Gravity-fed roller lanes can bring each replacement case forward, provided the selected tracks suit the package base and the rear remains available for replenishment. Franklin Boulevard and Gastonia Technology Park serve building-materials, manufacturing, and regional distribution activity. Older industrial buildings along the I-85 and US 321 connection may impose a different arrangement from a newer bulk warehouse, making measured clearances and the existing picking routine central to the design. (704) 480-3833 ## Carton flow rack for constrained working space Begin with the distance between picking, packing, and replenishment rather than an assumed lane depth. An older building can benefit from compact forward positions, but a module that obstructs movement merely shifts the delay elsewhere. Preserve access to the rear before counting the proposed case capacity. Carton flow racking organizes cases and totes into divided roller channels. Lane width must leave workable side clearance without allowing packages to rotate across adjacent picks. Check the actual loaded carton, not just the supplier’s nominal footprint, and include worn working totes in the trials. FIFO relies on picking from the front and restocking from the back. It is particularly useful when successive cases should remain in receipt order, but the lane cannot decide which mixed-date batch deserves priority. Receiving instructions and visible SKU addresses remain part of the purchasing decision.

Reserve roller positions for repeat picks with suitable bases; irregular packs can remain in another storage format. A consistent address helps order-picking speed only when the product can be replenished predictably. Gastonia buyers work with a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., supplying and installing since 1997. Our new-material proposals state the flow beds, dividers, supporting components, and installation responsibilities, making it possible to compare complete picking arrangements rather than incomplete accessory lists. Use pallet flow when the handling unit is a whole pallet moving through gravity reserve lanes. Consider pushback where reserve pallets are stored and retrieved from the same aisle. Neither substitutes for the case-pick module, which should retain a clear transition from unopened reserve loads to accessible cartons.

Mark congestion and repeated walking so the proposed forward face addresses an observed problem rather than an assumed one. 2 ### Identify the supporting rack A retrofit into pallet rack bays depends on the rack family, connection fit, beam arrangement, and loading. Measure the available openings and record all existing levels that must remain in service. 3 ### Try the working packages Run full cases, open cartons, and filled totes on inclined rollers. Verify movement to the front stop and easy removal, with enough support beneath packages that might sag between tracks. 4 ### Arrange practical staging Installation uses experienced installation crews we schedule and manage. Agree where materials can be unloaded and where isolated work can progress while adjacent warehouse activity follows an approved access arrangement. ## Recent Installations Racking projects completed for warehouses across the Charlotte metro and nearby North and South Carolina communities.
