Rackman Australia supplies and installs cantilever racking in Adelaide designed to handle everything traditional pallet racking can’t – from long lengths of timber and steel to bulky furniture, conduits, plasterboard, and pipe. With no front uprights, cantilever racks offer unimpeded access, making them the go-to solution for oversized and awkward items that demand a smarter approach.
Rackman provides tailored cantilever racking systems that meet the unique needs of local businesses, big or small.
We understand that your storage needs might differ depending on:
Our cantilever racking systems are engineered for strength, flexibility, and ease of use. Whether you’re storing lightweight PVC pipe or multi-tonne steel beams, we provide the right configuration to support your stock and streamline access.
Rackman offers cantilever systems in three main load classes, with single or double-sided access and indoor/outdoor finishes.
This is perfect for setups where manual handling is common, or where items are delicate or lightweight. It’s also a solid upgrade from makeshift shelving, helping businesses step up to safer, purpose-built storage without overcapitalising.
This category suits most Adelaide trade businesses who need forklift access to long items, particularly in multi-bay storage configurations.
Heavy duty racking is fully customisable to your space and load requirements. We can supply multi-level systems 4m+, built to suit your product dimensions and stacking needs.
Looking for a full warehouse storage setup? We also supply longspan shelving, vertical racking, and industrial racking to support all types of stock, from small parts to stacked cartons and flat sheet goods.
Our cantilever arms are fabricated from structural-grade steel, angled or fitted with end-stops to prevent load slippage. They’re adjustable in height, typically in 100mm increments, allowing each level to be spaced according to your stock. Arms are rated from 100kg up to 1,500kg per arm. And we can custom-fabricate for even heavier loads.
Each column is built for vertical and lateral load stability. Depending on your stock and layout, we offer single-sided (wall-mounted) or double-sided configurations (aisle-access). Upright columns are anchored to the slab and connected with horizontal and diagonal bracing to prevent deflection. Heights range from 2 metres to 6+ metres, and our engineering team ensures the right base and bracing structure for every install.
Rackman’s cantilever systems are fully modular. Start with two columns and expand as needed with additional bays or arms. Adjust spacing, add levels, or change duty class as your stock profile evolves. Our systems are compatible with future upgrades and expansion, keeping your investment working long-term.
Outdoor storage? No problem. Our hot-dip galvanised cantilever racks are weather-resistant, making them ideal for timber yards, pipe storage, or fabrication sites exposed to rain and sun. Zinc-coated components provide long-term protection against rust and corrosion.
For outdoor storage of drums, cables or coiled materials, consider our purpose-built cable racking or custom solutions for awkward items that need secure, vertical handling.
Without front posts, cantilever racks let you store extra-long materials without obstruction. From 3-metre metal lengths to 6-metre timber packs, the open-face design gives forklifts and staff direct access. Load horizontally across multiple levels to reduce wasted floor space and increase storage density.
Cantilever racking speeds up loading and unloading. Forklifts can quickly place or remove items without awkward manoeuvring, while lighter goods can be manually accessed from the ground. This makes the system ideal for high-turnover items or mixed stock.
Loose stock like pipes or steel bar can be hazardous when stacked on floors or leaned against walls. Cantilever racks eliminate this by keeping stock secure, accessible, and off the ground. This improves overall warehouse safety and reduces damage to goods.
In trade stores and supplier yards, cantilever racks don’t just store – they display. Create neat, organised rows of timber, pipe, or trim that help staff and customers locate stock at a glance. Painted arms, signage, or labels can all be added to make retrieval intuitive and fast.

Our systems range from light-duty (up to 100 kg per arm) to heavy-duty (1500 kg+ per arm). We’ll recommend a configuration based on your specific loads and handling method.
Absolutely. We supply hot-dip galvanised racks that resist rust, UV and rain, ideal for coastal or high-exposure areas like Port Adelaide, Lonsdale, or outer northern suburbs.
Typical rack heights range from 2m to 5m, depending on stock size and site clearance. We’ll help design a layout that maximises vertical space while staying safe for your forklifts or staff.
Yep! Our modular systems allow for additional bays, arms or height adjustments as your business grows. You can also convert a single-sided rack into a double-sided setup down the track.
Yes – we handle full installation across the greater Adelaide area and regional sites by request. We also provide engineering sign-off where needed for high-load or council-compliant installs.
