Cantilever Rack in Tampa, FL

Cantilever rack exists because pallet rack has a front beam and long material doesn't care about pallets. Arms extend out from a column with no obstruction across the front, so lumber, pipe, tube, bar stock, sheet goods, and furniture load from the side and come off the same way, without lifting over anything.

Choose it whenever product length, not weight or SKU count, is what's driving the storage problem - the alternative is usually leaning bundles against a wall or floor-stacking them where forklifts have to work around them. Arm length, capacity, and column spacing get set by the bundles you actually handle, not a generic length.

We quote single-sided runs for a wall and double-sided runs for open floor, both with the layout attached so arm count and levels are settled before steel is ordered.

Tampa Pallet Racks is a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co. We start with the storage decision, not a list of steel. Your inventory profile, handling equipment, and available space tell us whether cantilever rack belongs in the layout. A free consultation gives your team a chance to compare the system with other rack types before choosing a direction.

From East Tampa and Adamo Drive to facilities serving Port Tampa Bay, receiving and dispatch space matter as much as the number of storage positions. We account for columns, usable height, staging, and forklift travel in the CAD drawing. The itemized quote explains what the rack includes and lets you compare storage capacity against the space left for daily work.

Delivery and installation planning follow the approved layout and your operating schedule. Ask us to review future additions at the same time, so a new lane or row has a planned place rather than taking over a working aisle.

Cantilever specification starts and ends with the load. We collect bundle dimensions, weight per bundle, and how material is handled - forklift forks, a side loader, or by hand off a cart - because that determines arm length, arm capacity, and how much clearance each level needs.

From there we set column height and spacing, choose straight or inclined arms, and decide whether lips are needed to keep round stock from rolling. Single-sided runs get positioned along a wall; double-sided runs get aisle dimensions matched to whatever's moving material in and out.

The quote itemizes columns, bases, arms, bracing, and anchors, with a CAD drawing showing the run, arm levels, and rated capacities per arm. Experienced installation crews we schedule and manage assemble bases anchored to the floor, plumb columns, brace the run, and set arm elevations to the drawing.

The result is arms you can reposition as inventory changes, capacity ratings for every level, and the floor space previously occupied by long material.
