How is cantilever rack different from pallet rack?

Pallet rack has a front beam and stores discrete, boxed loads. Cantilever has an open front, so long material loads from the side and slides in without clearing an obstruction - that's the entire reason the system exists.

How far apart should the columns be?

Close enough that the load doesn't sag between arms. A common starting point puts arm spacing at roughly half the load length, with the remainder overhanging each end evenly. We check that math against your heaviest bundle before finalizing spacing.

Straight arms or inclined arms?

Straight arms suit boxed, banded, or sheet goods. Inclined arms, usually fitted with a lip, keep pipe, tube, and round stock from rolling forward off the arm. Many runs mix both across different levels.

Can arms or levels be added later?

Yes. Arms mount at set increments up the column, so levels can be added or repositioned as your product mix shifts, as long as total load stays within the rated capacity of the column and base.

Do you sell used cantilever rack, or only new?

We focus on new components so load ratings and capacity tags are documented from day one. If used steel makes sense for a short-term need we will say so, but for anything carrying real weight day after day, new is usually the better call.

How do you handle a seasonal peak when we need more positions for a few months?

We size the base system for normal operations and can price temporary or add-on positions separately for peak season, so you are not carrying idle steel the other nine months of the year.

Warehouses near Pompano Industrial Park keep hitting the same wall: a 3PL and manufacturing operation splitting one floor and never having enough of either. Cantilever racking is one of the more direct ways for a Pompano Beach building to add capacity without touching the envelope.

Because this system is about arm length and capacity set by the bundles you handle, we start with the storage math for your Pompano Beach footprint — how many positions it can carry and what that does to travel time — then send a CAD layout and an itemized quote before anything is ordered. Call (305) 930-7780 and tell us what you are storing in Pompano Beach.

Why Pompano Beach Warehouses Work With Us

The industrial stock near Pompano Industrial Park ranges from older infill space to newer construction, and each one limits a racking plan differently. Height, columns, and floor condition all move the answer in Pompano Beach.

Cantilever Rack suits Pompano Beach buildings for one reason — single-sided runs along the wall, double-sided in open floor — which matters more here than in a newer big-box facility built around one uniform layout. We talk through that fit during a free design consult before you commit to steel for Pompano Beach.

One number reaches the people who did the work, whether that is a cantilever rack revision during design or a replacement upright for a Copans Road corridor site three years out.

How Cantilever Rack Works

Arms with nothing in front of them, built for lumber, pipe, and anything a pallet can't hold.

Columns and anchored bases

Upright columns sit on bases anchored to the slab. Base depth is set by load and arm length so the run stays stable even under an off-center pick.

Arms at adjustable heights

Arms bolt or pin into the column at set increments and move as your product mix changes. Straight arms suit boxed goods; inclined arms with a lip hold round or loose stock in place.

Column spacing against sag

Spacing between columns is set so bundles don't sag between arms. A common starting rule places arms about half the load length apart, with the ends overhanging evenly.

Single-sided or double-sided

Single-sided runs go against a wall. Double-sided runs stand in open floor and load from both faces, doubling capacity per base without doubling the footprint.

What a Cantilever Rack Project Includes

We start by understanding the light manufacturing side of your operation — pallet profile, equipment, clear height, SKU count, throughput — because those inputs decide cantilever rack capacity in a Pompano Industrial Park building long before steel is quoted.

Then you get the cantilever rack drawing for your Pompano Industrial Park building: pallet positions, beam or rail elevations, aisle centerlines, and total capacity, priced line by line with beam capacity noted at every level. We often show two versions of the same Pompano Beach floor plan — single-sided runs along the wall, double-sided in open floor — so you compare storage against throughput before choosing.

Standard cantilever rack components ship quickly, and delivery gets scheduled around your Pompano Beach receiving hours rather than dumped in one load. Installation partners anchor, plumb, align, and capacity-tag the finished cantilever rack, phased by zone so Pompano Beach shipping keeps running. Afterward your Pompano Beach team has a documented layout to work from and a local source for beams, decking, and guarding.
