Discuss arm lengths, two-sided layouts, and access: 505-436-7469." lang: en --- Image: Cantilever Rack system inside a New Mexico warehouse (https://albuquerquepalletrack.com/assets/cantilever-hero-3ef0AkpP.jpg) Los Lunas, New Mexico # Cantilever Rack in Los Lunas, NM Cantilever rack in Los Lunas should follow an established long-material handling route before storage rows are assigned in an empty building. Rear uprights carry projecting arms without front columns, allowing lumber, bar, pipe, and tube to be lifted through an uninterrupted storage face. Building products operations at Los Lunas Industrial Park or around the I-25 / NM-6 interchange should distinguish full-bundle receiving from order picking. The same material may enter as a deep package and leave as individual lengths. That change affects arm projection, support spacing, containment, and the room operators need beside the row. (505) 436-7469 ## Cantilever Rack Planning Before Rows Are Assigned 1 ### Reserve the movement envelope Mark receiving doors, stock preparation areas, and outbound assembly space. Trace a loaded truck's approach to each proposed face, accounting for the material projecting beyond the handling equipment rather than the truck body alone. 2 ### Build the material schedule Group loads by length, depth, weight, and stiffness. Include sheet products and remaining short lengths, then identify which groups can genuinely share arm lengths and support spacing without compromising bearing. 3 ### Confirm the operating arrangement Review arm ratings, row orientation, and assigned stock locations before coordinating installation. Discuss identification and picking practices so partial bundles return to appropriate positions instead of accumulating wherever an arm is empty. ## Cantilever Storage Rack Support Decisions Choose arm lengths around package depth and the intended load position. Forks must place stock fully onto the supporting area and withdraw without catching adjacent material. Longer arms are not automatically preferable: their approved capacity and the space they occupy must match the proposed load and handling method. Upright spacing establishes the bearing points along a bundle. Flexible lumber, thin tube, and sheet packs may require different support arrangements from rigid bar. Short remnants also need a defined home; a row that supports incoming lengths may not support the pieces left after orders are assembled. Assess individual arm capacity together with the upright's total loading configuration. Weight may not divide evenly among supports, especially with mixed-length bundles or uneven packaging. Document the expected loading arrangement so staff can distinguish a permitted position from an empty arm that merely looks available. Single-sided storage can suit a boundary position, while double-sided rows place access on opposing faces. Indoor and outdoor applications require different exposure considerations, including wind and heat in yards. Forklift turning and side-loader travel should be evaluated using the actual long load. Selective rack offers individual pallet access but introduces front-column divisions that can interfere with continuous length storage.

We examine receiving, pack opening, and outbound assembly together. A storage position is less useful if retrieving its longest product repeatedly interrupts another aisle or occupies the only practical staging space. As a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., our supplying and installing work dates to 1997. We incorporate installation access into the layout conversation so equipment placement is considered alongside the movement of materials into the building. Our cantilever racking review distinguishes product access from apparent density. A double-sided row may hold material on both faces, but both aisles must remain usable. We compare the complete arrangement with perimeter storage and separate pallet positions before treating additional arm faces as additional working capacity.

The forklift enters the structure, and the floor holds more pallets per square foot than any other system.
