Pallet Flow Rack in West Jordan, UT
Pallet flow rack in West Jordan can move high-volume production inputs and dated fulfillment goods through inclined gravity roller lanes from a loading face to an opposite picking face. As front pallets leave, the remaining queue advances, supporting FIFO movement without requiring trucks to enter the storage structure. Evaluate sustained inventory before assigning a large reserve block.
Choose candidate SKUs by their sustained pallet inventory, withdrawal pattern, and rotation needs. Light manufacturing and e-commerce operations may share a building but need different reserve arrangements. Repeated consumables can fill dedicated lanes, while varied building products or short promotional runs may need more flexible access than a deep queue provides.
Pallet flow rack depth follows usable inventory
Compare typical pallet counts with the depth proposed for each SKU. Include quiet weeks, production pauses, and the stock remaining before the next delivery. Empty positions behind an assigned product cannot simply become open storage for unrelated inventory without restricting access, so theoretical capacity is not the same as useful occupancy.
Lane length also affects the space available for working aisles at both ends. In buildings with limited clear height, review the actual elevation available for each inclined lane and its loads. The loading end sits higher than the discharge end, which must be reflected in the vertical arrangement.
Keep receipt-order FIFO distinct from expiration-date selection. Date-sensitive goods should enter lanes according to the required release sequence, with SKU and lot information visible to the handling team. Any stock requiring immediate independent access belongs outside a queue that can only discharge from its front position.


West Jordan routes and reserve-space decisions
For operations around Jordan Landing industrial and Old Bingham Highway, building-products reserves may behave differently from e-commerce replenishment. Bangerter Highway and Mountain View Corridor help frame arrival and dispatch patterns, while the internal plan must preserve two working faces. A division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., our operation draws on supplying and installing experience extending back to 1997.
Gravity flow rack details to confirm before selection
Pallet bearing pattern
Measure underside members and identify runner direction for every accepted pallet construction. Roller placement must maintain suitable contact through the lane rather than bridging unsupported openings by assumption.
Serviceable load condition
Review broken boards, displaced runners, trailing wrap, and load stability at receiving. Exclude pallets that fall outside the accepted condition criteria before they become difficult to reach inside the queue.
Slope and load testing
Establish incline using the specified flow components and representative pallets. Test the intended weight range and travel behavior before treating the proposed lane length as a finished operating arrangement.
Brakes and speed controllers
Coordinate motion-control devices with load weights, roller layout, and discharge requirements. Include end restraint and any separator specified to manage the queued loads when the leading pallet is removed.
Pallet flow racking or pushback for production reserves
Pushback presents loading and retrieval at the same face and generally operates LIFO within its lanes. That arrangement may fit undated building materials or compatible production reserves. The two-face FIFO alternative is more relevant where repeated withdrawals must consume earlier receipts before newly replenished pallets.
The forklift places a load onto the rear roller entry and later retrieves a pallet from the opposing discharge face. It does not travel through the lane. Plan alignment and withdrawal room on both sides, including the loaded truck envelope rather than checking only the empty vehicle's turning dimensions.
Separate fast-moving pallet reserves from the case-picking work that serves smaller fulfillment orders. Carton flow can handle suitable cases downstream, while full-pallet lanes supply replenishment. Establish where a pallet becomes cases so partially picked loads do not accumulate in truck approaches or obstruct the next pallet at discharge.
