Washington, KY | Layout & Install" url: https://louisvillepalletracks.com/service-area/mt-washington/cantilever-rack description: "Cantilever Rack priced by the position, not the pallet — delivery staged around your dock. Serving Highway 44 corridor. Call (502) 521-1485." lang: en --- Image: Cantilever Rack system inside a Kentucky warehouse (https://louisvillepalletracks.com/assets/cantilever-hero-3ef0AkpP.jpg) Mt. Washington, Kentucky # Cantilever Rack Systems in Mt. Washington, KY A mixed manufacturing-and-distribution floor fighting over the same square footage is the most common reason Mt. Washington warehouses call us. Cantilever Rack addresses that directly, reclaiming the positions a typical contractor and trade supply layout in this market never uses. We size the cantilever rack around your pallets, your lift trucks, and the clear height in your Highway 44 corridor building, factoring in arm length and capacity set by the bundles you handle. You get a drawing and a line-item price for the Highway 44 corridor site, not a rough estimate. Call (502) 521-1485 and we will start a Mt. Washington layout. (502) 521-1485 ## Why Mt. Washington Warehouses Work With Us Warehouses in and around Bardstown Road industrial tend to be constrained by something specific: limited clear height, tight columns, or a dock that will not take a full truck at once. Those details decide a Mt. Washington design, not a standard drawing. That is part of why cantilever rack fits Mt. Washington operations: single-sided runs along the wall, double-sided in open floor. A short design consult tells you quickly whether that tradeoff works for your SKUs, or whether another system carries more of the load in a Highway 44 corridor footprint. We also keep the Mt. Washington cantilever rack layout on file, so adding a bay next year or extending a row does not start from scratch.

Washington business district, Hebron Estates area. Contractor and trade supply Light manufacturing Building materials Local distribution ## How Cantilever Rack Works Arms with nothing in front of them, built for lumber, pipe, and anything a pallet can't hold. 1 ### 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. 2 ### 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. 3 ### 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. 4 ### 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 Every Mt. Washington cantilever rack project begins with the numbers: what you store, how heavy it is, what lifts it, and how tall the usable space is. That Mt. Washington conversation happens over the phone and usually takes about fifteen minutes. From there our design team produces a CAD cantilever rack layout showing positions, elevations, and aisle widths for your Mt. Washington floor plan, plus an itemized quote so you see cost per pallet position. Where it helps, we price a second configuration on the same plan, with single-sided runs along the wall, double-sided in open floor, so the tradeoff between density and access is a number instead of an opinion. Load ratings for each cantilever rack level are documented in the Mt. Washington drawing, not guessed in the field. Cantilever Rack freight is staged to fit Mt. Washington business district access. Experienced installation crews we schedule and manage build from the approved drawing, with the system anchored to the floor, aligned and capacity-tagged. We coordinate phasing around your Mt. Washington operation and keep one contact for later additions.
