Single Sided Cantilever Racking System
Single Sided Cantilever Racking System
Heavy-duty single sided cantilever racking system designed for long material storage including pipes, timber, steel profiles, and boards. Aceally provides customized cantilever rack solutions with adjustable arms, flexible configurations, and reliable industrial storage performance.
Single Sided Cantilever Racking System Overview
Aceally Single Sided Cantilever Racking System is designed for storing long, oversized, and irregular-shaped materials that cannot be efficiently stored with conventional pallet racking systems.
With an open-front structure, the system provides direct access for loading and unloading materials such as steel pipes, timber, aluminum profiles, boards, and other long products.
Unlike double-sided cantilever racks, single sided cantilever racking is mainly installed against walls or along warehouse boundaries, making it suitable for warehouses where storage access is required from one direction only.
Key Features of Single Sided Cantilever Racking System
01. Long Material Storage
Designed for products that exceed standard pallet dimensions, including pipes, profiles, timber, panels, and construction materials.
02. Wall-Side Installation
The single-sided configuration allows efficient use of warehouse wall space while maintaining convenient loading access.
03. Adjustable Storage Levels
Cantilever arms can be adjusted according to material height and storage requirements, providing flexible configurations.
04. Heavy Duty Structure
Manufactured from structural steel, the system is designed for industrial storage applications with demanding load requirements.
05. Customized Configuration
Height, arm length, spacing, and load capacity can be customized based on warehouse conditions and stored materials.
06. Easy Loading Access
The open-front design improves visibility and allows efficient handling by operators and forklifts.

Components of Single Sided Cantilever Racking System
A complete single sided cantilever racking system consists of several structural components working together to provide stable and flexible storage for long materials.
Upright Columns
Upright columns are the main vertical supporting structure of the cantilever rack. Their height and steel profile are selected according to required storage capacity, material weight, and warehouse conditions.
Cantilever Arms
Cantilever arms provide direct support for stored materials. Different arm lengths and capacities can be configured according to product dimensions and loading requirements.
Base Structure
The base provides stability for the complete rack structure and transfers the load from upright columns to the warehouse floor.
X&H Bracing System
Bracing components connect upright columns and improve overall rack rigidity, helping maintain structural stability during loading and unloading operations.
Applications of Single Sided Cantilever Racking System
Single sided cantilever racking is widely used in industries where long, heavy, or irregular-shaped materials need organized storage and easy access.
Steel & Metal Storage
Suitable for steel pipes, metal tubes, steel profiles, aluminum sections, and other long metal products requiring open-front storage.
Timber & Lumber Storage
Ideal for timber distributors and woodworking facilities storing boards, panels, wooden materials, and construction lumber.
Building Materials
Used for PVC pipes, construction materials, decorative panels, and other oversized products.
Manufacturing Facilities
Provides organized storage for machine components, production materials, spare parts, and long industrial products.
Single Sided vs Double Sided Cantilever Racking
Choosing between single sided and double sided cantilever racks depends on warehouse layout, available space, and loading requirements.
| Feature | Single Sided Cantilever Racking | Double Sided Cantilever Racking |
|---|---|---|
| Loading Access | One-side loading and unloading | Access from both sides |
| Installation Position | Installed against walls or warehouse boundaries | Installed in open warehouse areas |
| Space Requirement | Requires less floor space | Requires wider installation area |
| Suitable Application | Wall-side storage and limited space warehouses | High-density central storage areas |
| Best Choice For | Long materials requiring access from one direction | Operations requiring access from both sides |
How to Choose the Right Cantilever Racking System?
Selecting a suitable cantilever racking system requires consideration of the stored materials, warehouse conditions, and loading methods. Before designing the rack configuration, the following factors should be evaluated:
1. Material Dimensions
Consider the length, width, diameter, and shape of stored products. Long materials may require longer cantilever arms and suitable spacing between uprights.
2. Load Requirements
The rack structure should be selected according to product weight, bundle weight, and loading frequency to ensure safe operation.
3. Storage Height
Required storage height affects upright selection and overall rack configuration. Higher systems require careful consideration of stability and load distribution.
4. Handling Equipment
Loading methods such as manual handling, forklifts, or cranes will influence rack design and aisle requirements.
5. Warehouse Layout
Available wall space, aisle width, and floor conditions should be considered when planning the cantilever rack layout.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a single sided cantilever racking system?
A single sided cantilever racking system is a storage rack with arms extending from one side of the upright structure. It is mainly designed for long materials and is commonly installed against walls.
What products can be stored on cantilever racks?
Cantilever racks are commonly used for steel pipes, timber, aluminum profiles, boards, panels, construction materials, and other long products.
What is the load capacity of cantilever rack arms?
The load capacity depends on arm length, upright height, steel profile, spacing, and rack configuration. Aceally can customize the system according to different load requirements.
