Cantilever racking for sheet metal

Cantilever racking is the favoured storage system for heavy loads in many industries. They combine so many necessary and desirable features of heavy-duty storage systems and longspan racking that optimum storage structures are always happy to use this model.

Cantilever racking consists of vertical uprights to which beams, i.e. arms, are attached on one side. A cantilever is a beam clamped into the vertical uprights of the shelving on one side. These arms can carry a considerable load and remain firmly anchored in their support. This means that you can store even heavy goods such as machine parts, building materials or sheet metal safely and stably.

The one-sided loose anchoring of the cantilever arms also has the advantage that their height can be easily adjusted. This allows you to adapt the shelving to different formats and weight classes. So you not only have a heavy-duty shelving system, but also a flexible storage shelving system that can be adapted to changing requirements.

Another advantage of cantilever racking is its open design. As there are no shelves, you have quick and easy access to the stored goods. This is an unbeatable advantage in day-to-day business, as time is money. Cantilever racking is characterised above all by its high load capacity, flexibility and accessibility for the smart handling of heavy loads. They combine all the important features required for efficient storage of heavy loads.

Cantilever racking is particularly suitable for storing long, bulky goods such as pipes or sheet metal. Thanks to their design, they enable space-saving and organised storage of long goods that are difficult to accommodate in conventional pallet racking.

The cantilever rack design allows goods to be accessed from both sides, which increases efficiency during storage and retrieval. In addition, cantilever racking offers a high load capacity and can be supplied in different lengths and with different load capacities depending on requirements.

Another particularly practical feature is the option of using cantilever racking on both sides to create even more storage capacity. Even heavier items can be stored safely by fitting roll-proof cantilever arms.

Static cantilever racking is an ideal solution for storing long goods in warehouses or workshops, as it is particularly robust and enables efficient utilisation of the available space. Would you also like such cantilever racking for your goods? Please contact us so that we can manufacture the right racking for your warehouse!

Our cantilever racking is equipped with proven technology and offers an impressive load capacity of 1 tonne per arm. These robust racks are particularly suitable for storing long and bulky goods such as pipes, profiles or other long and heavy goods.

Depending on requirements and needs, different versions are available, including single-sided or double-sided cantilevers. The shelving can be equipped with different levels to ensure optimum utilisation of the available space. The load-bearing capacity of cantilever racking depends on various factors, such as the length of the cantilever arms, the arm load and the load on the individual levels. Thanks to their sturdy construction and high-quality materials, our cantilever racking systems are able to safely store even heavy goods.

For safety, our cantilever racking has a roll-off protection system that prevents stored items from slipping off unintentionally. The shelving uprights are firmly welded and provide a solid base for the entire storage system.

Various options are available for assembly and installation to fulfil the customer's individual requirements. With our storemaster cantilever racking, you can create efficient and clearly organised storage options for your long goods and other bulky goods.

Our cantilever racking offers almost limitless customisation options to optimally meet individual requirements. Whether it's the load per cantilever, the rack length in mm, the number of levels or special requirements such as roll-off protection or welded tubes, we will find the right solution for you.

The cantilever arms can be supplied in different lengths and designs, depending on which stored goods or heavy goods you want to store and what arm load is required per cantilever arm. Double-sided cantilever racking is also possible in order to make optimum use of the available space.

Our cantilever racking is robust and stable as it consists of welded uprights. They are particularly suitable for storing long goods such as pipes. Static cantilever racking is ideal for heavy loads such as sheet metal and offers a high load capacity.

If none of our standardised systems meet your exact requirements, please do not hesitate to contact us. We will be happy to develop customised solutions for your specific storage technology requirements. Our cantilever racking systems are customised for your warehouse and your stored goods to ensure optimum storage.

A key difference between single-sided and double-sided cantilever racking lies in their functionality and installation. Single-sided cantilever racking is typically mounted on a wall or other solid surface and therefore only provides access to the stored goods on one side. These racks are particularly suitable for warehouses with limited space, as they save space by only allowing loading on one side.

In contrast, double-sided cantilever racking offers access from both sides and therefore enables more efficient utilisation of the available space. They are particularly suitable for warehouses where there is a high turnover rate of goods and fast storage and retrieval is required.

Both types of cantilever racking can be equipped with additional features such as roll-proof cantilevers, welded brackets or special load capacities as required. The choice between single-sided and double-sided cantilever racking therefore depends on the specific requirements of the warehouse and the stored goods. Overall, cantilever racking offers an effective solution for the storage of long goods and other bulky goods in various industries and is an important component of modern warehouse technology and storage systems.

Static cantilever racking is the traditional form of cantilever racking. They are permanently installed and cannot be moved or rearranged without completely dismantling them. This type of racking is ideal for storing materials that rarely need to be moved and whose storage location does not need to be changed frequently. Especially when cantilever racking is used to store heavy loads or long goods, it is static. However, they require more space than dynamic racking and are less flexible.

Dynamic cantilever racking, on the other hand, is more flexible and mobile. They are fitted with rollers or rails that allow the arms to move along the racking structure. This means that they can be easily rearranged to fulfil different storage needs. They are ideal for storing materials that need to be moved regularly. This includes coils or slit strips, for example. Dynamic cantilever racking tends to be more expensive than static racking, but offers more flexibility and can often allow more efficient use of available space.

An example of a static cantilever rack from storemaster is the Armstrong BN, because it has the following features

• Firm arms: The arms of the shelving are rigidly mounted and offer a permanent storage solution with no moving parts.
• Sturdy construction: The shelving is designed for maximum stability and load-bearing capacity to safely store heavy or long goods.
• Simple organisation: Ideal for a fixed storage arrangement where no frequent adjustments or changeovers are required.

Static cantilever racking such as the Armstrong BN is ideal for applications where a strong and reliable storage structure is required to store heavy or bulky materials.
