Free design consultation: (410) 305-9766." lang: en --- Image: Cantilever Rack system inside a Maryland warehouse (https://baltimorepalletracks.com/assets/cantilever-hero-3ef0AkpP.jpg) Linthicum, Maryland # Cantilever Rack in Linthicum, Maryland Cantilever rack in Linthicum handles the freight that does not fit the air-cargo routine: long crates, tubes, rails and equipment that arrive in the BWI cargo district and need a place to wait. Arms extend from a column-free face, so odd lengths and shapes load directly from the aisle. (410) 305-9766 ## Oversize Freight on Cantilever Racking Air-freight support buildings near I-195 and I-695 often hold long crates and equipment briefly before onward transport. Leaving them on the floor eats cross-dock staging. A short cantilever racking run, double-sided where floor allows, holds those items off the floor while cross-dock lanes stay open. Air-freight timing also means items arrive without warning. Leaving one or two empty levels in the run gives the team a place for surprise oversize freight, so nothing has to sit in a door lane while space is found. Those open levels pay for themselves the first busy night they are used.

Grouping them by length on separate cantilever levels speeds up picking. Boxed long items such as shelving kits go on decked levels. ## Cantilever Rack Arms, Capacity and Spacing Arm length matches the deepest item. Arm and upright capacity are rated separately and sized from the heaviest load per level. Flexible items like conduit need closer uprights; stiff crates can span wider. Overhang past the end arms should stay limited. ## Flex Space and Clear Height Much of Linthicum is older flex space with modest clear heights. Long goods are mostly handled near forklift height, so three or four levels usually work. Overhead lights and ducts sometimes hang low; we measure to the lowest obstruction along the planned run. ## Truck Access in Tight Buildings Counterbalance forklifts with fork extensions handle moderate lengths. Very long items move better on a side-loader, which travels parallel to the rack in a narrow aisle. We size the aisle to your truck and longest load. ## Pharmaceutical Buildings and Cantilever Storage Rack Pharmaceutical distributors rarely store long product, but they do store long equipment and packaging materials. A small cantilever storage rack near maintenance or receiving keeps those items out of controlled storage areas. ## Short-Stay Cantilever Racking for Cross-Dock Freight Freight that stays a few hours does not need long-term storage, but it still needs to be off the floor. A cantilever rack near the cross-dock gives long crates a temporary home while the outbound truck is arranged. Because the front is open, the same truck can drop and pick without repositioning loads. That makes cantilever racking a practical fit for short-stay oversize freight. Keep a level free for unexpected arrivals, and treat the cantilever storage rack as a buffer, not a warehouse. ## Finishes and Overhead Clearance Indoor runs in flex buildings use standard painted steel. Arm caps protect crates and finished parts from marking. Before ordering, measure to the lowest light, duct or heater along the run. Long loads lifted to the highest arm must clear those obstructions with room to spare, so the measurement sets the usable height. If an obstruction sits only over part of the run, the levels can step down in that section. ## Pallet Systems and Getting Started Lot-controlled pallets fit a Linthicum pallet flow system (https://baltimorepalletracks.com/service-area/linthicum/pallet-flow-rack); a few very deep SKUs fit drive-in rack in Linthicum (https://baltimorepalletracks.com/service-area/linthicum/drive-in-rack).
