G-Rail is a simple, temporary method of adding a lightweight second deck to improve load fill and cube utilisation. It is particularly useful when carrying loose or irregular freight where safe stacking is impractical or inconsistent. By creating an adjustable upper level inside the body, operators can make better use of available height without committing to a permanent double-deck installation.
The system uses a series of vertical tracks mounted within the body, combined with horizontal load-supporting beams that slide up and down the tracks. Beams can be positioned at the required height to suit each load, allowing fast reconfiguration between different freight types. This flexibility makes the system suitable for mixed operations where load dimensions vary day to day.
Depending on the track centres and beam layout, pallets can often be supported directly without additional flooring panels. This keeps the system lightweight, quick to deploy and easy to remove when full-height loading is needed. When not in use, beams can be repositioned or stowed to maintain clear access to the full load space.
Because G-Rail is temporary and modular, it helps operators increase vehicle utilisation without permanently reducing internal height or adding unnecessary weight. It can also support safer loading practices by separating tiers and reducing the need to stack unstable or crush-sensitive goods. The result is more consistent load security and improved space efficiency across a wide range of distribution tasks.
G-Rail is suited to applications where operational flexibility is more important than a fixed double-deck structure, providing a practical balance between capacity, simplicity and day-to-day usability.
Frequently asked questions
What is the purpose of the G-Rail system?
It provides a temporary second deck inside the vehicle body to increase load fill and make better use of internal height, especially for loose or irregular loads.
How are the beams adjusted?
Horizontal beams slide within vertical tracks and can be positioned at the required height to suit each load, allowing quick reconfiguration between jobs.
Are additional floor panels required?
Not always. With suitable track centres, pallets can be supported directly by the beams without extra flooring, helping keep the system lightweight.
Is the system permanent?
No. G-Rail is designed to be temporary and modular, so beams can be repositioned or removed to return the body to full-height loading when required.
