Features & Benefits
Our flared channel wire decks are engineered for strength, reliability, and universal compatibility — enhancing safety, efficiency, and OSHA compliance across your warehouse operations.
Universal Fit — Step & Box Beams
Flared channel ends fit both step beams and box beams — the most versatile wire decking profile. Ideal for mixed-rack facilities or upgrading from step to box beam systems without replacing decking.
Heavy-Duty Load Support
Up to 3,500 lbs UDL per section — high-strength welded wire mesh with 4–6 gauge wire distributes load evenly, preventing beam deflection and pallet collapse on any beam profile.
NFPA 13 Fire Safety
Open 2.5" × 4" mesh allows overhead sprinkler water to penetrate all rack levels — eliminating the need for costly in-rack sprinkler heads required with solid decking materials.
Enhanced Airflow & Visibility
Open mesh promotes air circulation and transmits light to lower rack levels — maintaining cleaner storage environments and reducing the need for supplemental rack lighting.
Tool-Free Drop-In Installation
No bolts, clips, or tools required — simply drop the deck onto the rack beams. Beam levels reconfigure in seconds on either step or box beam profiles without specialized labor.
Corrosion-Resistant Finishes
Galvanized finish for cold storage (to -20°F), high-humidity, and FDA/USDA environments. Powder-coated for standard warehouse use or custom color-coded rack organization.

Pro Tip: If your facility has both step-beam and box-beam racks — or you're planning to upgrade rack systems — flared channel decks are the most cost-effective single solution. One deck type fits all beam profiles. Contact Pallet Storage Solutions at 734-621-5052 to confirm compatibility with your existing rack systems.
Installation & Maintenance Tips
Simple steps for setup and upkeep to ensure your flared channel wire decks perform optimally and maintain OSHA compliance over time.
Installation
Drop the flared channel deck onto step or box beams — no tools or hardware required. Confirm channels seat fully on both beams before loading. OSHA requires a load capacity placard on every bay.
Annual Inspection
Inspect all sections annually for bent wires, damaged channels, broken welds, or corrosion. OSHA requires immediate removal from service of any damaged deck section — replace promptly.
Cleaning
Remove debris with compressed air. Use mild detergent for food storage, pharmaceutical, and hygiene-sensitive environments to maintain finish integrity and sanitary compliance.
Load Distribution
Distribute loads evenly across the full deck surface — never exceed the rated UDL capacity. For heavy point loads, ensure contact over a support channel rather than wire mesh only.
