PRACTICAL AND SAFE FENCE PANEL STORAGE SOLUTIONS
Maximise available space and keep fence panels secure and organised with Prodek storage systems.
Fence panel storage can be challenging due to the size, weight and varying dimensions of different panel types. Whether panels are kept in a warehouse, distribution facility or outdoor storage yard, the right racking system can make better use of available space while providing efficient access to stock.
At Prodek, we design and install bespoke racking and storage systems specifically for inventory type and available space. For fence panel storage, our range of industrial racking provides several options, including cantilever racking, pallet racking with D-shaped dividers, and vertical A-frame racking for upright storage.
Upon a professional assessment of your inventory, workflow requirements and available floor space, our team can develop a fence panel storage system designed and optimised around the way your business operates.
Prodek’s Fence Panel Storage Solutions
Cantilever Racking
Cantilever racking is well suited to storing long, bulky and heavy products where conventional racking is not sufficient. Its open-fronted design provides clear access to stored panels and makes greater use of available vertical space.
For fence panel storage, configurations can be designed around the dimensions and weight of the panels, with the supporting arms positioned to provide suitable levels of support. Cantilever racking can be installed as a single-sided system against a wall or as a double-sided system where access is required from both sides. The open design also provides clear access for forklift trucks, making cantilever racking a practical option for handling larger fence panel inventories on a daily basis.
- Suitable for long, bulky and heavy stock
- Suitable for forklift-operated storage
- Makes use of available vertical space
- Single or double-sided configurations available
- Adjustable arms to suit different storage requirements
- Suitable for indoor and outdoor applications
- Designed around the dimensions and weight of stock
Pallet Racking with D-Shaped Dividers
Pallet racking can be adapted to provide organised storage of fence panels and varied palletised goods. Incorporating D-shaped dividers allows individual panel types to be separated and stored in defined locations with SKUs and barcodes on bay ends, helping operators identify and retrieve stock efficiently.
This configuration is particularly beneficial for businesses that hold a large range of fence panel sizes or styles, while still maintaining robust structural support. Due to the structure of pallet racking, unused vertical space can be optimised and combined with specialised equipment based on configuration and accessibility requirements.
- Designed for manual or specialised equipment use
- D-shaped dividers help separate different panel types
- Provides organised, front-facing access to stock
- Can accommodate different panel sizes and product types
- Makes efficient use of available vertical space
- Can be configured around individual storage requirements
Vertical Racking
Vertical racking offers an excellent alternative where floor space is very limited, or fence panels need to be accessed quickly and manually. Also known as lean-to racks, the system uses an anchored base with adjustable D-shaped dividers or spigot arms to separate products and keep them in place, with a maximum load of 1,000kg per linear metre.
Panels can be stored upright and organised by size, style or panel type, making individual stock easier to identify and retrieve. Vertical racking is particularly useful for facilities where panels are regularly picked by hand and where using conventional storage takes up too much floor space.
Vertical racking systems can be installed as standalone storage or incorporated into a wider racking layout.
- Optimised use of limited floor space
- Front-facing access for hand picking
- Panels can be separated by type or size
- Adjustable D-shaped dividers or spigot arms
- Suitable for a range of long products
- Can be incorporated in wider storage layouts
- Available in a range of standard heights to suit various requirements
The Benefits of Fence Panel Storage by Prodek
Optimising Space
Fence panels can take up considerable floor space when stored directly on the ground. Prodek’s racking systems allow stock to be organised vertically or horizontally in dedicated storage areas, helping businesses make better use of their available footprint.
Better Stock Organisation
Organising panels by size, style or product type with the appropriate SKUs can help operators locate the right stock when needed. A racking system helps establish clear and structured storage areas.
Safer Storage
Keeping fence panels organised within a properly designed racking system can protect stock. Prodek considers the weight, dimensions and handling requirements of the products when designing a storage solution. The chosen configuration can also be designed around the equipment handling methods on site.
Flexible Options
There isn’t a singular racking system that suits all fence panel suppliers or distributors. Prodek can recommend a suitable configuration based on the products being stored, the available space and how stock is handled.
Bespoke Designs
Our professional team assesses the requirements of each individual site. We can review your available space, stock profile and business operations to design a system that works for you.
Compliance and Safety
Prodek designs racking that’s compliant and adheres to Safe Working Loads. Our qualified team can also carry out professional racking inspections and maintenance for workplace safety.

Got Questions? We have the answers!
What is the best way to store fence panels?
The most suitable storage method depends on the size and weight of the panels, the quantity of stock and how frequently they need to be accessed. Cantilever, vertical and pallet racking can all provide practical options depending on the product type and accessibility needs. Our team can help find the right storage system for your business.
Can fence panel storage be customised?
Yes, Prodek can design racking systems around the requirements of each application. Our team can take into account your panel dimensions, stock quantity, handling methods, available floor space and future storage needs when developing a suitable configuration.
Can fence panel racking be used outdoors?
Some Prodek racking systems are suitable for outdoor applications, depending on the finish. Galvanised steel ensures racking can be used in storage yards with resistance to moisture and rust. Prodek can assess these requirements as part of the design process.
How do I choose the right fence panel storage system?
The right solution depends on the type and quantity of panels being stored, how they are loaded and retrieved, and the amount of space available. Prodek can assess your requirements and recommend an appropriate racking system.
