As a warehouse manager or owner you’ll most likely be required to wear a lot of hats, including being the person responsible for finding the best kind of storage for the products you house. This may mean incorporating different solutions for different areas or at different times, with the most common solution being pallet storage.
However, some goods simply aren’t suitable to be shipped on pallets, for example, wooden planks or lengths of steel. However, when a different sort of storage is needed cantilever racking systems are ideal for keeping more awkward items safe.
What is a Cantilever Racking System?
Cantilever racking systems are made up of a steel column and base which has heavy duty arms bolted to one end. Long or heavy items can be placed along the projected arms horizontally. The arms can be adjusted so several layers or rows can be stacked within the same space.
Why choose a Cantilever System?
A cantilever racking system is an ideal space saving solution for storing long loads such as timber boards, plastic extrusions and steel tubes and bars.
When you opt for a cantilever system it can be galvanised for maximum durability when used externally and painted to match your company colours or to set up a colour codes system. This type of shelving system can be adjusted so that different weights and sizes of goods can be stored together. In addition, they can be designed and constructed to exactly meet your needs whether you have a small or large space to fill.
Maximise your Capacity
Cantilever racking systems are designed to be able to hold a large volume and also extremely heavy loads. This is particularly useful where several items of varying weight are stored in the same area as it guarantees stability, reducing the risk of accidents.
This means cantilever systems can be used in warehouses, industrial settings, factories and any other area where effective storage is required, including outside spaces and areas that are exposed to the elements.
So if you want to find a quick, easy and cost effective solution to your warehouse storage that will leave plenty of room for future expansion then consider installing cantilever shelving in your warehouse, factory or industrial unit.
