A-Z Storage Systems Ltd Cantilever Racking

Our cantilever racking systems are built with a sturdy design, utilising heavy-duty universal beam sections for the uprights and bases. Each system is customised based on individual structural requirements to offer the most cost-effective solution tailored to your specific needs. You can choose from single or double-sided units with various painted or galvanized finishes. Additionally, the systems come with vertical arm adjustment on 150mm centres as a standard feature.

Main Features:

  • Horizontal Arms: Cantilever racking features horizontal arms that extend from vertical columns. These arms provide support and storage for long and bulky items.

  • Single or Double-Sided: Cantilever racking can be single-sided, with arms on one side, or double-sided, with arms on both sides of the vertical columns. This provides flexibility in storage options.

  • Adjustable Arm Heights: The arm heights are often adjustable, allowing you to customise the system to accommodate various load sizes and types.

  • Open Design: The open design of cantilever racking makes it suitable for items that vary in length and do not easily fit into traditional pallet racking.

  • High Weight Capacity: Cantilever racking is engineered to support heavy loads, making it suitable for storing items like steel bars, pipes, lumber, and more, with a loading capacity ranging from 500 kg to 15 tons per arm.

  • Accessibility: Suitable for forklifts and crane handling.
