So much warehouse space is wasted by horizontal storage. Posts, columns, and shelving can needlessly take up a large portion of your usable storage area. If you need to store oddly-shaped and sized items, such as pre-packaged lumber or pipes, cantilever racks provide advantages that conventional shelving simply cannot match.
OUR CANTILEVER RACKING & STORAGE SYSTEMS:
Hold Hard-to-Shelve Items, such as lumber, steel pipes, tubing, & more
Utilize Vertical Space to get the most out of your warehouse
Provide Flexible Design to customize your storage system for your needs
Since cantilever racks use beams or arms rather than shelves, it is easy to adjust the height, angle, and position of the arms. Depending on the size of your storage load, you can even add more cantilever arms to increase holding capacity. This reduces handling time and allows you to get more done in less time. When you can configure your racks exactly as you need them, stock is more accessible, enhancing productivity and accuracy across the board.
CANTILEVER TYPES AND USES
Cantilever racks, also known as lumber racks or pipe racking, are heavy-duty storage racks meant to hold long, bulky items that would otherwise be difficult to store in standard pallet racking. One of the biggest advantages to using cantilever racks in your warehouse is the easy access they provide. The open design of cantilever racking allows excellent line-of-sight to find items more easily and accurately.
LUMBER CANTILEVER
Cantilever racks are made with large, sturdy columns supporting horizontal arms with horizontal and vertical braces. These long cantilever beams are perfect for stacking and storing large pieces of:
Lumber
Plywood
Wooden beams
and more

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a cantilever?
A cantilever is an inflexible metal structure that is supported on one end, while stretching outward horizontally on the other end. It usually extends out from a strong vertical support like a wall or storage system.
Should I use a structural or roll-form rack?
A warehouse roll-form rack system is the racking of choice for light and medium storage, while on the other hand a structural rack is often the preferred solution for higher density and thicker
applications. Structural racks are thicker and the heavier construction offers improved resistance to impact from forklifts entering and exiting the racks.
Customer service is #1. I have purchased racking from them on several occasions and have always been blown away by their efficiency. My orders have always been ready to load, they have me loaded and ready to go in no time at all. Rack Quality is Excellent. A+++ rating in my book.
We were so pleased with our new racking and shelves from Simply Rack. Tracy was AMAZING throughout the process and with Mike leading the installation crew, it was completed to our specs exactly. We would highly recommend Simply Rack. The price was right, the service was outstanding and the overall experience was excellent. FIVE STARS!
I love working with them. We have used them for our racking needs for years. As our business grows they continue to offer great service, are detailed oriented, and always have what we need. Little far up on the north side from where we are but worth the drive.
