2-Way Pallet

Two Entry Pallet

A 2-way pallet, also known as a two-way entry pallet, is a type of pallet designed to be lifted and moved by forklifts or pallet jacks from two sides only. Unlike a 4-way pallet, which allows entry from all four sides, a 2-way pallet has openings or slots for forklift tines or pallet jack forks on only two opposite sides.

The design of a 2-way pallet typically features solid top and bottom decks with stringers or blocks running between them to provide structural support. The openings on the sides allow forklift tines or pallet jack forks to slide in and lift the pallet from underneath. This design is often preferred for applications where space is limited or where pallets need to be stored or transported in a specific orientation.

2-way pallets are commonly used in warehouse and logistics operations for stacking, storing, and transporting goods. They offer efficient handling and are compatible with most standard forklifts and pallet jacks. However, it’s important to note that their limited entry points may require careful consideration when planning loading and unloading procedures to ensure smooth and safe operations.
