Storage racks for steel sheets measuring 1500×3000 or 3500mm for 3t sheets

Reclaim Your Workshop: The Herochu 1500x3000mm & 3500mm Steel Sheet Rack System

For fabricators, manufacturers, and workshop managers, the chaos of storing 1500x3000mm or 3500mm steel sheets is more than an inconvenience—it’s a constant drain on time, safety, and your bottom line. Piles of sheet metal leaning against walls, precarious stacks on wooden pallets, and the endless, frustrating search for the right plate are symptoms of a workspace held back by its own infrastructure. This disorganization isn’t just messy; it’s expensive.

Herochu was founded on a simple, powerful principle: your storage system should be an engine of productivity, not a bottleneck. We engineered our Heavy-Duty Sheet Metal Storage Racks not just to hold your materials, but to transform your entire operational workflow. Starting at $3,099 and fully customizable to your unique space, this is more than a rack—it’s a strategic investment in a smoother, safer, and more profitable future.

The Herochu Difference: A Paradigm Shift in Sheet Storage

Traditional vertical racking or floor stacking creates a host of problems. You fight gravity every time you need a sheet from the bottom of a pile. You sacrifice vast swathes of your precious floor real estate. You risk damaging expensive materials and, more importantly, endangering your team.

The Herochu system flips the script with its revolutionary horizontal storage design. By storing sheets horizontally in dedicated, stackable cassettes, we eliminate the core frustrations of sheet metal handling.

Unlock Vertical Potential, Liberate Floor Space:
Your most valuable asset is your floor space. Every square meter occupied by clutter is a square meter that can’t be used for a new CNC machine, an assembly station, or simply for clear, safe movement. Our racks are engineered to maximize your vertical cube. With a stackable design that can safely reach up to 20 feet in height, you convert unused airspace into a highly organized, dense storage library. This means you can store more material in less area, effectively expanding the capacity of your existing workshop without pouring a new foundation.

The End of the Treasure Hunt: Instant Sheet Retrieval:
Imagine needing a specific 3-ton sheet of 1500x3000mm steel. In a traditional setup, this could involve moving other sheets, using crowbars, and a significant amount of manual labor—a 15-minute ordeal that halts production.

With Herochu, it’s a two-minute job. Our integrated Cassette System features strategic, precision-engineered divots. A forklift operator can simply slide the forks into these divots, lift the entire stack of sheets slightly, and effortlessly slide out the exact sheet required from the side. No depalletizing. No struggling. This seamless process slashes retrieval time, meaning your team spends its hours on value-added fabrication, not on logistical puzzles. This direct translation of saved time into saved money lowers your operational costs with every sheet accessed.

Engineered for Uncompromising Performance: A Deep Dive into the Features

A Herochu rack is defined by its robust construction and intelligent features. We don’t use flimsy materials or complex assembly processes. Every component is designed for strength, simplicity, and longevity.

1. The Cassette: The Heart of the System (5,000 lb & 3,000 lb Capacity)
This is where the magic happens. Each cassette is a heavy-duty frame engineered to cradle your sheets.

• Herculean Strength: Our primary cassettes boast a 5,000 lb capacity, with robust options available for 3,000 lb loads, comfortably handling your 3-ton sheet requirements.

• Effortless Divot Design: The strategically placed divots aren’t an afterthought; they are the key to the smooth loading and unloading process, guiding your forklift forks for perfect engagement every time.

• Horizontal Stability: By supporting the sheet across its entire width, the cassette prevents the bowing, bending, and warping that can occur in vertical storage or uneven piles.

2. The Framework: 5-Inch Tube Supports and Bolt-Together Design
The skeleton of the rack is built around massive 5-inch tubular steel supports. This isn’t just for show; this girth provides the immense structural integrity needed to support tons of weight, both dynamically during forklift operations and statically over years of service. Our simple bolt-together design means two things for you:

• Customizable Configuration: You are not locked into a one-size-fits-all setup. The bolt-together system allows you to adjust shelf heights as your inventory needs change. Storing thicker plate this month? Adjust the cassettes in minutes.

• Straightforward Assembly: You won’t need a team of engineers and specialized equipment to erect your rack. The intuitive design allows for a faster, safer assembly process, getting your system operational sooner.

3. The Safety Ecosystem: Pins, Stackability, and Structural Integrity
At Herochu, safety is not a feature; it’s the foundation. We engineer protection for your materials, your team, and your investment.

• Safety Pins – Your Visual Guardian: Who doesn’t want to be safe? Our safety pins serve a dual, critical purpose. Primarily, they physically lock the cassettes in place, preventing any accidental dislodgement. Secondly, they act as a clear, visual capacity guide. When a pin is inserted at a certain level, it provides an immediate, at-a-glance reference for your operators, ensuring loads are never exceeded.

• Secure Stackability: The ability to stack racks up to 20 feet isn’t just about space; it’s an exercise in engineered stability. The interlocking design of our 6′ and 8′ racks ensures that the entire structure acts as a single, unified unit, resistant to shifting or swaying.

• A Safer Shop Floor: By getting sheets off the floor and onto a secure steel frame, you immediately eliminate trip hazards and reduce the risk of sheets tipping over. An organized shop is a safe shop. With materials clearly stored and easily accessible, the workflow becomes predictable and less prone to accidents.

The Tangible Return on Investment: More Than Just a Rack

When you invest in a Herochu system, you’re not just buying metal; you’re buying efficiency. The benefits cascade through your entire operation.

• Smart Inventory Management: With sheets stored systematically by grade, thickness, or size, you gain immediate visual control over your inventory. This “at-a-glance” knowledge reduces costly over-ordering, prevents project-crippling shortages, and eliminates the downtime spent hunting for missing materials.

• Protect Your Material, Protect Your Profit: Bent, scratched, or rusted sheet metal is wasted capital. Our racks keep your stock flat, separated, and organized, drastically reducing material damage and waste. You use what you buy, protecting your profit margins on every project.

• A Foundation for Growth: The customizable and modular nature of the Herochu system means it is designed to grow with you. As your business expands and your material needs evolve, your storage system can adapt right alongside it, making it a long-term asset that supports your success for years to come.
