Cantilever Racking Solutions for West Valley City Warehouses

West Valley City is Utah's second-largest city and a major industrial hub, with significant warehouse and distribution activity concentrated along the I-215 and Bangerter Highway corridors. The city's central location within the Salt Lake Valley makes it a preferred address for regional distribution operations.

Not all Cantilever Racking suppliers understand the Mountain West market. Rocky Mountain Warehouse Solutions is built around it — we know the facilities, the contractors, and the code requirements across the region including West Valley City.

Cantilever racking is purpose-built for storing materials that do not fit on standard pallet rack: long lengths of pipe, tubing, lumber, bar stock, sheet metal, and furniture. Without vertical column obstructions between storage positions, cantilever arms provide full-length access to materials of any size. Our systems feature heavy-duty steel columns, adjustable arms at 3-inch increments, and optional brace sets for seismic zones. Available in single-sided and double-sided configurations from light-duty through structural grade, cantilever racking is the definitive solution for long material storage challenges. The adjustability of cantilever systems makes them ideal for facilities storing a wide variety of material lengths and profiles. Arms can be repositioned at any time without tools. Simply adjust the arm spacing to accommodate lumber bundles of different lengths, or reconfigure a bay entirely when your product mix changes. Double-sided configurations allow loading and picking from both sides of the aisle, maximizing storage density in facilities with sufficient material depth on each side. Rocky Mountain Warehouse Solutions designs cantilever systems for building materials distributors, steel service centers, lumber yards, plumbing supply houses, furniture warehouses, and industrial manufacturing plants throughout the Mountain West. Every project includes a layout drawing, load capacity engineering, and installation by our experienced crews. Outdoor galvanized systems are also available for open-yard applications.

Cantilever Racking is especially valuable for Lumber and millwork in West Valley City, where companies need dependable systems for Furniture and cabinet storage. Rocky Mountain Warehouse Solutions helps businesses plan, install, and optimize systems that support long-term warehouse performance.

We work with companies across Salt Lake County and nearby service areas to deliver practical, durable solutions built for industrial environments.

Technical Specifications & Buying Guide

Cantilever racking is specified by column height, arm length, arm capacity, and base configuration. Light-duty roll-formed cantilever is rated from 500 to 2,000 lbs per arm and is suitable for lighter products like furniture, PVC pipe, and aluminum extrusions. Heavy-duty structural cantilever uses hot-rolled steel arms and columns rated from 2,000 to 8,000+ lbs per arm for heavy steel bar, structural lumber, and industrial pipe. Column heights typically range from 8 to 20 feet, with arm lengths from 18 to 48 inches for standard systems and custom lengths available for special applications.

Single-sided cantilever is anchored to a wall or freestanding with a braced base, storing material on one face only. Double-sided systems are freestanding with a shared column and arms extending in both directions, effectively doubling storage capacity per row of columns. Double-sided systems require adequate floor anchor points for stability and are designed for the combined load of both arm faces. For facilities in Utah and other Mountain West states with seismic requirements, brace kits and anchor bolt engineering are included as standard on systems above a certain height and load threshold.

Load distribution across arms is an important design consideration. Material should be stored on a minimum of three arms to prevent point loading and potential arm deflection. When storing material that is shorter than the total bay width, dividers or arm stops prevent material from sliding to one end. For mixed-length storage, tapered arm configurations or adjustable arm supports allow efficient use of the full column height. Our design team accounts for all of these factors in the layout and specification process.
