initial install through to reconfiguration and expansion, Colby maintains structural integrity without the need for constant modification or reinforcement.
________________________________________

THE REALITY??
Many imported racking systems are built to a price—not a standard. Load ratings can be inconsistent, engineering is often generic, and performance under Australian conditions is an afterthought.

With Colby, you’re investing in a system that’s been purpose-built, proven, and trusted across Australia’s most demanding warehouse environments.

As an official Victorian distributor, A1 Precision delivers end-to-end Colby solutions—from design and engineering through to installation and compliance.

If you’re serious about safety, performance, and long-term value—there’s a clear choice.

Selective vs High Density Racking

Not all pallet racking is the same.

Some warehouses need high selectivity, others need maximum storage density.

Selective racking = easy access to every pallet.
High-density racking = maximum storage capacity.

The best solution is often a combination of both.

Our team designs storage systems tailored to your operation.
