Cantilever Racking

Sturdy Storage Solutions For Heavy, Long Or Variable Length Loads

A Heavy-Duty handling and storage solution for long or heavy products.

 

Our unique design features include heavy-duty click-fit connection arms, that are hooked vertically into the upright, creating a flexible position that does not require bolting in place. The hooking arms are designed for easier storage management and to prevent damage to the support arm and upright.

 

Cantilever racking consists of upright columns with one or two horizontal beams at the base to provide stability. A series of arms are attached to the uprights using our Easy-Click system, on which the load is placed. Loads can be stored on one or both sides of the racking.

 

We do not compromise on the strength of our structures, using only the highest quality materials sourced in the UK.

Specifications

Space Saving

Easily configurable to adjust to different heights.

 

Versatile

Load capacity per arm is 1000kg.

 

Fast & Easy To Assemble

Easy-Click arms are designed to securely lock onto the uprights without requiring bolts.

 

Safety Features

Horizontal and vertical pivoting arms protect the framework, preventing damaged caused by machinery.

 

Quality
NP Structures racking is designed to and exceeds FEM standards*.

 

*On recent tests at the University of Salford - School of Science, Engineering & the Environment - Commercial Enterprise Unit, our racking arm not only met the FEM requirements but exceeded them.

Unique Design Features

Our Easy-Click arm system allows you to connect an arm to the column without bolting or complicated fixing plates. 

Designed to simply slot in and lock down to save valuable time.

Heavy-Duty Cantilever Racking

 

Our heavy-duty cantilever racking is designed to effectively store heavy loads manoeuvred by both automatic and manual handling systems. Cantilever racking is suitable for a variety of load units, and is the best storage system for plastic tubing, timber, PVC extrusions, metal profiles and all other long products.

 

Unique design features include heavy-duty Easy-Click connection arms, that hook vertically into the upright, creating a flexible position that does not require bolting in place. The hooking arms are designed for easier storage management and to prevent damage to the support arm and upright.

 

Although racking is adjustable, once the beams are slotted into position in the frame uprights, an 

inter-locking structure of great strength and rigidity is maintained. 

 

Our cantilever racking has been designed to fit with our PVC roofing and rack cladding systems, so that the racking forms the structural element of a building, this produces a low-cost pop-up warehouse solution.

Easy-Click System

 

Our Easy-Click arm system allows you to connect an arm to the column without bolting or using complicated fixing plates. Simply slot in and pivot the arm down this save valuable time when the racks need configuring for different products.

 

The design of the locking system will not allow the arm to disengage until it has been lifted up above 45 degrees from its fitted position, this is an added safety feature stopping arms being disconnected accidentally.

 

Our Easy-Click system also gives extra protection to the rack columns from forklift collision as it acts as a pivot moving upwards and sideways to absorb any impact and saving expensive repair costs.

Quality Assured

 

Our Racking systems comply to the following Standards;

FEM Code of practice for the design and use of cantilever racking systems.

Physically Tested at University of Salford, School of Science, Engineering & the Environment, Commercial Enterprise Unit for Bending Tests and Shear Tests to determine structural performance to FEM standards.

Superior Benefits

Our Racking systems offer a wide range of benefits for every business. Including;

Fully Modular System – Easily extended, relocated or reduced.

Faster Installation Time - Easy-Click arms removes the requirement for bolting during installation and adjustment.

Maximise Storage Space - High storage capacity.

Not a Pin & Cotter system - No missing pins or unusable arms.

Integrated Removable End Stop Sockets.

High-Strength And Versatile

Our standard arms are capable of over 1000kg per arm and each upright has been designed to take a maximum load of 5,000kg per side (10,000kg per double sided column).

 

Each load must be supported by at least two arms. Products may protrude from the sides of both arms by up to 50% of the horizontal distance between adjacent arms. Our columns have variable spacing options, giving you even more storage solutions.

Optimum Warehouse Space

Warehouses are typically laid out with single and double-sided cantilever racking for best use of warehouse space.


The columns and bases are manufactured from heavy duty universal beams.

 

Arms can be fitted to either side of the columns forming double or single sided racks, with height adjustment of 125mm intervals. 

 

Our standard arms are capable of 1000kg per arm and each upright has been designed to take a maximum load of 10,000kg per column (when used as a double).
