Herochu Efficient Horizontal Steel Plate Storage Racks: Streamline Metal Sheet Management for Industrial Workshops
For metalworking plants, manufacturing facilities, and warehouses handling steel plates, aluminum sheets, or stainless steel stock, disorganized storage leads to costly problems: bent materials, wasted space, and slow retrieval times that stall production. Herochu’s Efficient Horizontal Steel Plate Storage Racks eliminate these issues by combining heavy-duty durability, space-saving design, and instant accessibility—all tailored to your workshop’s unique needs. Starting at $3,660 and backed by CE, EU, and ISO 9001 certifications, these racks transform cluttered metal sheet storage into a streamlined, efficient process that protects your inventory and boosts team productivity.
Designed specifically for flat, large-format materials like steel plates, aluminum sheets, and galvanized stock, Herochu’s horizontal racks prioritize two critical industrial needs: preserving material integrity and maximizing available space. Unlike vertical storage systems that risk warping thin sheets or floor stacking that wastes vertical room, our horizontal design keeps metal flat and secure—preventing bending, scratching, or damage that can render expensive stock unusable. This isn’t just storage; it’s an investment in protecting your material assets while making the most of every square meter in your facility.
At the heart of the system’s efficiency is its innovative drawer design. Every rack features horizontal drawers with built-in wheels that are 100% extractable—meaning you don’t have to move other sheets to access the one you need. Whether you’re grabbing a single stainless steel sheet for a custom order or a bundle of aluminum stock for mass production, the drawers roll out smoothly, giving your team instant access. This eliminates the time wasted digging through stacked materials or repositioning heavy sheets, cutting labor time significantly and keeping production schedules on track. And with compatibility for cranes, jib cranes, transporter bridges, or vacuum lifters, loading and unloading becomes safer too—no more manual lifting of heavy steel plates that risk worker injury or material drops.
Durability is non-negotiable for industrial storage, and Herochu’s racks are built to withstand the toughest workshop conditions. Constructed from high-strength materials like iron and carbon steel, each layer supports up to 2 tons of weight—plenty of capacity for thick steel plates or dense aluminum bundles. For facilities with heavier needs, we offer custom loading capacity upgrades on demand, ensuring the rack grows with your inventory. Every surface is finished with a powder coating that resists corrosion, rust, and wear—critical for workshops exposed to moisture, chemicals, or heavy dust. This coating ensures the racks maintain their structural integrity for years, even in harsh industrial environments, making them a long-lasting solution for your storage needs.
Customization is key to Herochu’s design philosophy—we don’t force your workshop to adapt to a one-size-fits-all rack. The system comes in standard configurations of 2 to 8 layers, but we can customize up to 10 layers based on your vertical space and inventory volume. The distance between layers is adjustable too, ranging from 50 mm to 200 mm—perfect for storing sheets of different thicknesses, from thin aluminum foils to thick steel plates. Length options span 2000 mm to 3200 mm, easily accommodating standard industrial sheet sizes like 2500 x 1300 mm, with custom lengths available for non-standard stock. And for facilities that need flexibility, the racks support foldability, stackability, and detachability: if you relocate, expand, or reconfigure your workshop, you can easily move or adjust the system without replacing it entirely.
Beyond protecting materials and saving space, these racks enhance inventory control—a critical benefit for busy facilities. With selective access to each layer and drawer, you can organize sheets by material type, thickness, or project, making stocktaking faster and reducing the risk of misplacing valuable stock. For example, you can dedicate one drawer to stainless steel sheets for food-grade equipment, another to galvanized steel for outdoor projects, and a third to aluminum for lightweight components—ensuring your team always grabs the right material the first time. This level of organization also reduces waste: no more cutting extra material because the correct sheet was lost in a pile, or discarding bent stock that couldn’t be accessed properly.
Herochu’s Efficient Horizontal Steel Plate Storage Racks also integrate seamlessly with existing workshop equipment. The design works with forklifts for moving entire drawers (when needed) and pairs perfectly with our metal sheet forklift racks for facilities looking to expand their storage capacity further. Pivoting doors on select models add an extra layer of protection, keeping sheets secure from dust or accidental bumps while still allowing easy access. Whether you’re a small metalworking shop with limited space or a large manufacturing plant handling high-volume sheet stock, these racks adapt to your workflow—making storage a strength, not a bottleneck.
As with all Herochu products, these racks meet strict international standards. CE, EU, and ISO 9001 certifications ensure compliance with safety, quality, and performance regulations, giving you peace of mind that your storage system is reliable and safe for your team. This makes the racks suitable for global operations, whether your workshop is in Europe, Asia, or the Americas—consistent quality, no matter where you operate.
