SPECIAL NOTES: FOB: Los Angeles and Chicago. Punched steel decking has a flush fit design that fits into standard 1-5/8″ step beams. You’ll need (4) – 24″ wide pieces on a 96″ beam level and (6) – 24″ wide pieces to fit on a 144″ beam level. In order to deck a 108″ beam level you will need a combination of (2) – 24″ wide and (2) 30″ wide pieces on a standard 108″ beam level. **All stock material is currently being built for a 1.75” top of beam. For a 1.625” top of beam, we recommend a ¼” deeper deck (16-18 week lead-time). We are able to store approximately 140 PCS one a pallet.
Fire safety regulations are becoming stricter, requiring businesses to replace solid wood and steel decking with fire-compliant alternatives. ProDeck50, a 50-percent open punched steel pallet rack decking, improves warehouse safety by allowing overhead fire suppression systems to function efficiently. Unlike plywood decking, which blocks water flow and can contribute to fires, ProDeck50’s open design allows rapid sprinkler penetration, helping to slow the fire.
ProDeck50 also eliminates maintenance issues commonly tied to plywood decking. Wood surfaces collect dust and debris, requiring frequent cleaning and posing cleanliness concerns. Over time, plywood can warp, splinter, or break, leading to costly replacements. ProDeck50’s steel construction provides a long-term solution that resists wear and eliminates the need for regular upkeep.
Visibility in the warehouse improves with ProDeck50, as its open design allows overhead lighting to reach lower levels. Solid plywood decking creates dark areas and shadows, making inventory management more difficult. With better lighting, workers can quickly locate products, reducing picking errors and increasing productivity.
Designed for durability, ProDeck50 strengthens pallet racking systems while ensuring ease of use. Its smooth surface protects stored items and aids in pallet movement. Compared to other solid or punched steel decking options, ProDeck50 is a cost-effective solution that improves both safety and efficiency without sacrificing strength.
Installation is straightforward with ProDeck50’s drop-in design, allowing for quick setup and minimal downtime. Its 50-percent open punched surface meets NFPA fire safety standards, making it compliant with fire marshal and insurance requirements. Upgrading to ProDeck50 not only improves fire safety but also enhances warehouse functionality, making it a practical choice for storage facilities.
