Herochu Roll-Out Sheet Metal Racks | Roll-Out Racks for Flat Metal Storage & Heavy-Duty Steel Storage Systems
Factory-Customized from $5,500 to Match Your Exact Workshop
Every square foot of floor space in a modern fabrication shop carries a premium—and every scratched or misplaced sheet of steel, aluminum, or plate carries an even steeper hidden cost. The Herochu Roll-Out Sheet Metal Racks solve both problems in one engineered motion. Built around the high-value keywords “roll-out sheet metal racks,” “roll out racks for flat metal storage,” and “steel storage systems,” these heavy-duty units transform chaotic stacks into fully retractable, forklift-ready drawers that hold up to 5,000 lb each while reclaiming up to 70 % of your floor area.
Why warehouse managers choose Herochu
• 100 % roll-out drawers reveal the entire sheet face—no more top-down digging or risky side-loading.
• 5,000 lb rated slides per drawer (double-row cam followers + hardened shafts) deliver crane, magnet, or vacuum-lift access in seconds.
• Back-side loading clearance: top-only bracing and NO X-brace at the rear allow lift-truck insertion from either aisle—ideal for narrow bays.
• Modular bays bolt together in hours; expand from 6 to 12, 18, or 24 drawers without cutting concrete or welding steel.
• Custom pricing starts at $5,500—pay only for the length, height, and load rating your workflow demands.

HC-B6020-65 | 6 000 × 2 000 mm | 6 | 5 000 lb (2 268 kg) | 2 500 mm
Need 8, 10, or even 20 drawers? Prefer 3 000 mm depth for stainless off-cuts? Our parametric design software adjusts bay length, drawer pitch, and cradle angle in real time—no MOQ, no premium engineering fees.
Smart Safety & Ergonomics
Each drawer rides on sealed linear rails with dual mechanical hard-stops and a velocity damper that prevents uncontrolled roll-back. An integrated foot-pedal lock secures the drawer during overhead crane lifts, while the front-mounted pull bar keeps operators at OSHA-compliant standoff distances. Optional laser-curtain sensors halt electric drives if personnel cross the yellow safety line—an upgrade favored by Tier-1 automotive suppliers.
Space-Saving Architecture
Traditional cantilever racks require 4–5 m aisles to swing a full sheet; Herochu roll-outs function in 2.2 m aisles. By stacking vertically and retracting horizontally, you convert “air space” into productive storage. Users regularly reclaim enough floor area to install a new fiber-laser or press brake—equipment that generates revenue instead of rent.
Material Versatility Across Industries
Steel Service Centers – Color-coded drawers separate ASTM A36, AR400, and pickled & oiled stock by gauge and heat number.
Aluminum Extruders – Protect pre-anodized faces with HDPE-lined cradles; no fork-truck contact equals zero scratches.
Plate & Structural Fabricators – Store 6 m × 2 m × 25 mm plate in the same bay as 1 m × 1 m tool-steel die sets.
Job Shops & Maintenance Cribs – Consolidate shims, spacers, and fixture plates next to the CNC cell for point-of-use retrieval.
Electric Automation Package (Optional)
Upgrade any manual bay to the electric drawer-type board shelf system and watch cycle times fall by another 40 %. A 0.75 kW servo motor drives each drawer at 0.3 m/s; limit switches ensure ±2 mm repeatability. The HMI touchscreen supports recipe storage—select “Aluminum 5052 – 3 mm” and the correct drawer glides forward automatically. Safety light curtains, e-stops, and torque overload protection meet Category 3 PL “e” per ISO 13849-1.
Customization Workflow—Fast & Painless
- Upload Layout: Send a PDF, DWG, or smartphone photo of your existing bay.
- Receive 3-D Proposal: Within 24 hours our application engineers return a SolidWorks model, aisle clearance map, and ROI spreadsheet.
- Approve & Produce: Lead time 15–20 days for manual systems, 25–30 days for electric automation.
- Install & Commission: Pre-assembled modules arrive on steel skids; two technicians complete a 6-drawer bay in under 90 minutes. Optional start-up training and annual service contracts available worldwide.
