Discuss load support: (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) Cudahy, Wisconsin # Cantilever Rack in Cudahy, WI Cantilever rack in Cudahy supports long stock on projecting arms so a truck can approach an open front without working between front columns. That geometry suits bar, pipe, tube, lumber and sheet loads whose length makes conventional pallet openings awkward. The design must still account for how each bundle bends, where its weight bears and how it is lifted. A cantilever storage rack should be specified around the heaviest actual bundle, not a general description such as steel stock. Operating as a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., we draw on a supply and installation history dating to 1997. We translate material measurements into arm, upright and access requirements before selecting a layout. (414) 260-3593 ## Cantilever Rack Support Starts With the Load Work through the bundle characteristics first, then confirm how the selected truck reaches the resulting positions. 1 ### Document weight and shape List bundle dimensions, maximum weight and any uneven bearing points. Identify round stock that needs a specified means of retaining its position. 2 ### Match arm projection Choose sufficient arm length for the load depth. Check per-arm ratings together with total upright capacity at the proposed elevations. 3 ### Resolve support spacing Place uprights to limit sag and end overhang. Include shorter lengths in this check rather than designing solely around full bundles. 4 ### Check loaded truck travel Review forklift turning clearance or side-loader travel width with the actual stock aboard. Include insertion, withdrawal and lift movements at each level. ## Cantilever Rack Placement and Assembly Planning The drawing should show the full base footprint, arm projection and load envelope. A single-sided row can serve a perimeter position; a double-sided arrangement needs working space on both faces. We compare those choices against doors, adjacent equipment and the path between receiving and material issue. Outdoor storage requires a configuration and finish suitable for the exposure, plus review of the supporting surface and site conditions. Indoor locations need their own clearance checks, including the highest loading movement. Neither placement should be selected merely because an empty rectangle appears on a floor plan. Installation planning identifies component locations and agreed arm elevations. Keeping the load schedule with the arrangement helps buyers assess later inventory changes against the specified capacities. For quoting, we turn the stock list into a free CAD plan showing support locations and retrieval aisles. New components and installation are itemized separately; experienced installation crews work to a sequence we schedule and manage.

Long lengths need support across several arms, while fittings can remain in selective bays. Giving each load type an appropriate location keeps small packaged items from occupying space intended for extended material. An open face also makes partial bundles visible, but visibility is not a substitute for separation. Assign locations by section, length or material family so workers can identify the required stock without shifting unrelated bundles. Plan where loose remnants belong before they accumulate across otherwise usable arms.

Pipe and tube held for plant maintenance need accessible support without displacing palletized operating supplies from their established storage areas.
