The structure of a cantilever rack
The cantilever rack consists of rack stands and cantilevers. The rack stand consists of the stand itself, the stand feet, longitudinal connectors and at least one diagonal brace. The cantilevers are bolted to the rack stand.

Cantilever racks – components
Rack stand with stand foot
The main component of the cantilever rack is the single- or two-sided rack stand with one stand foot. It is anchored to the floor. The size and design are dependent on the required load and the static requirements. The hole perforations for mounting the cantilevers extend to the top storage level. The standard height spacing is 100 mm and serves the purpose of easy adjustment of the shelf height. Other distances are possible on request.

Cantilevers
The cantilevers are bolted to the rack stand. The construction of the cantilevers is dependent on the load. The bigger the profile, the greater the possible load-bearing capacity.
Diagonal brace
At least one diagonal brace with adjustable turnbuckles is required for each rack. For normal loads this bracing is sufficient on every fifth or sixth bay.

Longitudinal connectors
The longitudinal connectors act as spacers between the stands. The length of the longitudinal connectors is governed by the type of product stored.
Cantilever racks – main accessories
Rounding of the feet
The rounding serves the purpose of protecting personnel (the shins, for example, are protected by this) and vehicle tyres.

Roll-off prevention devices
Roll-off prevention devices are important for keeping round products securely on the cantilevers. The roll-off prevention devices can be supplied in different versions and heights.
Bridging arms
Cantilever racks serve the purpose of storing long products. Bridging arms are elements that are screwed between the cantilevers, enabling the storage of pallets.

Shelf cover
To make utilisation of the rack more flexible, we offer you various versions of the shelf cover. The covers are either laid only on the cantilevers or they are laid on bridging arms mounted between the cantilevers. Particle boards, gratings or grid floors are possible covers.
Storage labelling
Two important aspects need to be considered to provide customer-oriented labelling: Position of labels and shelf position numbering.
Position of labels
The labels on the rack are not always easily visible. To ensure good visibility, we help with rack-specific label holders.
Shelf position numbering
In particular if you store rods, pipes, plates etc. in your warehouse, it is important to maintain an overview. We offer you correct numbering to meet your individual requirements.
Entry guards and guide rail
If required, the guide rail provides industrial trucks with lateral guidance. The entry guard can only be used in combination with the guide rail to allow the truck to smoothly enter the aisle.
Collision guard
The collision guard is available L-shaped or U-shaped to protect two or three sides. It is mounted to the outer rack support of each aisle. (acc. to the requirements of the German BGR 234, the height is at least 300 mm)
Cantilever racks – important planning parameters
When talking about cantilever racks, one often refers to the axial dimension. The axial dimension is measured centre to centre of two cantilevers. The oversize of long material reaching over the last cantilever is limited to half of the axial length. At a given axial dimension of 1000 mm, this means the maximum allowed oversize is 500 mm.
