Cantilever Rack in Kent, WA
Aerospace suppliers in Kent must separate long tube and extrusion stock from palletized parts without spreading material across assembly access paths. Cantilever provides open-front storage for long material without a front beam obstructing the load. Arm capacity, support spacing and the way your equipment handles each bundle decide whether the proposed run will work.
For your Kent building, we review bundle lengths, weight distribution, support points, arm reach and handling-equipment clearances before proposing a layout. Start with a Free Design Consultation and compare the working plan before committing to new equipment.
Why Kent Warehouses Work With Us
Large warehouse footprints do not remove the need to protect outbound staging, separate replenishment traffic and reserve positions for seasonal inventory. Around Kent Valley, S 196th St and West Valley Hwy, the cantilever rack decision starts with how the building is used today: where loads arrive, which orders need immediate access and where staff or equipment share a route. Aerospace suppliers in Kent must separate long tube and extrusion stock from palletized parts without spreading material across assembly access paths.
third-party logistics, aerospace supply and refrigerated distribution all use space differently. Access around SR-167, I-5 and the Green River industrial corridor matters to the delivery or transfer plan, but the design still comes back to bundle lengths, weight distribution, support points, arm reach and handling-equipment clearances. During the free consultation we compare usable positions with operating space, and explain what changes if the inventory mix grows or a handling truck is replaced.
Seattle Pallet Racks is part of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co. Your Kent team has a point of contact for layout revisions, the written scope and scheduling questions. We work through practical details before material arrives, including where each delivery can be staged without blocking your dock. After handover, keep the approved drawing and contact us before changing loads, levels or the layout.

How Cantilever Rack Works in Kent
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
A cantilever rack project in Kent begins with a review of bundle lengths, weight distribution, support points, arm reach and handling-equipment clearances. We use building drawings and verified measurements to establish usable height, obstructions, column positions and access routes. For a site around SR-167, receiving windows and staging areas are included in that conversation so the installation plan is grounded in how your operation runs.
Columns, bases, arms and bracing are itemized. Single-sided runs and double-sided runs are compared against the space available for handling long loads. Arm levels follow bundle depth, while support spacing is checked against sag and the material supplier's guidance. Round stock needs appropriate retention; an arm lip is not a replacement for safe load placement.
You receive a layout, a counted storage or picking plan and an itemized scope that separates equipment, delivery and installation. New material is specified for any additional rack. Experienced installation crews we schedule and manage follow the agreed layout, and the rack is anchored to the floor. Our team handles the permit side for you.
Confirmation that bases are anchored to the floor, column alignment, arm elevations and load ratings are reviewed before material is placed. Outdoor use requires a separate review of exposure and site conditions. Work can be sequenced by agreed zones when the site allows it. Your Kent operations lead confirms which routes must stay open and when inventory may enter completed areas. The handover records the final configuration, operating limits and remaining actions, giving your team a practical reference for future changes rather than only a delivery receipt.
