How wide should our forklift aisles be in McDonough?

Aisle width must match your forklift's specified loaded turning requirements and the load being handled. We check the exact truck, pallet overhang, approach movements and traffic pattern before dimensioning the aisles. Both the loading and retrieval sides need their own working access.

Can you handle design, supply and installation?

Yes. We coordinate design, supply and installation by experienced installation crews we schedule and manage. The work follows the agreed layout and load requirements, with rack anchored to the floor, aligned and capacity information provided at handover. Work zones and access are agreed with your warehouse team before installation starts.

Which rack system fits our inventory?

Carton flow suits case and each picking with replenishment from behind the pick face. Whole pallets need separate reserve positions, either nearby or above the lanes when the complete supporting configuration allows it.

Can new bays match the rack we already have?

Yes, new additions can be planned after we identify the installed system and check connection details, dimensions and configuration capacity. Similar-looking connectors do not establish compatibility across manufacturers. Flow beds and reserve loads must be checked against the complete supporting bay.

How do you calculate usable pallet positions?

The usable count comes from a CAD layout of your actual building, not a percentage estimate. We combine pallet heights, clear height, forklift reach and the column grid, then reserve the aisles, receiving space and picking access your operation needs. Carton pick lanes and reserve pallet positions are counted separately.

McDonough, Georgia

Carton Flow Rack in McDonough, GA

McDonough distribution warehouses near Jonesboro Road and the I-75 interchange can have plenty of height and still run out of usable positions during a retail surge. Trailer arrivals, promotional stock and outbound order building hit the floor together. Rack depth needs to match the inventory profile so a seasonal peak does not leave dispatch fighting blocked staging lanes. When pickers reach into static shelves and replenishment repeatedly crosses the order path, the active face becomes the bottleneck. Carton flow rack presents the next case at the front while replenishment loads from the rear. Its purpose is case and each picking, not storing full pallets on carton tracks.

Carton Flow Rack in McDonough, GA starts with e-commerce case picks supported by overhead reserve. Case dimensions, bottom stiffness, weight and picks per SKU establish track style and lane allocation. We check access at both faces and where reserve pallets can sit without obstructing replenishment.

Why McDonough Warehouses Work With Us

The Jonesboro Road industrial area, Highway 20 interchange and nearby Locust Grove corridor support large distribution operations with demanding shipment windows. We plan a McDonough system around reserve quantities, active pick faces and how the team handles promotional peaks. Furniture pallets behave differently from case-picked e-commerce goods. A useful drawing shows those differences alongside dock staging, so added capacity does not consume the room needed to assemble the next outbound load.

For carton flow rack, the local operating question is e-commerce case picks supported by overhead reserve. Carton flow shelving is chosen around the daily pick list. Fast movers may need multiple lanes, while slow items may fit better on static shelf levels. We compare the active face, replenishment frequency and working reach so the arrangement supports your people instead of only increasing the lane count.

As a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., we give your McDonough team one contact for the drawing, scope and installation schedule. You can compare the proposed arrangement with your current process, ask for revisions and see what is included in the price. The consultation is free; the goal is a storage plan your warehouse can use, with component information available for later additions.

How Carton Flow Rack Works

Cases advance to the picker instead of the picker hunting for cases.

Inclined wheel beds

A full-width wheel bed or roller track sits on a slight incline inside a standard bay, so cases move forward under their own weight without power.

Pick from a fixed position

The picker always reaches for the same forward spot in the lane. Travel time drops, and so does the time spent searching for the next case.

Restock from behind

Replenishment loads the high end of the lane from a separate aisle, so restocking never blocks or slows the pick line, and rotation stays first in, first out automatically.

One lane per SKU

Lane dividers set the width for each case size, giving every SKU its own face - a width that can be resized as your product mix shifts.

What a Carton Flow Rack Project Includes

Carton Flow Rack work in McDonough begins with the operating needs of your building in the the Henry County distribution belt along I-75 and Jonesboro Road area. The design starts with case dimensions, minimum and maximum weights, carton condition and picks per SKU during a busy shift. We ask how often replenishment occurs and whether a separate rear aisle is available. Those inputs determine lane depth, track or wheel-bed style, dividers and how many faces each item should receive.

The CAD plan shows picking and replenishment sides, level elevations and any reserve pallets above the active area. Track widths and support requirements are checked against the selected rack bay. Your quote itemizes supporting frames and beams where needed, flow beds, lane guides, stops and accessories. We explain why the busiest items receive particular levels and where static storage remains the better choice.

Installation sets the supported beds, guides and incline to the approved design. Representative cartons are tested so soft bottoms, light cases and varied packaging are addressed before routine picking begins. Handover includes lane assignments, capacity information and replenishment guidance. When your SKU mix changes, lane widths and locations can be reviewed against the original support and load limits. The result is a defined pick face with a clear restocking path, not simply more shelves in the same congested aisle. Before the work is closed, we review the agreed scope with your warehouse manager, identify any outstanding items and explain the component information your team should retain for future changes.
