A cantilever storage rack system is a free standing rack system with horizontal arms extending out from a single vertical column. Because cantilever rack systems have no vertical obstruction, they create an opportunity for greater horizontal storage space. This arm rack system is effective for storing non-uniform products, including furniture, building materials, sheet metal, heavy duty metals, pipe, bar stock, appliances, rugs and much more. Cantilever racks can be manufactured using either roll formed or structural steel, depending on the capacity needs of the application.

Some materials don’t fit neatly or effectively into pallet rack systems. Lumber and steel, for example, are often too long and awkward to fit on pallets and may not have squared edges. Materials such as these are best stored using cantilever rack systems. Cantilever Rack Systems are ideal for storing long items in continuous runs in order to avoid left-to-right vertical uprights that interfere with the placement of the product on the shelf. Cantilever racks are found in a wide variety of settings, such as lumber yards, hardware stores, or plumbing supply warehouses. We stock cantilever rack in our Maple Grove, MN location.
