Who schedules the rack installation?

Yes. We handle design, new-material supply and installation by experienced installation crews we schedule and manage. The crews work to the approved CAD layout, anchor the rack to the floor and apply load plaques before handover.

How do you price a cantilever rack project?

Price depends on pallet positions, height, beam capacity, decking, freight and installation. Send pallet size, the heaviest load per level, usable clear height and building size for a free CAD layout and an itemized quote. For long-load or case storage, include bundle or carton dimensions and weights too.

What load rating do I need for cantilever rack?

There is no single capacity for cantilever rack. Each arm is rated for its supported share of the bundle, and column capacity depends on arm levels and spacing. We size the arms and columns to your heaviest load and put the ratings on load plaques.

How do I choose between rack types?

Selective teardrop rack is the starting point for mixed SKUs and direct access. Pushback stores two to six pallets deep, last-in, first-out by SKU; pallet flow suits FIFO or dated stock, drive-in suits bulk quantities of few SKUs, cantilever holds long loads, and carton flow serves case picking. We compare the fit against your inventory before drawing rows.

How do pallet dimensions determine rack size?

For standard 48-inch-deep pallets, 42-inch-deep uprights are the usual starting point. Common beam lengths are 96 inches for two 40-inch pallets, 108 inches, and 144 inches for three pallets. Measure the real load, including overhang; rack height follows usable clear height and your forklift lift height.

Cantilever rack holds long or awkward loads on arms that reach out from a single column line. There is no front upright in the way, so lumber, pipe and tubing load from the side.

Across South Florida, building materials suppliers and marine parts distributors are the main buyers. Both handle long product that will not sit on a pallet.

Building Materials and Marine Supply Yards

Construction keeps lumber, drywall, conduit and steel moving through Pompano Beach, Hialeah and Medley. Cantilever lets yards stack it by length and grade.

Marine distributors near Port Everglades, Fort Lauderdale and Riviera Beach store masts, piping and boat trailer parts on arms sized to each item.

Arm Capacity, Length and Forklift Access

Arm capacity and spacing come from your longest and heaviest bundle. Too few arms and long product sags; too many and you pay for steel you do not need.

Side-loaders and standard forklifts need different aisle widths. We confirm your equipment before setting the run spacing.

Single-sided runs fit against a wall; double-sided runs make an island with access from both aisles.

Pipe distributors along the Turnpike in Homestead and boat-part suppliers off I-595 each load differently, so we draw arm levels around your bundles, not a standard spacing.

Outdoor Rack in Heat, Salt Air and Storm Season

Many cantilever runs here sit outside or under a canopy. Year-round humidity and coastal air make galvanized finishes worth pricing.

Outdoor structures in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone need wind addressed in the engineering. Indoor rack avoids most of that.

We also plan installation around hurricane season, from June to November, so crews are not caught mid-build.
