# Cantilever Rack in Kenosha, WI

Cantilever rack in Kenosha gives long, bulky inventory an open loading face instead of forcing it between front columns. Projecting arms carry bar, pipe, tube, lumber, and supported sheet bundles while leaving their lengths accessible. The starting point is the actual load: its weight, depth, length, stiffness, and lifting method.

Cantilever racking also separates awkward freight from palletized inventory. A distributor handling mixed receipts can give long products defined positions without letting bundles spread into travel aisles. As a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., we draw on a business supplying and installing storage systems since 1997.

## Cantilever Rack Starts With the Load

Arm length must accommodate load depth without leaving unsupported material beyond the intended bearing surface. Capacity depends on the selected arm, loading pattern, connection, and upright configuration. Dividing bundle weight by arm count is only a starting calculation; uneven placement can put more weight on one support than another.

Kenosha's third-party logistics activity around I-94 Business Park and LakeView Corporate Park makes inventory variety an important design input. When a warehouse accepts long building products alongside boxed goods, separate storage zones can keep protruding lengths away from pallet traffic. The drawing should identify those boundaries before rack dimensions are selected.

### Long Freight Within Mixed Distribution

Near the Pleasant Prairie border, distribution serving Wisconsin and Illinois can combine pallet freight with elongated products. A dedicated long-load area gives receiving staff a defined destination without borrowing space from outbound staging.

## Plan Cantilever Rack Around Handling

A useful layout connects load support with the truck's entire approach, lift, and withdrawal movement. Four checks establish that relationship.

1

### Record every load family

List lengths, bundle depths, weights, and packaging. Flag flexible material and bundles that change shape when lifted so bearing requirements are not overlooked.

2

### Choose support positions

Set upright centers from allowable product overhang and deflection. Short pieces must reach enough arms even when longer stock shares the same row.

3

### Check the handling envelope

Compare forklift fork spread, load center, turning space, and lift height with the proposed arrangement. A side-loader needs its own travel and transfer clearances.

4

### Separate storage duties

Keep selective pallet bays for unitized goods that fit beam openings. Allocate open arms to lengths that need unobstructed placement and withdrawal.

## Cantilever Rack Layout and Installation Scope

We develop the arrangement from an inventory schedule and measured floor plan. Include the shortest item as well as the longest bundle, because upright spacing must support both. Sheet packs may need additional bearing surfaces; loose sheets should not be treated as rigid bundles that can bridge open arms.

Single-sided rows suit perimeter positions where one loading face is enough. Double-sided rows provide access from both aisles but need working room on each face. Indoor and outdoor proposals require different exposure assumptions, so identify rain, snow, drainage, and material protection needs before the finish and configuration are selected.

The installation scope follows the agreed layout and component schedule. Our planning checks rack footprints, base projections, load elevations, and handling clearances together, rather than presenting storage capacity without the space required to reach it.

The free CAD proposal distinguishes long-freight positions from pallet reserve areas. An itemized quote covers new structural material, freight and installation, with experienced assembly crews scheduled and managed to fit the released working area.
