　　How much spacing should be left for customized shelf design?

　　The spacing between shelves is crucial in the design of storage shelves in any industry. This is related to whether the storage capacity of the warehouse can be greatly improved, and whether the management efficiency of goods entering and leaving the warehouse can be effectively improved.

　　Firstly, it is necessary to confirm the entrance and exit positions of the warehouse. The exit location is one of the main points that determine the overall layout and direction of the storage shelves, as well as the drainage or exit routes. Then it is necessary to understand the storage and retrieval methods of the goods, usually manual pickup or forklift equipment pickup. The recommended spacing for shelf placement in manually accessed warehouses is generally between 80-120 centimeters; Note that manual storage works without the assistance of any devices, so the reserved space does not need to be too wide.

　　2. Design of shelf spacing for forklift equipment to access goods. If a forklift is needed, the spacing between warehouse shelves should be at least 2 meters. A spacing of 2 meters is still estimated for small hydraulic forklifts. If it is a large enterprise with relatively large and heavy goods, a large forklift is generally needed. In this case, more space needs to be reserved for the forklift to have a suitable curvature for turning, and a spacious passage can also avoid unnecessary losses caused by forklift collisions with shelves.

　　3. The distance between the shelves and the warehouse walls is generally recommended to reserve 10-30 centimeters for easy access to the warehouse walls, which may cause moisture to the goods or pose safety hazards during forklift access.

　　Customized shelf planning is about designing the placement of shelves, which is not limited to shelf size and material, but the spacing between shelves is also an important factor that cannot be ignored.
