Cantilever racking is used by businesses in a wide range of industries to store their goods and products in a safe and secure manner. It is most suitable for long and/or heavy products including lengths of timber and plastic drainpipes.

Cantilever racking is essentially simple in design, being comprised of strong steel uprights on to which cantilever arms are attached. Naturally, the steel that is used to form the racking system needs to be strong in order to withstand the large weights that will be placed upon it.

There are a range of cantilever arms available which give this storage system an element of flexibility. The different arms make it possible for loads of varying weights to be stacked on the racking, meaning that you can store different products on the same rack, saving space and improving efficiency. This is a perfect storage solution for industries such as building suppliers and timber merchants who hold varied stock items.

To maximise space in the warehouse, the uprights are drilled with holes on 2 sides to allow arms to be installed into both. This means that the racking is double sided and able to hold double the amount of items without wasting any space; perfect for even the smallest of storage facilities.

Each warehouse and storage facility is different in terms of size, layout and goods that it holds, therefore your racking system will need to be bespoke to your own needs.
