Installation and Maintenance of Warehouse Cantilever Racking

When it comes to setting up warehouse cantilever racking, precise measurements and a good understanding of your inventory are key. You will need some heavy-duty tools like power drills, wrenches, and levels to get the job done right. Each column and its strong arms need to be anchored securely to handle heavy loads, while the horizontal braces keep everything in place.

After installation, regular maintenance is a must. You need to inspect the bolts, arms, and braces at scheduled intervals, and take immediate action if there is any damage or corrosion. Sticking to these maintenance rituals will ensure that your racks last longer and keep your inventory safe and sound.
