When to Use Cantilever Racking for Long and Awkward Loads

Some loads simply do not fit conventional shelving. Cantilever racking, with its open-armed design, is purpose-built for them.

No front column, no obstruction

The absence of a front upright means you can load long items along the full length of the rack with a forklift or by hand.

Single or double sided

Place it against a wall single-sided, or down the centre of an aisle double-sided for maximum density of long goods.

Ideal loads

Pipes, tubes, timber, plywood, steel profiles and furniture all store cleanly on adjustable cantilever arms.
