Wire decks can be easily installed manually. They require little effort, they’ll simply drop into place and fit all beams.

Wire decking is commonly used as a safety measure on selective pallet rack to prevent pallets or the products stored on them from falling through the rack structure. Wire mesh construction also allows for easy identification of shelf contents and prevents dirt and other debris from accumulating on the shelves because of the holes in the mesh.
Most wire mesh decking has U-shaped channel supports, also known as struts, to support the load. With this waterfall decking, the wire mesh extends across the top and down the front of the beam to provide more support, and is more desirable in the marketplace.
Upturned waterfall decking can provide containment of a loose product to prevent the product from falling behind the rack system. Lay-in decking (Inside Waterfall Decking)(Flush Decking) rests inside the step of the beam, and wire mesh does not waterfall over the beam.
