Frequently Asked Questions
Are these bar cradles suitable for all vertical storage racks?
The bar cradles are designed for use with vertical storage rack systems of compatible dimensions. Always check the cradle width and height against your existing uprights and beams, and ensure your rack has sufficient capacity for the intended loads.
How do I choose the right size of bar cradle?
Select the width to suit the length and quantity of material you need to store, and the height according to the typical stock size and how much vertical support is required. The available options provide combinations of 470 mm or 625 mm height with 790 mm or 1095 mm width.
Can these cradles be mixed and matched within the same rack?
Yes, different sizes can usually be used in the same rack run, provided they are compatible with your rack layout and load limits. This allows you to create dedicated sections for different materials and optimise the use of available space.
