Cantilever Racking

Cantilever racking is a highly versatile storage system that is used for the storage of bulky, long or irregular shaped products that are not easily stored on normal pallet racking

It is a high capacity system. Each project is tailored to your needs with arms and uprights having varying heights depths and load capacities along with different bay lengths depending on the product being stored.

Cantilever racking can be painted for warehouse use or fully galvanised for outdoor storage.

They are commonly found in builders providers, steel distributors, manufacturing plants and plumb centres.

The system is easily loaded by forklift. We have systems up to ten metres in height and they can be fabricated with backing and roofs to protect from the weather. We offer nationwide delivery and installation on all Cantilever Racking should you require it.

Why Purchase Cantilever Racking?

1. Perfect for Long Products

Ideal for storing:

• Timber and lumber
• Steel sections
• Pipes and tube
• PVC conduit
• Sheet materials
• Furniture and worktops

Traditional pallet racking often struggles with these products, while cantilever racking is purpose-built for their storage.

2. Open Front Access

Because there are no front uprights:

• Forklifts can load and unload easily.
• Faster stock movement.
• Less product damage.
• Excellent visibility of stored stock.

3. Maximises Warehouse Space

• Makes effective use of vertical height.
• Keeps long products off the floor.
• Creates a cleaner, safer warehouse layout.
• Reduces clutter and wasted floor space.

4. Highly Flexible

• Arm levels can be adjusted.
• Accommodates varying product lengths and weights.
• Can grow with changing stock profiles.

5. Improves Safety

Instead of stacking long materials on the floor:

• Stock is organised and secure.
• Reduced trip hazards.
• Better forklift access.
• Lower risk of product damage and injury.

What we stock

Alongside the made-to-order racks we hold bays at 3000mm high with columns at 1000mm centres. Arms come at 1000mm and 1200mm, rated 250kg each, on 300mm × 80mm columns rated 1000kg excluding the base. Bases run to 1200mm deep, and you need another 400mm from the wall for counterbalance, so a 1200mm base wants 1600mm of floor.
