# Carton Flow Rack in Owings Mills, Maryland

Carton flow rack in Owings Mills usually comes up when a business-to-business distributor on the I-795 corridor realizes order pickers spend more time walking than picking.

Rollers pitched toward the aisle feed each case forward. Replenishment stays on the back side of the rack.

## Measuring the Walk Before Adding Carton Flow Racking

I start by asking where pickers go during a typical order. If the busy items are scattered across long aisles of shelving, carton flow racking pulls them into a few bays and shortens every trip.

If most orders are full pallets, flow is the wrong tool. The point is case and each picking.

Consumer-products teams near the New Town business area often ask how fast a carton flow rack pays off. That depends on how much walking it removes, which we estimate from your pick paths. A case flow rack line near packing usually shortens the walk the most, since every order ends there anyway.

We draw the current walk and the new one side by side.

## Consumer Products and Case Flow Rack Lanes

Consumer-products distributors near Owings Mills Boulevard pick cases of many sizes. Each lane is sized to its widest case, with dividers on both sides.

Stiff, flat-bottomed cartons run on wheel rails. Soft packs and shrink bundles need full roller beds. A case flow rack shelf should hold items of similar weight so pitch suits all of them.

One more planning note: if the building has a mezzanine or office above the pick area, check headroom before choosing shelf count. We measure from the floor to the lowest overhead item so the highest lane stays reachable.

## Regional Service Supply and Kitting

Regional service suppliers near Reisterstown Road build kits for field crews. A short flow unit with each part in its own lane lets one person assemble kits quickly while another restocks from behind.

Morning van loading goes faster when the kits are ready before crews arrive.

## Lane Counts and Golden-Zone Placement

Picks per SKU on your busiest days decide lanes. The fastest items go between waist and shoulder height, sometimes in two lanes. Slower items take the lowest or highest shelf.

Review assignments twice a year as the catalog shifts.

## Adding Carton Flow Rack to Existing Rack

The northwest side mixes flex buildings in the New Town business area with larger distribution space toward I-695. Many already have selective uprights, and flow shelves generally attach between those frames. Snap a picture of one upright and its beam connector for us.

Reserve that must rotate fits an Owings Mills pallet flow layout (https://baltimorepalletracks.com/service-area/owings-mills/pallet-flow-rack). Repeat pallets kept in depth suit pushback rack in Owings Mills (https://baltimorepalletracks.com/service-area/owings-mills/pushback-rack).

## Restocking and Lane Depth

Every restock trip costs labor. Deeper lanes hold more cases per SKU and cut trips, but use more floor behind the face.

For busy B2B items, we usually size a lane to last at least a shift. Slower items can use shallower lanes or move to static shelving.

Rear aisles need room for a pallet jack bringing reserve from the beams above or a nearby row.
