Discuss arms and truck access: (414) 260-3593." lang: en --- Image: Cantilever Rack warehouse storage example (https://milwaukeepalletrack.com/__l5e/assets-v1/06d6aaa4-e9b9-437e-ab43-3455e1c1f904/cantilever-hero.jpg) Brookfield, Wisconsin # Cantilever Rack in Brookfield, WI Cantilever rack in Brookfield gives long inventory an open loading face, with horizontal arms extending from uprights and no front columns interrupting placement. Bar, pipe, tube, lumber and supported sheet loads can occupy assigned levels rather than spreading across floor stacks. The starting point is the material itself: its length, depth, weight, stiffness and handling method determine the arrangement. For wholesale distribution and light assembly, cantilever racking separates incoming bundles from partial quantities needed at a work area. We are a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., which has supplied and installed storage systems since 1997. Our planning connects the rack configuration with the truck movement needed to reach every intended position. (414) 260-3593 ## Cantilever Rack Access Before Position Counts Start with access rather than counting arms. A long bundle needs room to approach squarely, rise above the selected level and settle without catching adjacent stock. Removing front columns helps, but it does not remove the turning envelope of a forklift carrying material wider than the truck. Brookfield Industrial Park and the Capitol Drive corridor provide useful context for mixed commercial inventory. A light assembly operation holding aluminum profiles alongside boxed components may need open arms for profiles and separate selective bays for cartons on pallets. Keeping those functions distinct avoids forcing unlike loads into one storage format.

Map receiving, storage and issue points so neither material stream blocks the other. Wholesale distribution Light assembly Commercial supply ## Size Cantilever Rack Around Actual Bundles Four checks connect the stored product to its supporting structure and the equipment that places it. 1 ### Measure load depth Select arm length from the supported bundle depth, allowing the required seating position without treating unsupported projection as usable storage. 2 ### Establish supported weight Check the rating of each arm and the complete upright assembly. Uneven bundles may not divide their weight equally between supports. 3 ### Set upright centers Choose spacing from stock stiffness, permitted overhang and the shortest stored length. Flexible material may require more closely spaced support points. 4 ### Test the handling path Compare forklift or side-loader specifications with load length, approach direction, lift height and aisle geometry before accepting a row position. ## Cantilever Rack Layout and Installation Scope Our layout review identifies usable wall runs, freestanding row positions, building columns and loading approaches. Single-sided units offer access from one aisle; double-sided units provide two working faces where both aisles can remain available. Their bases and loaded projections belong on the drawing, not just the upright centerline. For indoor or outdoor placement, we review exposure, finish requirements, the supporting surface and the proposed configuration. Sheet bundles may need designed decking or additional support rather than bare arms alone. Installation scope follows the agreed component arrangement, with arm elevations and load information tied to the specified materials. Send the longest and shortest stock lengths together. Short pieces can otherwise lose a support point within a row arranged around longer bundles. A free CAD comparison shows the two row arrangements against your supply inventory. The itemized quote separates new material, freight and installation, with experienced crews scheduled and managed around the agreed receiving access.
