# Pushback Rack in New Kensington, PA

For a New Kensington operation, several pallets of the same SKU are taking up separate aisle-facing positions while the receiving floor fills with overflow. The immediate need is to organize production materials beside an active Alle-Kiski manufacturing floor, not simply order more steel. Pushback rack groups those pallets in cart lanes loaded from one aisle. It adds depth without requiring the forklift to enter the structure, but each lane runs last in, first out. Before changing an advanced-manufacturing workspace, compare the work your team must keep doing with the storage or relocation space the project will consume.

We start with your New Kensington floor plan, load information, and access between PA-28 and PA-56. You get a Free Design Consultation, a proposed layout, and an itemized scope so the next decision is based on a drawing rather than an assumption. Call (412) 866-1406 to discuss the building and the date you need it working.

## Why New Kensington Warehouses Work With Us

New Kensington is an Alle-Kiski Valley manufacturing center beside the Allegheny River, connected to the wider region by PA-28 and PA-56. The New Kensington Advanced Manufacturing Park reflects the area’s continued industrial use. Storage needs can combine production material, maintenance parts, and outbound finished goods, so the first question is which loads need immediate access.

For pushback rack, those local details become practical design inputs. We review pallet construction, load overhang, cart ratings, lane depth, and whether LIFO fits the inventory alongside the space needed to organize production materials beside an active Alle-Kiski manufacturing floor. Operations handling advanced manufacturing and industrial parts may need different access patterns even within one New Kensington building. We show the tradeoffs on the plan and explain what you gain, what you give up, and which measurements still need confirmation.

As a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., we keep the conversation focused on your operation rather than a catalog maximum. Your New Kensington team can review the layout before material is ordered, ask for revisions, and get a written breakdown of the agreed scope. We coordinate access between PA-28 and PA-56 with your receiving contact and flag scheduling and access questions early. The goal is a storage plan you can use and a clear point of contact when a requirement changes.

## 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

A New Kensington pushback rack project starts with load dimensions and weights, inventory movement, equipment details, and usable building dimensions. Around PA-28, do not assume that a nearby building’s plan will fit yours: doors, columns, floor condition, and usable clear height must be checked for the actual address. We also establish work windows, unloading arrangements, and the areas your operators must continue to access.

The cart and rail assembly must match the pallet footprint and weight. We compare lane depths against the number of pallets actually held per SKU, not just the maximum available depth. The layout shows pick faces as well as total storage. Installation includes setting rails, verifying cart travel with representative loads, and recording the selected operating limits. Drivers need instruction in controlled loading and unloading rather than treating the lane like a static beam level. For New Kensington, we put these decisions into the same plan that shows receiving, travel, and outbound staging. Where an alternative system makes sense, we compare its access and capacity against the proposed pushback rack instead of claiming one design suits every load.

The itemized scope identifies material, handling, installation work, and the documentation required for the finished configuration. Our team handles the permit side for you. Before work begins at an advanced-manufacturing workspace, confirm responsibilities for unloading, protected work zones, and access between PA-28 and PA-56. At handover, your team receives the agreed layout and capacity information, with operating limits and any remaining work made clear.
