Roll Out Racks help industrial facilities make better use of available workspace while giving employees safer, more direct access to stored materials. Their modular systems are built around real handling and storage needs, making it easier to organize heavy inventory without wasting valuable floor space.
A roll-out rack is a heavy-duty storage system with sliding shelves, drawers, or platforms that bring stored materials closer to the operator. Rack-mounted and floor-mounted options provide easy access to raw materials while improving storage density, inventory management, and available storage space.
Roll Out Racks develops industrial storage systems for facilities that handle heavy, bulky, or difficult-to-access materials. The product range includes sheet racks, cantilever racks, roll-out systems, and honeycomb racks designed to organize steel, metal sheets, raw materials, and other heavy inventory.
Many configurations use sliding or extendable storage levels that allow materials to move into an open working area. This gives forklifts, overhead cranes, hoists, and operators better access without requiring workers to reach deep into static rack bays.
The Universal Sheet Rack provides flexible storage for facilities with changing material requirements. Drawers and fixed levels can be combined within the same system, allowing the rack configuration to change as your inventory, available space, or production needs evolve.
Honeycomb Racks organize long materials into individual storage openings for quick identification and access. They are well suited to tubes, bars, flat stock, angles, and similar materials that are difficult to manage in open floor storage.
The Sheet Tower provides vertical storage for raw sheet material while keeping individual loads accessible for production. Forklifts can place material into the system, making it a practical option near laser, plasma, and water-jet cutting equipment where fast material gathering supports the production process.
The Roll Out Vertical Sheet Rack provides organized storage for smaller sheets, offcuts, partial pieces, and material remaining after cutting. Keeping these materials separated and visible helps reduce clutter while making useful remnants easier to find and reuse.
Roll Out Racks respond to demanding handling and storage needs by improving access while making better use of available space. Built with thick steel and heavy-duty rollers, rack-mounted and floor-mounted options bring raw materials closer to the operator while supporting efficient material gathering and higher storage density.
Roll Out Cantilever Racks provide organized storage for long and heavy materials such as iron bars, piping, structural shapes, and other bulky inventory. Instead of stacking these materials in piles, individual roll-out levels keep them accessible while helping facilities reclaim valuable floor space and make hand picking safer.
Roll Out Sheet Racks provide a more organized way to store sheet metal, plate, and other flat materials that can quickly consume floor space when stacked horizontally.
Separate storage levels keep materials visible and accessible, while full-extension drawers allow loads to move into an open area for overhead crane or hoist access. This reduces the need to move several sheets just to reach the material stored underneath.
Roll Out Racks reduce the time and effort required to reach stored materials. Instead of reaching deep into a rack or moving surrounding inventory, workers can bring the required load directly into an accessible position.
This design supports faster picking and better organization by allowing individual drawers or levels to be assigned to specific materials, tools, or mechanical components.
Using vertical space also allows facilities to organize more inventory within a narrow footprint while keeping valuable floor area open. Depending on the system, adjustable shelf heights and modular configurations allow storage layouts to change as operational requirements evolve.
Improved access can also reduce unnecessary bending, reaching, climbing, and searching through unstable piles.
Roll-out storage systems are particularly useful in manufacturing facilities handling heavy, long, or awkward materials. Steel frames and heavy-duty components support substantial loads when used within their rated capacities.
Common applications include sheet metal, steel plate, bars, piping, raw materials, manufacturing fixtures, and heavy mechanical components. Individual trays or drawers can be dedicated to specific materials, making inventory easier to identify and manage.
Full-extension shelves also simplify crane and hoist loading. Materials can be lifted directly from above instead of requiring employees to reach into the rack.
The right configuration depends on your rack structure, required load capacity, available space, and intended use.
A rack-mounted roll-out rack is installed within a pallet rack and supports up to 1,000 lbs. UDL. These units fit structural and roll-formed racking, making them suitable for many existing or future racking systems.
Before installation, a professional engineer must certify the rack structure for its intended use.
For heavier storage requirements, the floor-mounted roll-out rack supports up to 3,000 lbs. UDL. It runs on tracks installed on the floor, helping prevent unintended relocation while allowing materials to slide outward for easier access.
Floor-mounted designs can also allow the first level of beams to sit lower, creating more storage space and improving vertical storage capacity.
Depending on the system, available features include:
Thick steel and heavy-duty industrial bearings or tracks provide smooth operation in demanding environments. These features make material gathering easier while reducing the physical effort required to handle heavy inventory.
Every roll-out rack must remain within its rated load capacity. The surrounding pallet rack, crane, hoist, forklift, or other material handling equipment must also be rated for the weight being handled.
Keep heavy loads stable, avoid excessive overhang, and remove damaged pallets or equipment from service. Aisles and travel routes should remain clear while heavy materials are being moved.
Rack-mounted roll-out systems become part of the overall storage structure. A professional engineer must therefore certify existing or future racking and confirm that the rack structure is appropriate for the intended use.
The pallet rack should never exceed its approved capacity, even when the roll-out unit itself has additional capacity remaining.
