Should our best sellers go in flow lanes?

Usually, if they ship several pallets a week. Flow keeps the face full and rotates stock automatically.

How deep should lanes be near Moorland Road?

Deep enough to hold stock between supplier deliveries plus a buffer. Building depth sets the upper limit.

When is pushback a better choice?

When rotation does not matter and you want one aisle instead of two. Pushback is last-in, first-out and uses less floor.

Can I add on to existing rack?

Often. Brands differ in their teardrop holes, so a snapshot of your frame label and beam end lets us confirm a match.

Pallet flow rack in Brookfield helps wholesale distributors keep fast-moving stock rotating while freeing aisles for staging. Lanes slope gently on rollers, so a pallet loaded at the back drifts forward to the pick face by gravity.

Picking and putaway happen in different aisles, which keeps traffic calm. We are part of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., a supplier and installer since 1997.

Commercial supply companies off Capitol Drive often run a mix of heavy and light pallets on the same SKU list. We split them into separate lane groups so each gets the right pitch and speed control, rather than compromising on one setting that suits neither. That small decision prevents most of the stalls and hard stops I see in older flow systems.

Brookfield Wholesale Floors and Pallet Flow Rack

Warehouses off Moorland Road and Capitol Drive tend to be mid-size, with office frontage and limited storage depth. A compact block of flow lanes can replace several rows of selective rack for best sellers.

Commercial supply companies near I-94 often handle seasonal goods. Gravity flow rack keeps older seasonal stock moving out before new arrivals.

Light assembly tenants use flow lanes to feed benches, loading parts from the rear so assemblers keep working.

Seasonal items move in waves, so a lane that holds summer goods can switch to winter goods later. Planning for that changeover on the drawing avoids confusion on the floor.

Choosing Which SKUs Go in Pallet Flow Racking

Flow lanes cost more per position, so they should hold the right items.

List weekly movement

Pallets shipped per week show which items deserve lanes.

Check date needs

Anything with shelf life or seasonal timing leans toward flow.

Match depth to delivery

Lane holds stock between deliveries plus a buffer.

Place near shipping

Pick faces sit toward outbound docks to shorten trips.

Brookfield Gravity Flow Rack Projects

We start with a list of SKUs and weekly pallet movement. Only the busiest items justify flow lanes; the rest stay in selective or pushback.

Lane depth should match stock between deliveries. If a supplier ships weekly, the lane holds about a week's pallets plus a buffer.

Brakes and speed controllers are spaced by weight and lane length, and a separator at the face makes picking easy.

Phase by phase, experienced installation crews we schedule and manage work around receiving and leave everything anchored to the floor.

Pallet flow racking also changes labor. Drivers load from the back without waiting for pickers, and pickers never stop for a forklift. In a crowded Brookfield building that separation matters.

Capitol Drive buildings often have shallow storage zones, so lanes run three or four deep and stack four levels. That still adds plenty of positions for a few busy SKUs.

Lane pitch is the other quiet decision. Too flat and light pallets stop; too steep and heavy ones arrive hard. We tune it to your actual weight range.
