Pushback Rack in Cranberry Township, PA

Separate reserve from active picking

Identify products shipped as full pallets and those replenishing case-pick locations. Keep frequent piece selection outside deep reserve lanes so operators do not repeatedly extract full loads just to retrieve a small quantity.

Test several lane depths

Model two- through six-deep arrangements against pallets per SKU, seasonal peaks, and inbound batch sizes. Compare occupied positions, not merely theoretical capacity, because a deep lane with only two pallets still consumes its full footprint.

Fit the building and truck

Measure columns, doors, clear working height, and forklift maneuvering needs. For Route 19 receiving operations, preserve an internal buffer for unloading and checking deliveries rather than assuming every arriving pallet moves directly into storage.

Sequence the installation

Experienced crews carry out installation under our scheduling and management. We coordinate delivery access, work zones, and handover stages with your operation, including tenant circulation where a flex property has shared movement areas.

Nested carts travel on inclined rails, allowing pallets to sit two to six positions deep. A newly loaded pallet pushes earlier loads farther into the lane. During retrieval, the next load rolls forward as the operator follows the specified unloading method.

This creates LIFO storage: the last pallet loaded leaves first. Pushback pallet rack therefore favors batches that do not require strict first-in, first-out rotation. Fewer access aisles can release floor area, but the benefit must be balanced against product access and lane occupancy.

Size beams and frames for the proposed loading arrangement, including maximum pallet weights, level elevations, and system geometry. Rails and carts need matching ratings. Before incorporating existing components, verify manufacturer compatibility, connections, dimensions, condition, and capacity documentation rather than relying on a visual match.
