Cantilever Rack in West Jordan, UT
Cantilever rack in West Jordan places long building materials on projecting arms rather than inside pallet bays. Uprights carry the arms while the front remains free of columns, allowing access across a long bundle. Lumber, pipe, and bulky trim can each need a different support arrangement despite sharing the same row.
Lower clear heights make load selection and handling clearance especially important. More levels are not automatically more usable storage. Establish bundle thickness, fork entry space, and the height at which the operator can place the material before drawing a dense vertical arrangement.
Cantilever rack levels for varied stock lengths
Choose arm length to carry the full intended depth of the load. Then review per-arm capacity together with upright loading and the location of each level. A deep bundle changes the leverage on the structure, even when its weight resembles a shallower package.
Support spacing must account for lumber flexibility, pipe stiffness, and the shortest pieces retained for sale or production. Do not leave offcuts bridging a gap intended for full-length bundles. Designated short-stock positions can preserve access without mixing incompatible support needs.
A single-sided layout may suit a perimeter with one available approach. Double-sided rows use both faces but need a workable aisle on either side. Include the base footprint and projecting goods when comparing those options against the actual building width.


Plan around Old Bingham Highway building constraints
West Jordan building-product and light manufacturing operations near Old Bingham Highway and the 7800 South corridor should verify usable height before assigning arm levels. Connections toward Mountain View Corridor also make receiving orientation worth mapping, but the building entrance governs the final approach. For West Jordan cantilever work, we are a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., supplying and installing since 1997.
Planning checks for building-product storage
Vertical access
Measure obstructions above the proposed rows and include the handling clearance needed above each bundle. Usable lifting space can be more restrictive than the nominal room height.
Retrieval direction
Map how full lengths enter and leave the aisle. Review a side-loader where appropriate, or confirm that a conventional forklift can align without crossing adjacent stock positions.
Exterior placement
Outdoor lumber or pipe storage requires an exposure assessment and a suitable assembly finish. Review the surface, drainage, and material protection rather than treating a yard as spare indoor floor.
Stock separation
Give different grades and lengths identifiable homes. Plan for partially opened bundles so loose material does not migrate into the neighboring product position during daily selection.
Choose cantilever racking for the right handling problem
Open-arm storage is useful when long goods need access without front posts interrupting the face. Selective rack is usually the stronger starting point for individually accessed pallet loads. Building-product inventories often justify separate systems rather than forcing bagged goods and lumber into identical positions.
Arm elevations should follow the product mix and truck capabilities, not a uniform spacing copied through every row. Retain room for the forks and the lifted bundle during placement. Any later level changes require review against the documented arrangement and loading limits.
Consider how receiving, order assembly, and dispatch share the same floor. A long-load staging lane should have a defined purpose and remain outside retrieval paths. Where floor space is constrained, compare fewer accessible rows with a denser arrangement that requires repeated stock movement.

Plan West Jordan cantilever rack placement
Send measurements showing overhead restrictions, usable aisle widths, and doors alongside a stock list. Include examples of partial bundles and offcuts. We can compare support geometry with access requirements and identify where a separate short-material position would make the overall layout more workable. (801) 942-0493.
