Pallets load at the high end of a lane and travel down gravity rollers or wheel tracks, braked to a controlled pace, so the oldest pallet is always the one presented at the pick face. For Nashville warehouses along the I-24, I-40, and I-65 corridors, the right layout should connect incoming stock, reserve storage, and the way orders leave the building. Choose it when dates, lots, or shelf life aren't negotiable, or when a handful of high-turn SKUs eat a disproportionate share of your building. Lanes commonly run five to twenty pallets deep, so a few pick faces represent a large amount of stored product - which is also why it costs more per position than selective or pushback and needs two aisles instead of one. We lay out flow lanes around your throughput, pallet condition, and ceiling height, then price it position by position against the alternatives. (615) 703-6869 ## Why Nashville Warehouses Work With Us Date-coded food arriving through the regional freight network needs a clear path from receiving to the oldest available pallet. Around I-24 and I-40, that situation calls for a layout comparison tied to your own stock and building. First in, first out needs a physical path, not another instruction taped to the rack. Gravity lanes can present the oldest load at a separate pick face, provided the pallet construction and load range suit the rollers. We start with your drawings, inventory records, and photographs, so the conversation stays focused on the building and loads you actually have. Review date rules, pallet condition, and the number of active items before deciding lane depth. Separate the loading and picking aisles in the drawing. The comparison should show what you gain, what access you give up, and where staging remains available. Do not make every lane deeper simply to increase the position count. A shallow lane can be more useful when several dates or products need separate faces, and the replenishment route still needs room at the loading end. You work through the design and itemized scope with one contact at Nashville Pallet Racks, a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co. We explain component choices, confirm the proposed load ratings, and agree delivery and installation responsibilities before you order. If the product is not a fit, the alternative belongs in the discussion, not after the rack arrives. Call (615) 703-6869 to review the plan and any phasing needs. ## How Pallet Flow Rack Works 1 ### Load end Pallets enter at the high end of the lane. Each new pallet stages behind the one before it, so put-away is a single move made from the load-side aisle. 2 ### Gravity conveyor Full-width rollers or skate-wheel tracks, set on a pitch calculated for the pallet weight, carry loads forward under control rather than free rolling. 3 ### Braking and separation Brake rollers and pallet separators regulate travel and stop pallets from bunching, protecting both the product and the structure underneath it. 4 ### Pick end Pickers work a face of first-in pallets. Pull one and the next indexes forward automatically, so the pick aisle stays organized without anyone re-facing stock.

Pallet weight, deck condition, bottom-board orientation, and desired lane depth all drive the roller or wheel selection and the pitch calculation, so the first step is pinning down exactly what's moving through the lane. From there we set lane count and depth against your throughput. Fewer, deeper lanes maximize storage; more, shallower lanes give the pick face more SKU variety. Both versions get modeled with position counts so the tradeoff is visible before you buy, not realized after. The itemized quote covers frames, beams, rail and roller assemblies, brakes, entry and exit guides, and guarding. At installation the crew sets pitch, tests loaded travel in every lane, and tunes brakes before the system goes live. Afterward you have documented capacities, a lane map your team can hand to new hires, and a local contact for brake rollers and wheels as the system racks up cycles. For a Nashville project, the drawing also needs to show where incoming loads wait, how your team replenishes active stock, and which areas must remain accessible during installation. We agree the material staging and work zones with you before deliveries are scheduled. Compare the quoted capacity with your peak inventory, not just an average week; a layout that leaves no room for a seasonal receipt may put pallets back on the floor. You receive a component list and configuration-specific load ratings, with any reuse or replacement assumptions identified. Changes to loads, beam elevations, or handling equipment should be reviewed before the system is reconfigured. 1 Phone consultation 2 CAD layout 3 Itemized quote 4 Delivery & installation ## Recent Pallet Rack Projects A look at warehouse racking systems our team has installed.
