Similar to other cantilever racking, industrial racking is designed for very heavy-duty and high-capacity storage. BL Pallet Racking offers all pallet racking and cantilever racking parts, so you can make a system that best serves your business. These storage options improve handling to help you achieve faster unloading and loading. Industrial racking will have a higher load capacity than other options, making it ideal for large businesses or those who carry heavy materials. Learn more about utilizing industrial cantilever racking in your business below.
Comparing Industrial And Warehouse Racking
Most racking systems look similar and perform similar functions, so it is common for businesses to intermix industrial and warehouse systems. Industrial cantilever racking is designed for high-capacity storage for places like manufacturing plants, lumber yards, or metal service centers. All materials have to start somewhere, often before they reach your local hardware store or construction company. These plants are ideal for industrial cantilever racking.
Warehouse cantilever racking is more adjustable and used to store various types of inventory. It is best to hold medium loads rather than objects that way over a ton. Warehouses often need as much storage as possible, so they prioritize flexibility and vertical space over maximum weight capacity.
Capacity Of Industrial Racking
Industrial options have higher load ratings per arm and column, making them ideal for those who ship or supply metal, wood, plastic, copper, steel, or other materials. Depending on the size of the racking, the system can support up to 30,000 lbs. Each arm that is 48×4 can hold 2,000 lbs, so the weight depends on height and the number of arms on your rack. If you choose a double-sided rack, for example, you may be able to store over 10,000 lbs on each side.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Make an informed decision about business storage
-
Do I Need A Forklift To Use Cantilever Racks?
It is recommended to use a forklift or side loader to safely place or remove items from the rack. Since the items will be long and heavy, using industrial equipment will protect the work and the items from damage or injury. Light-duty racking options may be managed by workers themselves, but in an industrial setting, forklifts and cranes are needed to move materials.
-
Is Cantilever Racking Safe?
When installed by a professional and maintained frequently, cantilever racking is extremely safe. In fact, these racking systems are known to improve safety inside a warehouse or manufacturing plant. By keeping items off the floor of your workspace, you are helping equipment and workers get around without worry.
Industrial cantilever racking also comes with integrated safety features, including load signage (indicating what is too heavy or not recommended on the rack), arm locking pins, secure anchoring, and seismic or wind bracing components (if your racking is placed outside or if your business is located in an earthquake zone).
-
How High Can Cantilever Racking Go?
The height of the cantilever racking depends on what your forklift or crane can reach and the height of your warehouse. You should also consider when the racking will have compromised stability as you stack items higher and higher. If items have the risk of falling, you should probably not extend cantilever racking any higher. Consult with our experts at BL Pallet Racking if you are unsure of the proper height for racking.
