Cantilever Rack in Lehi, UT
Cantilever rack in Lehi gives long materials an open loading face without front columns interrupting placement. Horizontal arms project from uprights, supporting bar, pipe, tube, and lumber across several points. For a first warehouse, that simple arrangement still needs a deliberate match between stock dimensions, handling equipment, and the floor space available for travel.
Begin with a material list rather than a drawing of empty rows. Separate loose lengths from strapped bundles, and record the shortest pieces as well as the longest. Technology hardware and light assembly operations may need extrusion storage beside pallet positions, with each storage method assigned to the load it handles well.
Cantilever racking selected around the load
Arm length must support the load depth without encouraging material to hang beyond its intended bearing area. Establish how bundles sit during placement and withdrawal. A deep bundle cannot be accepted merely because its weight appears suitable for an available arm.
Capacity review includes individual arms, uprights, bases, and the complete arrangement. Uneven loading changes the forces within the system, especially when one level carries more than another. Provide actual bundle weights and proposed support spacing instead of dividing weight equally by assumption.
Short lengths require enough bearing points to remain stable. Long stock may bend if supports are spaced too widely, while mixed lengths can become hard to retrieve when buried together. Assign clear length groups and keep product identification visible from the handling aisle.
Lehi receiving routes and first warehouse decisions
Near Pioneer Crossing and the I-15 corridor, first-time warehouse tenants should map receiving before assigning long-stock rows. Silicon Slopes hardware operations can separate assembly materials from outbound packaged goods rather than forcing both into one storage format. For Lehi cantilever work, we are a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., supplying and installing since 1997.
Four decisions before ordering arms
Load depth
Measure the full bundle profile, including bands and packing pieces. Choose arm reach around supported material rather than the nominal description on a purchasing sheet.
Support pattern
Identify where each product may bear and how much deflection it can tolerate. Sheet products may require a suitable support arrangement beyond bare arms.
Handling sequence
Show where incoming lengths are unwrapped, identified, and moved into position. Avoid using the retrieval aisle as a permanent sorting area.
Future changes
List likely changes in length or bundle weight before selecting adjustable levels. Adjustment alone does not establish that a different loading arrangement is acceptable.
Cantilever storage rack access and placement
A single-sided row can suit a perimeter position, provided its base and loading envelope fit the building. Double-sided rows allow access from both faces but require working aisles on each side. Compare usable storage after those aisles are drawn, not before.
Forklift selection affects the space needed to approach and withdraw a bundle. A side-loader may carry long pieces along a narrower travel path, but its actual operating envelope must be checked. Include the load ends when reviewing turns beside doors and adjacent shelving.
Indoor placement protects sensitive stock from weather exposure; an outdoor arrangement needs components and finishes selected for the conditions. Review drainage, material wrapping, and handling surfaces together. Selective pallet rack remains the clearer choice for palletized cartons that do not benefit from an open frontage.
