Pushback Rack in Owings Mills, Maryland
Pushback rack in Owings Mills is usually a space question for business-to-business and consumer-products distributors along the I-795 corridor who have outgrown their selective layout but not their building.
Two to six pallets per lane, nested carts on inclined rails, one working aisle.
Measuring the Gain From Push Back Racking
The honest test is a side-by-side drawing. We lay out your current selective rows, then the same footprint with deep lanes for items held in multiples, and compare filled positions, not theoretical ones.
If the gain is small because most items are single pallets, we say so and keep you selective.
Regional service suppliers on the northwest side often keep replacement parts and supplies for field crews. Those items are re-ordered on a schedule and arrive in matching pallets, which fits a pushback rack well. Field crews loading vans early in the morning benefit from pick faces near the doors, with the pushback pallet rack reserve right behind them, so replenishment happens later in the day without blocking the morning rush.
Clear height in New Town flex buildings varies, so measure each bay you plan to use.


Owings Mills Buildings and Pushback Rack Heights
The northwest side mixes flex and light-industrial buildings near Owings Mills Boulevard and the New Town business area with larger distribution space toward I-695. Clear heights range widely.
Light manufacturing and regional service suppliers here often keep reserve stock of packaged goods that tolerates last-in, first-out handling well.
Reisterstown Road buildings also vary in dock height and door count. We note which doors serve inbound freight and which serve outbound, then orient the lanes so reserve sits on the inbound side and pick faces land closer to shipping.
Lane Operation for Pushback Pallet Rack
Pallets go onto the front cart and push stored loads back. When the front load is pulled, the next advances on the slope. Forklifts never enter lanes.
For rotation-sensitive goods, a pallet flow layout in Owings Mills feeds first in, first out instead.
Pushback Depth, Beam Levels and Existing Uprights
Depth follows pallets on hand per SKU. Consumer-products distributors near Reisterstown Road often find three deep covers most of their volume items.
Frames are sized from the heaviest pallet and the spacing between beam levels. Every elevation leaves space for the cart stack and lift-off.
Existing teardrop rack can often take pushback bays. Photos of the upright face and beam ends confirm compatibility.
A Phased Pushback Rack Plan for Growing Distributors
Many northwest-side distributors grow in steps. A pushback rack block can start with a few bays and extend down the row as reserve grows, as long as the first phase uses the same frame depth and beam profile you will add later.
We lay out the full future block on the drawing, quote only the first phase, and note what the next phase needs. Push back racking added later then matches the original lanes.
That approach keeps the pushback pallet rack consistent and avoids a mismatched row near Reisterstown Road that operators have to learn twice.
The Drive-In Alternative
A few very deep items that leave in planned order may suit an Owings Mills drive-in layout. It stores more per footprint, but every move happens inside the rack.
Ours is a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., where supplying plus installing rack has been its line of work since 1997. See the Owings Mills service area page or the pushback rack product page and call for a free layout.
