Cantilever Rack in Bonner Springs, KS
Building materials near K-7 can include long lumber, pipe, and bundled stock that cannot be treated as ordinary pallets. Balanced supports and handling approach clearance must be settled before a run is placed beside dock staging. We identify load length, bundle weight, support points, and the equipment used to lift the material before setting column spacing. A single-sided run may fit a wall; an open-floor run may need access on both sides. Arm ratings and the total column load are separate checks, and mixed bundle lengths should not be balanced on assumptions. Cantilever Rack is evaluated against the way your Bonner Springs inventory moves, not just the available square footage.

Why Bonner Springs Warehouses Work With Us
The I-70 and K-7 interchange, Kansas River industrial area, and nearby Edwardsville corridor put bulk storage beside freight and cross-dock movements. Product that leaves immediately should not be treated like reserve stock held through several shipping cycles. We separate those dwell times in the layout and preserve trailer unloading space. Building-material loads add another question: the clear approach for long bundles must coexist with the pallet staging route rather than replace it.
We identify load length, bundle weight, support points, and the equipment used to lift the material before setting column spacing. A single-sided run may fit a wall; an open-floor run may need access on both sides. Arm ratings and the total column load are separate checks, and mixed bundle lengths should not be balanced on assumptions. The local plan also accounts for access along the I-70 and K-7 freight interchange, delivery space, and the difference between a receiving window and a storage window. We ask your team to confirm those constraints from the building information and daily schedule.
As a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., we put the layout, material list, and installation scope in front of you together. You get a free design consultation, an itemized quote, and installation teams we manage, with one contact for revisions, scheduling, and replacement parts. We explain the tradeoffs before the purchase and keep the approved configuration available for later changes.

How Cantilever Rack Works
Arms with nothing in front of them, built for lumber, pipe, and anything a pallet can't hold.
Columns and anchored bases
Upright columns sit on bases anchored to the floor. Base depth is set by load and arm length so the run stays stable even under an off-center pick.
Arms at adjustable heights
Arms bolt or pin into the column at set increments and move as your product mix changes. Straight arms suit boxed goods; inclined arms with a lip hold round or loose stock in place.
Column spacing against sag
Spacing between columns is set so bundles don't sag between arms. A common starting rule places arms about half the load length apart, with the ends overhanging evenly.
Single-sided or double-sided
Single-sided runs go against a wall. Double-sided runs stand in open floor and load from both faces, doubling capacity per base without doubling the footprint.
What a Cantilever Rack Project Includes
For this Bonner Springs project, the first discussion covers building materials inventory, access near Bonner Springs Business Park, and the building information you provide. We identify load length, bundle weight, support points, and the equipment used to lift the material before setting column spacing. A single-sided run may fit a wall; an open-floor run may need access on both sides. Arm ratings and the total column load are separate checks, and mixed bundle lengths should not be balanced on assumptions.
Cantilever specification starts and ends with the load. We collect bundle dimensions, weight per bundle, and how material is handled - forklift forks, a side loader, or by hand off a cart - because that determines arm length, arm capacity, and how much clearance each level needs.
From there we set column height and spacing, choose straight or inclined arms, and decide whether lips are needed to keep round stock from rolling. Single-sided runs get positioned along a wall; double-sided runs get aisle dimensions matched to whatever's moving material in and out.
The quote itemizes columns, bases, arms, bracing, and installation, with a CAD drawing showing the run, arm levels, and rated capacities per arm. Installation partners anchor bases, plumb columns, brace the run, and set arm elevations to the drawing.
The result is arms you can reposition as inventory changes, capacity ratings for every level, and the floor space that long material used to occupy.
Before delivery is committed, we review the receiving window, unloading responsibilities, and available staging area with your team. The approved layout and component list are used to agree the installation sequence; a phased approach is assessed against your shipping schedule rather than promised automatically. Any changes to pallet weights, handling equipment, or inventory mix are reviewed before loading the completed system. Keep the configuration and capacity information with the operating team so later beam moves or added levels are checked against the rated arrangement.
