Why Salt Lake City Businesses Choose Cantilever Rack from Material Handling USA
Utah leads the nation in economic growth, with a booming tech sector and expanding manufacturing base. Efficient storage of long, bulky materials is critical for businesses across the region.
Salt Lake City, UT is home to a busy commercial and industrial sector, including lumber yards along the Wasatch Front, steel distributors, construction supply companies, aerospace component manufacturers at Hill AFB, and pipe and tubing suppliers. These businesses handle long, oversized materials that standard pallet racking simply cannot accommodate. Cantilever racking is the ideal solution for storing lumber, steel, pipe, tubing, sheet goods, and other irregularly shaped inventory.
Material Handling USA provides complete cantilever rack solutions to the Salt Lake City metro area. We design custom layouts based on your specific materials, load weights, building dimensions, and forklift access requirements. With a metro population of 1.2 million, the Salt Lake City market is one of our most active service areas for cantilever storage systems.
Unlike standard shelving or pallet rack, cantilever racking uses a column-and-arm design with no front uprights to obstruct loading. This open-face design lets you load and unload long materials with a forklift, overhead crane, or by hand from the front of the rack. Arms are adjustable in height to match your specific product dimensions.
Whether you operate a lumber yard in West Valley City, a steel distribution center near the Salt Lake Valley industrial corridor, or a construction supply warehouse anywhere in the Salt Lake City metro, we have cantilever rack systems sized and configured for your operation.

Cantilever Rack Buying Guide for Salt Lake City Businesses
Choosing the right cantilever system depends on what you store, how much you store, and how you access it.
Load weight per arm: Determine the heaviest load each arm will support. Light-duty arms handle 500 to 1,500 lbs, while structural heavy-duty arms can support 3,000 to 5,000+ lbs per arm. We engineer each system for your specific load requirements.
Arm length: Arms are available from 24 inches to 72 inches or longer. Choose arm length based on the width or depth of your stored materials. For Salt Lake City lumber yards, 48-inch arms are common for dimensional lumber bundles.
Column height: Cantilever columns range from 6 feet to 20+ feet tall. Your building clear height and forklift reach capacity determine the maximum practical height. Our team can survey your Salt Lake City facility to determine the optimal configuration.
Indoor vs. outdoor: For outdoor cantilever in Salt Lake City, we recommend galvanized finish to resist weathering. Hot-dip galvanized columns and arms withstand rain, snow, UV exposure, and temperature swings common in Utah.

What can I store on cantilever racks in Salt Lake City?
Cantilever racks are designed for long, bulky, and irregularly shaped items. Salt Lake City businesses commonly use cantilever racks for lumber, steel bar stock, pipe and tubing, sheet goods (plywood, drywall, sheet metal), furniture, carpet rolls, PVC conduit, and construction materials. Any item that doesn’t fit on standard pallet racks is a candidate for cantilever storage.
What is the difference between single-sided and double-sided cantilever rack?
Single-sided cantilever rack sits against a wall with arms extending from one side only. Double-sided cantilever has arms on both sides and is placed in open floor areas so materials can be loaded from either side. Double-sided systems are more common in Salt Lake City lumber yards and steel distributors where forklift access is available on both sides.
How long does cantilever rack installation take in Salt Lake City?
Most cantilever rack installations in Salt Lake City are completed in 1 to 3 days depending on the system size. A single row of 4 to 6 towers can typically be installed in less than a day. Larger systems with multiple rows, custom heights, or structural anchoring may require 2 to 3 days. We schedule installation to minimize disruption to your Salt Lake City operations.
