Compare row footprints and bundle support.

Supporting arms attach to uprights, leaving the front free of columns so crews can load lumber, pipe, tube, bar, and sheet material across several supports. The useful starting point is the bundle, not the height of an empty wall. Its depth determines the arm reach, its weight affects capacity, and its length influences upright spacing. Cantilever storage rack can organize mixed dimensions without forcing every item into a rectangular pallet opening. (616) 344-5683 ## Cantilever rack choices before filling a building Older Grandville plants with 18–24 feet of building height need measured usable clearance rather than assumptions based on the roofline. Arm elevations must allow room to lift a load free, while the handling vehicle must reach those elevations with the intended bundle. More levels are not always more usable storage. For a tenant fitting out a shell, a single-sided wall row may preserve a central assembly area. A double-sided arrangement can serve two working aisles when floor depth allows it. Compare both using the complete base footprint and loaded arm projection, not only the upright centerline.

Open arms offer a different loading geometry. Keeping palletized fittings nearby in their own system can support order assembly without asking one structure to handle incompatible load shapes. Chicago Drive industrial buildings and wholesale spaces along 44th Street West can combine receiving, assembly, and dispatch in one floor area. For building-product bundles, the layout should keep the longest pick clear of packing benches. I-196 access does not eliminate the need to reserve a workable unloading area inside the property. Single-sided rows for perimeter storage Two-face access where working aisles fit Support spacing based on product stiffness Image: Cantilever warehouse racking holding steel tubing (https://grandrapidspalletrack.com/assets/cantilever-2b-G7pQApUm.jpg) Image: Cantilever rack storing lumber and wood products (https://grandrapidspalletrack.com/assets/cantilever-3b-HMeRbmPP.jpg) ### Indoor rows and winter receiving Light-assembly and distribution tenants near Prairie Street may prefer indoor storage but still move exposed bundles through winter receiving areas. Discuss wet packaging, snow carried in on loads, and outdoor staging separately from the indoor row specification. Outdoor installations need an exposure and finish review before components are selected. Building-product wholesale operations Consumer-brand assembly spaces Mixed distribution and fabrication buildings ## How cantilever rack dimensions become a layout Four checks connect the storage drawing to the equipment and material that will use it. 1 ### List handling units Distinguish full incoming bundles from partial picks. Include strapping, spacers, and any load overhang in the dimensions supplied for review. 2 ### Match depth and rating Choose an arm length that supports the specified bundle depth. Confirm the load on each supporting arm and the combined demand placed on each upright. 3 ### Allow turning room Plot the forklift with the longest product aboard, including the turn from receiving. Evaluate a side-loader by its actual operating dimensions rather than a generic aisle allowance. 4 ### Set the installation scope Review new components, row locations, arm levels, and assembly access together. Experienced installation crews we schedule and manage carry out the agreed installation sequence. ## Recent Installations Racking projects completed for warehouses across West Michigan.
