Cantilever Racking Systems and Installation
Long, heavy or awkward stock needs a storage system designed around accessibility, load support and safe handling. At Storage Concepts, we design and install cantilever racking systems for warehouses, builders’ merchants, manufacturing facilities and industrial environments across the UK.
Our cantilever storage solutions are ideal for storing timber, steel bar, pipework, sheet materials, furniture, cable drums and other non-palletised products that are difficult to accommodate with standard pallet racking.
Whether you need a full warehouse fit-out or additional cantilever bays integrated into an existing facility, we provide a complete design, supply and installation service tailored to your operational requirements.
What is Cantilever Racking?
Cantilever racking is a specialist warehouse storage system designed to support long or oversized items horizontally using load-bearing arms extending from a central column.
Unlike conventional pallet racking, cantilever systems do not use front uprights that restrict access. This creates clear loading and unloading access for forklifts and side loaders, making the system particularly effective for storing lengthy products safely and efficiently.
Single or Double sided
We supply both single-sided and double-sided cantilever racking systems depending on your warehouse layout and storage requirements.
Single-sided systems are typically positioned against walls and provide storage access from one side only. These are often used to maximise perimeter warehouse space while maintaining wide forklift aisles.
Double-sided systems provide storage arms on both sides of the upright column, allowing stock access from either direction. These systems are ideal for central warehouse aisles and higher-density storage environments.
Our team can advise on the most suitable configuration based on available floor space, forklift turning circle, product lengths, stock weight, picking requirements, and future scalability.
