Free CAD layout: (410) 305-9766." lang: en --- Image: Pushback Rack system inside a Maryland warehouse (https://baltimorepalletracks.com/assets/pushback-hero-Dus20JX9.jpg) Halethorpe, Maryland # Pushback Rack in Halethorpe, Maryland Pushback rack in Halethorpe is a frequent fit for packaging and wholesale supply buildings off Southwestern Boulevard, where reserve pallets crowd the floor and the shell is older than the inventory plan. The system stores two to six pallets per lane on sloped rails and nested carts, all worked from a single aisle. (410) 305-9766 ## Start Pushback Rack Planning With the Inventory Before anyone talks lane depth, we look at how many pallets of each item you keep. Packaging distributors often hold deep runs of cartons, film and corrugated sheets, with a smaller list of specialty items. Those deep runs are the targets. Specialty items with one or two pallets stay in selective positions where every load is reachable. Rail-linked distributors around the I-95 / I-695 interchange receive railcar quantities that can fill several lanes at once. Plan pushback rack capacity for a full railcar, not just one truck, so a delivery does not spill into the aisles. A section of deeper pushback pallet rack lanes for those inbound items, with shallower lanes for the rest, usually keeps the floor clear between deliveries.

Some sit near the Relay and Patapsco industrial area with irregular column spacing. Depth is the lever there. We draw lanes between existing columns and show the position count against your current selective layout so the gain is plain. Southwestern Boulevard tenants often lease older space on short terms. Lanes bolt together from standard components, so the system can be taken down and reinstalled at the next address with a revised drawing. ## How a Pushback Pallet Rack Lane Operates The forklift sets a pallet on the front cart; that pushes stored loads toward the back. Take the front pallet and the one behind it rolls forward by gravity. No one drives into the rack. It is a last-in, first-out system. Rail-linked distributors moving dated goods should compare a pallet flow layout in Halethorpe (https://baltimorepalletracks.com/service-area/halethorpe/pallet-flow-rack). ## Frame and Beam Sizing Corrugated is light per pallet but tall; film and resin can be heavy. Frame selection reflects total lane weight and the gap between levels. Beam elevations leave room for the cart stack and lift clearance. If you already run teardrop uprights, pushback bays may tie into them. Photos of the frame face and beam connector let us check before the quote goes out. ## Light Pallets, Tall Loads and Pushback Rack Carts Corrugated and empty cartons are bulky but light. A pallet of sheets can stand tall and lean if it is not stretch-wrapped, which matters on a pushback rack because carts move under the load. We plan push back racking levels around the tallest stable pallet you actually ship, then leave lift-off room above. Light loads still need wrapped, square pallets so each cart rolls straight. For mixed buildings near Relay, a pushback pallet rack block for packaging plus selective rows for specialty items is the layout I recommend most often. The drawing shows both, with filled positions counted from your inventory list rather than empty bays. ## Selective, Pushback Rack or Drive-In for Halethorpe? Selective suits mostly single-pallet items. Pushback suits items held three to six deep. A Halethorpe drive-in layout (https://baltimorepalletracks.com/service-area/halethorpe/drive-in-rack) suits very deep runs of a few SKUs that leave in batches. We are a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., and that company has handled rack supply and installation since 1997.
