A-frame racks.

An A-frame rack carries upright what must not be laid flat: glass, mirrors, marble, large-format panels. Runner base, vertical uprights, cross-rails on the load side and braces: every part is calculated, not approximated.

A-frame rack, 20 parts, generated by the PalletLab engine

Single-sided A-frame.

A vertical back on a pallet base: the load rests against the cross-rails, and the braces take the tipping force. This is how rack manufacturers build them, reproduced part by part.

Double-sided A-frame.

Two slopes meeting under a ridge beam: you load from both sides and the weight balances either side. The format that pays for the linear metre of lorry when goods arrive in symmetrical batches.

Long frames, up to 6 metres.

For glazed bays and oversized panels, the frame gets longer and denser: the number of uprights follows the length, and the cross-rails follow the height of the back. A 6-metre frame takes six uprights, just like a workshop rack.
