Warehouse Cantilever Racking

There are thousands of warehouse types across the world, but most of them aren’t utilizing the space to their full potential. Cantilever racking is an accessible storage type that should be used for businesses like metal fabrication shops, plumbers, furniture suppliers, and more. Our experts at BL Pallet Racking can help provide insight on what racking or shelving is best for your industry. Each storage option we offer is high quality and rated for the highest durability to keep your items safe.

Building Supply Stores

One industry that will benefit from cantilever racking is building supply stores. They have a variety of long and awkward materials to store for a variety of projects. The open front design of cantilever racking makes it ideal for storing products that need to be accessed quickly. Dimensional lumber, plastic piping, trusses, molding and trim, and sheetrock can all be stored on a rack. 

Most building supply stores have high ceilings that go to waste. Maximizing the vertical warehouse space will help you keep unnecessary items near the top, while being able to access highly needed products without a forklift or ladder. Construction projects can be stalled because of limited access to materials, so having an organized supply space can help speed up the building process.

Metal Fabrication Shops

Metal fabrication shops require flexible and durable storage solutions that can handle heavy weights. Metal fabrication shops will need to store different types of metal, tubing, equipment, and projects. Utilizing cantilever racks will help keep these items stored vertically and off the floor. Stacking metal on the ground can take up valuable workspace, so putting full-length materials on racks will keep it organized until cutting is needed. 

Metal fabrication is also an industry that requires precision, so protecting metal from damage or weak points is crucial. Keeping metals off the floor will prevent uneven warping over time, scratches, dents, and moisture damage. Cantilever racking allows metal to rest fully supported and spaced apart.

Furniture Warehouses

Tabletops, couches, bedframes, cabinetry, mattresses, and other oddly shaped furniture need a proper home in a furniture warehouse. Dealing with oversized pieces can be difficult if you don’t have the proper racking. When furniture warehouses don’t organize and store properly, there is a higher risk of furniture becoming damaged. Storing items properly will prevent them from becoming easily scratched or dented while workers are moving through the warehouse.

Furniture warehouses often need to have quick pickup times for customers or furniture stores that need a new shipment. Cantilever racking can make for quick loading and unloading, even for large pieces.
