Underneath that is usually aisles that eat more floor than the inventory justifies, and it gets worse every month the layout stays the same. Pushback rack stores two to six pallets deep per lane on nested carts, so one aisle face holds several pallets of the same SKU and the aisles you no longer need go back to storage. We work out the storage math for your Addison footprint first, then hand you a CAD layout and itemized quote before a single beam ships. Call (312) 815-2445 to get started. (312) 815-2445 ## Why Addison Warehouses Work With Us Addison is a market where hundreds of small and mid-size manufacturers in buildings that were often expanded in sections, so column lines and heights shift across one floor. Whether your building sits near the Army Trail Road parks or closer to Salt Creek, the column grid and usable height decide the pushback rack design, not a catalog drawing. As a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., we have designed storage for precision manufacturing and tool & die operators across Chicagoland since 1997. For pushback rack, the fit question is usually cart and rail assemblies matched to your pallet weight, and we answer it during a free warehouse consultation before you commit. Steel moves from our Westmont warehouse to Addison in about 15 minutes over I-355, I-290, and Lake Street. Our own installation crews build the system, and the same person who drew your layout answers the phone when a beam gets hit two years later.

Precision manufacturing Tool & die Plastics Wholesale distribution ## How Pushback Rack Works Two to six pallets deep from one aisle, without giving up much reach. 1 ### Loading from the aisle The driver sets the first pallet on the front cart. Each pallet added after that pushes the cart train deeper into the lane, so one aisle handles the whole depth. 2 ### Carts nested on rails Steel carts with nylon or steel wheels ride inclined rails, each nesting under the one ahead of it - that nesting is what makes multi-deep storage possible from a single face. 3 ### Retrieval by gravity Pull the front pallet and the next cart rolls forward on the incline to the pick face. No driving into the lane, no repositioning pallets by hand. 4 ### Last in, first out Each lane runs LIFO. That suits fast-turning product and any operation managing rotation by lane rather than by individual pallet date. ## What a Pushback Rack Project Includes Before pushback rack is priced for your Addison building, we gather the constraints: usable height, column grid, aisle widths your lifts need, SKU count, and the load mix your precision manufacturing volume actually moves. Most of that comes from one phone conversation. Our design team then builds a CAD layout showing pallet positions, level elevations, and aisle widths, with load ratings for each level noted on the drawing. The quote is itemized by component, so you see cost per position instead of a lump sum. Where it helps, we price a second option on the same floor plan, with lanes two to six pallets deep served from a single aisle, so the tradeoff is a number instead of an opinion. Common pushback rack parts move from our Westmont stock within days. Our crews install to the approved drawing, anchor every frame, and work around your shifts so tool & die production does not stop. Your layout stays on file, so adding a bay next year or replacing a damaged upright starts from where the system already is.
