Cantilever Steel Storage Racks

Forklift-friendly Rack Systems

Cantilever racks are unique among racks in that they employ vertical supports at the rear of the rack only, with “arms” extending from the columns at the back of the cantilever rack storage system to support loads.

The benefit of this configuration is wide-open access at the front of the rack for loading and storing a wide variety of long, bulky, or awkward loads. The arms, which are available in a wide variety of styles and sizes, are easily reconfigured to make this an ideal solution for storing items such as furniture and building materials utilizing a heavy-duty cantilever racking system to support the weight of the items.

Cantilever steel storage racks can be used indoors or outdoors. With the addition of decking, cantilever rack storage can also provide similar storage to pallet racking, with the advantage that, with no front column, there is easy access for loading and unloading as each storage slot is immediately accessible. This can lower your handling time and costs. The arms provide adjustable rack openings that easily accommodate various load dimensions.

I-Beam Cantilever rack

I-Beam cantilever steel storage racks allow access from both sides. This design saves horizontal space normally lost to rack structure, reduces fork truck damage, and allows for faster load and unload times. They’re constructed of structural steel with a 50,000 psi minimum yield. With freestanding heights up to 30′ and 8′ arm lengths, they provide a lot of storage options. Arms adjust vertically in 4″ increments. With a heavy arm connector plate and bolted column-to-base connections, they’re a rugged addition to your storage lineup.

The cantilever rack storage system easily stores:

  • Steel bars
  • Wood
  • Plywood
  • Lumber
  • Furniture
  • Appliances
  • Pipe
  • Structural members
