Cantilever industrial shelving | Pedlex storage solutions

Why Choose Cantilever Racking for Your Storage Needs?

Our cantilever racking systems are exclusively designed and manufactured to rival even the most durable heavy-duty solutions that are available on the market.

Ideal for storing long or unusually shaped products such as sheet steel, drywall, timber beams, and steel bars, these fully modular systems are engineered according to your specifications, providing you with safe, clear access to your merchandise.

With a wide range of configurations available, our cantilever storage racks can accommodate heavy materials while maximizing floor space. These systems are particularly useful in lumber yards, construction materials storage, and industrial warehouses where bulky items need to be organized efficiently for storage for materials.

How Cantilever Racking Optimizes Warehouse Space?

This cantilever industrial shelving can be quickly and easily loaded from the front, making it an efficient storage solution for warehouses. Compared to traditional industrial shelving, cantilever racks offer greater flexibility for storing long and bulky materials.

The powder paint finish makes it a perfect choice for installation indoors or outdoors, protecting against water penetration.

Additionally, roll-formed steel and structural cantilever bases ensure enhanced load capacity while minimizing the footprint required for heavy-duty items. For outdoor storage, galvanized options provide extra protection against corrosion, ensuring durability in harsh environments.

Cantilever Racking Components: Understanding the System

The columns are perforated along their entire length, making it easy to adjust the shelves for a customizable storage solution that fits your storage requirements. These columns are essential components of structural racks, providing durability and high load capacity for industrial storage.

Choose among the 15 standard arm lengths between 12″ and 96″, and a medium or extra heavy-duty capacity of up to 23,460 lb per arm. Our cantilever rack storage system allows for arm adjustment, arm length selection, and arm.

Our cantilever rack storage system allows for arm adjustment, arm length selection, and arm stoppers for maximum flexibility with individual cantilever rack components.

Cantilever arms: Available in single-sided styles and double-sided units, these arms provide horizontal space for storing bulky materials.
Base legs: Designed to support heavy loads and heavy items, ensuring stability in seismic requirements areas. Additionally, our options cantilever racking bases provide enhanced support for customizable storage solutions.
Rack braces and horizontal beams: Essential for increasing the storage efficiency of beam cantilever racking and cantilever shelving systems.
Cross bracing sets: Provide additional protection and increase structural stability.

Types of Cantilever Racking Systems

Single-sided cantilever racking: Ideal for limited space, optimizing vertical supports and upright columns while ensuring easy access for lift trucks.
Double-sided cantilever racking: Maximizes storage capacity, perfect for bulk storage applications.
Heavy-duty cantilever racking system: Designed for pipe racks, lumber racking, and steel pipe storage, our heavy-duty cantilever racking system is engineered to handle the heaviest warehouse loads.
Outdoor applications: Weather-resistant cantilever racks selection for outdoor storage of construction materials.
Pallet rack starter kits: Ready-to-install solutions for industrial warehouses needing efficient storage solutions. These pallet rack starter kits simplify the setup process and maximize storage efficiency. If you need additional storage for pallets, consider our pallet racking systems, which provide a sturdy and scalable option for warehouse organization.
