Utilize Every Inch Of Your Facility
Very Narrow Aisle
Very narrow aisle (VNA) systems are specialized pallet racking configurations that maximize storage density by reducing aisle width and utilizing guided forklifts or automated handling equipment to navigate aisles. VNA systems typically feature narrow aisle widths and tall rack heights, allowing forklifts to operate in tight spaces with precision and efficiency. VNA systems are suitable for warehouses and distribution centers with limited floor space, enabling them to maximize storage capacity while maintaining accessibility to stored inventory.

Reduce Wasted Space
VNA Pallet Racking allows you to use every inch of your space by reducing aisles to as little as 6′ instead of the standard 12′ aisles. This allows you to maximize your storage by reducing aisle space and utilizing the vertical height of your facility. Compacting the aisles increases the number of bays you can add to your facility thus increasing pallet positions by about 40%.
100% Accessibility
VNA Pallet Racking systems are single-deep storage systems that give you direct access to all pallets. This system is best utilized for companies with high stock rotation with a large number of SKUs. Other advantages of a VNA Pallet Racking system include:
- Minimize picking errors
- Increase storage height
- Flexible system adaptable to any type of good
Investment in Specialized Equipment
VNA racking systems provide the highest space efficiency and productivity by utilizing the right equipment. One important factor to keep in mind when considering a VNA system for your facility is that it requires specialized forklifts that fit within narrow aisles. These types of forklifts are more expensive than regular sit-down forklifts but the investment allows for the highest level of storage and productivity.
Forklift types for a VNA system:
- Turret Trucks
- Reach Forklifts
