Cantilever Racks for Long and Bulky Items

U.S. Materials Handling provides cantilever racks designed to store long, bulky, and irregularly shaped materials safely and efficiently. These racks eliminate the limitations of traditional pallet racking by offering open-front storage that accommodates items like lumber, steel, tubing, and furniture.

Benefits of Cantilever Racks

-Open design allows easy access for loading and unloading

-Ideal for oversized materials such as wood, pipes, and sheet goods

-Adjustable arms for flexible storage configurations

-Durable steel construction designed for heavy-duty loads

-Maximizes vertical and horizontal storage space

Types of Cantilever Racks

Single-Sided Cantilever Racks

Installed against walls, these racks provide storage on one side and are well-suited for smaller or narrower spaces.

Double-Sided Cantilever Racks 

With arms extending from both sides of the upright, double-sided racks offer maximum storage capacity for central warehouse areas.

Structural Cantilever Racks 

Built from structural steel, these racks provide the strength to handle extremely heavy or high-capacity loads.

Light-Duty Cantilever Racks 

Designed for lighter materials, these systems provide cost-effective solutions for smaller-scale storage.

Space Optimization

Cantilever racks eliminate the need for horizontal beams across the front, creating unobstructed storage space. This open design maximizes flexibility for irregular loads and makes better use of vertical height.

Safety and Efficiency

With adjustable arms and secure upright columns, cantilever racks ensure safe handling of heavy and oversized loads. The design minimizes product damage during loading and unloading while improving efficiency for forklift operators.

Integration with Material Handling Equipment

Cantilever racks work seamlessly with forklifts, side loaders, and other handling equipment. Their open design makes it easy to access long items without maneuvering around restrictive beams.
