Cantilever rack capacity depends on the selected system, arm configuration, column design, and load requirements. Light-, medium-, and heavy-duty arm capacities are available, but a specific rating should be confirmed through application-based engineering. Provide the product weight, dimensions, distribution, and storage arrangement so the appropriate capacity can be evaluated.

Cantilever racks should be installed according to the manufacturer’s system requirements and the approved layout. The process generally includes reviewing the floor and space, positioning columns and bases, fitting arms at the required heights, checking alignment, and verifying the completed installation. Factory-recommended and insured installers are available through the stated installation service.

Single-sided cantilever racks are designed for placement against a wall, with storage access from one side. Double-sided systems are free-standing and provide storage access from both sides of an aisle. The appropriate choice depends on available floor space, aisle planning, access requirements, and whether the rack will be positioned along a perimeter or within the storage area.

Cantilever racks are designed for long and bulky items that may not fit standard pallet rack openings. Listed applications include tubing, pipe, conduit, lumber, furniture, sheet goods, steel bar stock, rebar, structural steel, fencing materials, carpet rolls, flooring, and large-format components. Product dimensions and load characteristics should be reviewed before selecting the configuration.

Outdoor cantilever rack configurations are available with galvanized variants for applications such as lumber yards, steel service centres, and yard storage. Galvanized finishes are also identified for outdoor and corrosive-environment applications. The storage environment, product exposure, loading conditions, and required arm capacities should be reviewed during system planning.
