Cantilever Rack in Springfield, IL
Cantilever rack holds long material on arms off a center column, with no front posts in the way. Lumber, pipe, tubing, conduit and sheet goods load from the side, and a forklift or side-loader can reach any length.
Building materials and lumber are a steady part of Springfield's industry, and that keeps cantilever in demand.
Lumber, Pipe and Building Materials
Arm length follows bundle depth. Arm spacing follows bundle length and stiffness, so stock does not sag between supports. Arm capacity follows the heaviest bundle. We size each from your product list.
Single-sided cantilever runs along a wall. Double-sided rows stand in the open and load from both sides.


Indoor and Yard Cantilever
Many building-materials businesses store long stock outside. Winter snow and ice make yard work slow, so we leave room between rows for a loader to clear. Indoors, cantilever can run nearly to the roof deck.
Around Springfield, cantilever shows up in light-industrial buildings off Industrial Ave in the Springfield Industrial Park and in contractor yards near the I-72 Riverton exit.
