Cantilever racking is a highly resistant storage system: loads are stored horizontally on industrial-grade “arms” and can be retrieved easily using forklifts.

Cantilever racks come in two different models:

  • Single-sided cantilever rack: This option is perfect if you want to house the unit against a wall. Take into account that this structure can be fully modified if your needs change: arms can be added to convert the unit into a double-sided structure.
  • Two-sided cantilever racks: storing goods on both sides of the structure (front and back) is extremely handy when you set up cantilever units in your warehousing center.

What goods are stored in cantilever racks?

This storage solution is a great match for housing long loads and for different building materials of all types and sizes, like wood, sheet metal, rebar, lintels, etc.

Choose from a wide variety of cantilever racking, from light to heavy-duty versions. These industrial racks fully adapt to the needs of logistics warehouses and house up to 7.14-tonne loads. The same goes for the cantilever racks’ height, which is totally customizable.
