Rule
number one of managing a warehouse is selecting the right
equipment to increase efficiency and safety. Virtually every
company selling products must maintain an inventory of some
kind, and that inventory has to be stored in a way that’s
easy to work with and reduces product damage. Ace Overstock
often consults customers about what they can do to get the
most out of their warehouse space and the best pallet
rack or other storage options for them.
Cantilever rack is an amazing invention for companies with
oddly shaped, bulky merchandise. Mattresses, sheet metal,
lumber, wooden planks, pipes—all of these and much more
are perfect matches for cantilever rack.
Cantilever rack operates on a “Christmas tree”
concept. The three main parts of cantilever rack are:
-
Uprights: vertical pillars running down the back of the
rack
-
Arms: sturdy “branches” extending out from the
uprights
-
Braces: hold everything on the cantilever rack together
The interesting and most functional part of cantilever rack
is: it has no supporting beams in the front. Since the front
is open, cantilever rack offers many advantages not found
in other rack configurations:
-
Loading merchandise is fast and easy.
-
You can immediately see what’s stored on the racks.
-
It can store just about anything, from box-shaped items
to auto body parts.
-
There’s plenty of clearance for handling the items.
-
It increases safety with sprinkler systems, employee welfare,
and product integrity.
-
It can be customized with additional arms and uprights.
Cantilever rack is one of the main items in stock at Ace Overstock,
and it’s affordable as well as versatile. Please call
