A Few Innovative Ways to Use Cantilever Racking

A Few Innovative Ways to Use Cantilever Racking

Cantilever racking is a common storage solution and storage system used for storing large, large, and pallet items. Cantilever rack systems do not have front supporting columns, which increase product visibility and access to inventory. Wearing a cantilever system with decking creates a hybrid storage solution by combining features of cantilever racks and pallet racks. Cantilevers can also carry attachments to a training attachment to accommodate hanging items such as clothing or boxes.


Cantilever Racking Coat with Deck

Adding decking to the cantilever rack creates cantilevered shelving that can carry palletized installations and larger items usually stored in the cantilever. Decking raises the exact storage area without replacing the floor. Decorative options range from wire decking to particle board and steel decking.


Wire mesh decking

For more visible cantilever decking, use wire mesh decking. Wire Mesh Decking comes in a variety of sizes, ranging from the smallest 18 ”depth“ 35 ”width to the maximum 48” by 47 ”width. The wire mesh decking also maintains the fire safety of the cantilever rack by providing water access and fire pressure from the spraying systems. According to the Rack Manufacturers Institute, loads on wire racks should be evenly distributed to avoid loading the point. Loading points can lead to decking injuries, excessive deviation, or falls.


Particleboard decoration

Decorating particleboard is an inexpensive way to build storage sheds for lightweight materials. Particleboards connect to cantilever arms and stand on top. Lyon Particle Board Decking has a load capacity of 650 lbs. at 1,000 lbs. As particle board is relatively lightweight, it is suitable for lightweight cantilever systems such as the Little Giant All Welded Cantilever Rack, with a maximum load capacity of 1,500 lbs. for each unit of shelves.


Heavy Metal Floor

Heavy-duty steel decking is the best option if your cantilever racking system needs to store heavy products in palletized and non-palletized forms. The Little Giant All-Welded Steel Rack Decking has a loading capacity of 3,000 lbs. at each stage of decking. Stage depth measurements range from 36 "x 46" to 48 "x 58". The metal trim includes a waterfall lip that passes through the cantilever arms for extra protection, unlike the particle board deck. The number of components per recording phase depends on the width of the stage, the arm capacity, and the weight of the inventory.


Attach Hanging Rail Rails

Another new way to use your cantilever racking system as a storage system and storage solution is to attach horizontal rails between the arms to hang a lightweight inventory. This last resort is great for keeping lots of clothes or boxes open.


Protect Your Inventory and Staff

The cantilever rack for storage systems and solutions has high accessibility, but that comes with the risk of reduced product storage. Holding hoses at the end of the arms stops things from falling in front of the rack, and strings with spaces do the same behind the rack.
