The Double Deep Pallet Racking is constructed to store 2 pallets deep or 4 pallets deep in double entry rack, used ideally when multiple pallet quantities of each product are stored.
A derivative to the selective pallet racking, the double deep system requires the use of a specialist reach truck or an attachment fitted to reach truck. Whilst achieving increases in capacity of up to 30% above the former, only 50% of the pallets are immediately accessible.
This system, however, provides an excellent method of increasing warehouse capacity or when alternative systems, such as the Drive-in Racking, which require high numbers of homogenous pallet types, are not possible.

The advantages of Double Deep Pallet Racking are:
- Increased storage density; and
- Highly spaced-efficient storage system.
The disadvantages of Double Deep Pallet Racking are:
- Requires specialised forklifts like the double reach trucks;
- Speed of access to all of the pallet positions is restricted;
- Loss of absolute FIFO; and
- Poor visibility for the truck drivers when accessing the rear locations.
