Overview
Push back rack systems are a smart way to store multiple pallets in deep lanes while keeping access simple and fast. This storage system uses carts that move along rails, allowing pallets to be loaded from the front and pushed back into the rack.
When a pallet is removed, the next one rolls forward automatically. This setup helps save floor space, improves loading and unloading, and increases storage density. This storeroom pushback racks system is ideal for storing multiple pallets of the same product while keeping everything easy to reach.
Push Back Rack System design details
Features and Benefits
Pushback pallet racking systems use a series of nested carts with stainless steel wheels that smoothly move pallets toward the picking aisle. This design allows forklift operators to load and unload from the front without entering the rack system, reducing the risk of damage and improving safety. Each picking position can hold multiple pallets, storing up to six deep, which increases storage density while maintaining selectivity.
The system supports LIFO (last in, first out)stock rotation, making it ideal for products that don’t require frequent turnover. Push back racks require minimal maintenance and can be engineered to fit special pallet sizes or containers. With the right pitch and setup, pallets flow forward at a safe, controlled speed using gravity, reducing handling and improving efficiency. This makes push back warehouse racking a reliable and cost-effective solution for high-density product storage.
