Cantilever Racking Solutions for Businesses in Oldham
Warehouses and industrial facilities across Oldham often need to store items that don’t fit standard pallet systems—such as timber, pipes, steel sections, or sheet materials. Traditional racking can make handling these items difficult and inefficient.
At Mowbray Workspace Solutions, I design and install cantilever racking systems specifically for long, bulky, or awkward loads—helping businesses store materials safely while maintaining easy access and organised layouts.
Cantilever racking is a storage system designed with horizontal arms extending from vertical columns, without front uprights obstructing access.
This design allows:
Easy loading and unloading of long items
Flexible storage for irregular shapes
Clear access from the front of the rack

When Is Cantilever Racking the Right Solution?
Cantilever racking is the best choice when:
You store long, heavy, or awkward items
Goods cannot be palletised easily
Easy access to individual items is required
You need a structured and safe storage system
If your operation mainly involves palletised goods, pallet racking may be more suitable. For bulk storage of uniform items, drive-in racking could be considered.
