The Uses and Benefits Of Cantilever Racking

Cantilever racking is an effective solution for storing long and heavy items. It is an open-fronted system that allows for storage of items of any length. Cantilever racking systems are robust and can withstand even the most arduous industrial environments.

There are many benefits to having cantilever racking systems in a warehouse. They can boost efficiency and productivity, effectively utilise space, and maximise storage capacity. Here we explore some of the uses and benefits of cantilever racking.

Key features

● Organised storage of long, heavy loads

● Fully bolt-together system

● Single and double sided

● Custom designed, tailored to your specific requirements

● Heights of up to 10 metres available

● Weight loads of up to 5 tonnes per arm can be supported

Storage capacity

Arm lengths and capacities are tailored to suit your requirements. Systems with rack heights of 10 metres and an arm length of 2.5 metres can hold up to 2500 kilograms per level, or up to 5 tonnes per arm.

Versatility

Cantilever racking systems are ideal for storing a wide variety of items, including aluminium sheet and plate, timer packs, heavy pipes and tubes, steel sections, worktops and laminates, scrap vehicles, extrusion, concrete and sheet lintels, raw materials, and panels.

Vertical storage

By building upwards and utilising vertical space, cantilever racking can help to keep the floor of your warehouse clear from obstruction and maximise storage capacity. You can use cantilever racking to store stock which is accessible at height as well as within arm’s reach.

Improved safety standards

In helping to clear the floor of obstruction, and storing items out of harm’s way, there will be fewer hazards on the floor, fewer accidents, and a clearer, wider path for people and vehicles to navigate safely through the warehouse.

Indoor or outdoor use

Designed to withstand the weather, cantilever racking is suitable for both indoor and outdoor installation. This means that you can utilise the space outside your warehouse as well as inside to really maximise capacity.

Robust and long-lasting

Cantilever racking systems are built to last. They are hard-wearing and can withstand most weather conditions for many years. They can also withstand a high amount of pressure and heavy loads without compromising the integrity of the racks.
