Cantilever Racking Components

Columns

Cantilever racking comes in single- or double-sided units. Single-sided units are ideal for wall placement, maximizing limited space, while double-sided units allow access from both sides, doubling storage capacity and fitting central warehouse areas.

Arms

Cantilever racking arms come in various lengths and styles—straight, inclined, and axle—to suit different storage needs. The bolted arms allow for easy conversion and repositioning, ensuring efficient front-loading and adaptability for changing inventory.

Bracing

Cantilever rack braces stabilize racks and prevent sway. Available in different designs, widths, and lengths (8 to 25 feet), they are essential for expanding, repairing, or building new racks, ensuring the system is customized and structurally sound.

Choosing the Right Cantilever Racking System

When selecting your cantilever racks, it’s important to consider several factors for the best fit for your facility.
Choose cantilever racks from RACKSteel
Key factors to consider:
  • Rack Type: Decide between single or double-sided racks based on space and accessibility needs.
  • Post Height: Choose the appropriate height for storing irregular items like lumber or pipes.
  • Post Spacing: Ensure proper center-to-center distance for secure storage.
  • Arm Length: Pick the right arm length for storing items like long pipes or shorter shelves.
  • Arm Quantity: Determine the number of arms needed per post to support your items.
  • Load Capacity: Calculate the maximum load per arm for safety and durability, especially with heavy-duty items.
  • Arm Style: Choose between straight or inclined arms based on the shape and stability of your products.
  • Environmental Factors: Consider factors like water exposure for outdoor storage and necessary supports.
  • End-of-Arm Stops: Decide if you need stops (or pins) to prevent product movement.
  • Rack Length: Measure the overall length to ensure front access and efficient space usage.

Robust Storage Options

Cantilever racking systems provide durable storage solutions for a variety of needs, including light-duty, medium-duty, and heavy-duty applications. Each option is customizable to ensure efficient space utilization and easy access, no matter the load.

Light-Duty

Ideal for lightweight products like small pipes, molding, and trim, light-duty racks are designed for smaller warehouses with limited space and minimal product variability.

Medium-Duty

Built for medium-weight items like hardware, appliances, and furniture, these racks balance capacity and accessibility. They are ideal for forklift retrieval and versatile storage requirements.

Heavy-Duty

Heavy-duty cantilever racks are built to handle large, bulky items such as steel bars, timber, and prefabricated products. Designed for use with lift trucks and cranes, they maximize storage capacity while supporting high-weight loads.

Maximize Operational Efficiency By Pairing with Forklifts

Boost your storage and handling efficiency by pairing cantilever racking with HUBTEX Multidirectional Forklifts. Their precise maneuverability makes loading and unloading long materials in tight spaces a breeze.

Testimonials

We had a great experience dealing with RACKsteel Material Handling recently. Our company required a new cantilever rack for our pipe storage needs recently, and dealing with Cheryl Schubert and the installation team at RACKsteel Material Handling was a terrific experience. Although there were some initial minor delays with the shipment of the racking, we were very pleased to receive pro-active updates and communication from Cheryl all throughout the process until the installation project was complete. I would recommend RACKsteel Material Handling as a supplier and will call them again in the future if we need additional racking at our facility. Thanks again for the great service.

We have used RACKsteel Material Handling at our previous warehouse and just finishing up an install at our new location. Everyone from purchasing, sales, to install staff that I dealt with many times, have all been so amazing to deal with. We have had multiple curve balls and changes that were never a big deal to them and they made it so easy with rolling with all the changes and hiccups as if it was always part of the plan. I have recommended them already and will continue to as well as use them again on any future projects we have.
