Cantilever Racking Design, Supply & Installation in Livingston
If the inventory you stock is bulky, long or irregularly shaped, Cantilever racking open-front access and heavy duty support could be the ideal option to store it safely, while enabling fast, efficient loading and picking. But how do you ensure cantilever racking is right for you? Here’s what to consider.
Start with your products
Cantilever racking is a brilliant option for storing timber lengths, piping, acrylic sheets, bulky car parts, bathtubs and more – all the sorts of items likely to get caught on the uprights of a pallet racking system. You’ll want to make sure your system has the load capacity to deal with your heaviest items, so start with you largest, bulkiest and weightiest products, then match arms, uprights and upright spacing to that. Talk to us for help.
Check your floors and anchoring
Cantilever uprights concentrate weight on small floor areas. Confirm your slab specification and anchoring plan with your supplier’s guidance. Reinforce the floor or adapt the design if needed. We can help you with this too.
Is your handling equipment a match?
Unless you’re planning on overhauling your pickers and loaders at the same time as your racking, you’ll want to make sure that your existing manual handling equipment is a match for the racking system you choose. Ideally, you want your Livingston cantilever racking system to bring the best out of your handling equipment and people. We’ll show you how.
Safety, training and inspections
UK rules require routine internal inspections plus yearly SEMA-approved checks. Your operators will also need to be trained on load notices and safe loading practices.
New vs used systems
Used cantilever racking in Livingston can be brilliantly cost-effective as long as components are compatible and structurally sound. To make sure that’s the case, you’ll want to have any second-hand system professionally inspected. As SEMA-approved installers, and inspectors, we’ll make sure that any used cantilever racking system we supply is safe and compliant.
