Pushback Rack in Tooele, UT

Pushback rack operation starts at the aisle

Connecting Tooele Valley transfers with usable storage

Across Tooele Valley, I-80 connections and activity around Lakeview Business Park in Grantsville can shape regional distribution plans. Inside a warehouse, transfer batches still need receiving and staging space before lane assignment. Manufacturing near Tooele Industrial Depot or along SR-36 may also require separate production buffers. Plan those working zones before extending storage rows. We serve this work as a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., with a supplying and installing history reaching back to 1997.

SKU-level depth

Actual pallets per SKU determine lane depth, not total building inventory. Review normal balances, replenishment quantities, and transfer batches separately so a large regional receipt does not create excessive depth for ordinary operating stock.

Pallet and cart fit

Inspect underside construction, dimensions, condition, load stability, and weight range. Industrial supply receipts may use different pallet designs, so the proposed carts need a defined acceptance range rather than a single convenient sample.

Beam and frame sizing

Establish beam and frame capacities from the maximum planned loads, lane configuration, rail supports, and level elevations. The complete loaded arrangement must be reviewed; a capacity associated with another storage setup is not sufficient.

Existing rack suitability

Review existing rack compatibility before including reused components. Identify the steel, examine its condition and connections, and verify dimensional and capacity information. Do not presume that available frames can accept the proposed cart assemblies.

Selective rack preserves individual access for short runs, mixed batches, and products with unpredictable demand. It can complement deeper lanes by absorbing the exceptions. Test both areas against expected product changes so the layout remains workable if industrial buyers order a wider assortment in smaller quantities.

Drive-in storage can suit a more concentrated reserve mix with many pallets of the same product. Because the forklift enters its lanes, truck and pallet clearances require a different examination. Compare that operating method with aisle-side handling before assuming either arrangement is preferable solely on position count.

FIFO pallet flow provides separate loading and retrieval faces for inventory that must leave in receipt order. Allow access at both ends when comparing footprints. For manufacturing buffers with strict batch sequencing, maintaining the intended material release can outweigh the appeal of a smaller LIFO reserve block.

Map the working zones before filling the floor

Begin your pushback rack review with a building drawing, SKU quantities, pallet examples, truck details, and expected transfers between facilities. Mark where incoming loads and installation materials can wait. The resulting scope should explain depth choices, component reuse checks, and how reserve access connects with receiving and production activity. (801) 942-0493.
