Herochu Roll Out Sheet Metal Storage Rack: Transform Industrial Storage with Safety, Accessibility, and Space Optimization

The Cost of Poor Sheet Metal Storage (And How Herochu Fixes It)

Most industrial facilities rely on outdated methods to store large sheet metal: stacking sheets on the floor, leaning them against walls, or using fixed shelving that forces workers to shift heavy loads to access one sheet. These approaches create four costly problems that eat into productivity and profits:

First, wasted space. Floor stacking or wide fixed shelves consume valuable square footage—facilities often leave 40-60% of vertical space unused, forcing them to either limit inventory or invest in expensive expansions. For warehouses in urban areas or growing operations, this space waste translates to lost revenue and constrained growth.

Second, slow material retrieval. With fixed storage, workers spend hours moving 500+ pound sheets to reach the one they need—wasting time that could be spent on fabrication or production. A single delayed retrieval can hold up an entire production line, costing hundreds in hourly downtime.

Third, safety risks. Manual lifting of heavy sheets leads to back strains, muscle injuries, or dropped materials that cause workplace accidents. OSHA reports that material handling injuries cost U.S. businesses over $15 billion annually—risks that outdated storage amplifies.

Fourth, material damage. Scratching, bending, or denting sheet metal during handling or storage ruins valuable inventory—especially high-grade steel or aluminum, which can’t be reused once damaged. This waste adds up to thousands in replacement costs yearly.

Herochu’s Roll Out Sheet Metal Storage Rack addresses all four issues with intentional design. Its vertical stacking maximizes space, roll-out drawers eliminate manual shifting, heavy-duty construction reduces injury risks, and organized storage protects materials—turning these pain points into competitive advantages.

Key Advantages: Why Herochu’s Roll Out Sheet Metal Storage Rack Stands Out

Herochu’s Roll Out Sheet Metal Storage Rack isn’t just a storage solution—it’s a tool to streamline your entire operation. Every feature is engineered to save time, space, and money while keeping your team safe:

1. Optimized Space: Vertical Stacking, Compact Footprint

Unlike floor stacking that spreads sheets across the warehouse, Herochu’s rack uses vertical space to store more material in less area. A single 10-foot-tall rack can hold 8-12 layers of sheet metal—enough to replace 200 square feet of floor storage with a 50-square-foot footprint. This frees up floor space for additional equipment, workstations, or inventory, eliminating the need for costly facility expansions. For small fabrication shops or crowded warehouses, this space savings is a game-changer.

2. Effortless Access: 100% Roll-Out Drawers

The rack’s signature roll-out shelves (or drawers) let workers access any sheet without moving surrounding materials. Each drawer slides open smoothly—even when loaded with 5,000 pounds of steel—thanks to high-grade bearings that reduce friction. A single worker can extend a drawer, retrieve the exact sheet they need, and close it in under a minute—cutting retrieval time by 70% compared to fixed storage. No more waiting for a team to shift loads; just quick, direct access that keeps production lines moving.

3. Enhanced Safety: Minimize Manual Labor and Injury Risks

Herochu’s design eliminates the need for manual lifting of heavy sheets. The roll-out drawers bring materials to waist height, so workers don’t have to bend, reach, or lift 500+ pounds—reducing strain injuries by 80% or more. The rack’s heavy-duty steel frame (built to withstand industrial use) keeps drawers stable even when fully extended, preventing tip-overs or shifting loads. For teams prioritizing OSHA compliance or reducing workers’ compensation claims, this safety focus is invaluable.

4. Reduced Material Damage: Organized, Protected Storage

Scratched or bent sheet metal is useless for precision fabrication—Herochu’s rack keeps materials safe. Each drawer holds sheets securely, with optional protective linings (available as an upgrade) to shield delicate surfaces from scratches. The vertical orientation prevents bending, and the ability to sort sheets by size, type, or project means workers don’t have to dig through piles—reducing damage by 90% compared to floor stacking. For facilities using high-cost materials like stainless steel or aluminum, this protection saves thousands in replacement costs yearly.

5. Forklift Compatibility: Streamline Loading/Unloading

All Herochu Roll Out Sheet Metal Storage Racks are designed for forklift use—critical for handling heavy sheets. The racks feature top bracing (no X-bracing in the back), allowing forklifts to load materials directly from the rear of the unit. This eliminates the need for manual unloading or secondary staging areas; forklift operators can move sheets from delivery trucks straight into the rack, and from the rack straight to fabrication machines. For high-volume facilities, this cuts handling time by 50% and reduces the risk of damage during transfers.

6. Durability: Built for Industrial Longevity

These racks aren’t just strong—they’re built to last. Made with heavy-duty structural steel (thicker gauge than standard storage racks), they withstand daily use in harsh industrial environments: temperature fluctuations, humidity, and frequent forklift interactions. The bearings are sealed to prevent dust or debris buildup, ensuring smooth operation for 10+ years. Herochu’s strict quality control (backed by ISO 9001 certification) means every rack is tested for load capacity, stability, and durability before shipping—no shortcuts, no premature failures.

Technical Specifications: Standard Models & Customization for Your Workshop

Herochu offers a range of standard Roll Out Sheet Metal Storage Racks to fit common industrial needs, plus full customization to match your unique workshop layout, material sizes, and load requirements.

Standard Model Highlights

Load Capacity: Up to 5,000 pounds per rack (with even weight distribution across drawers), enough to handle thick steel plates, large aluminum sheets, or other heavy flat materials.

Drawer/ Shelf Count: 4-12 roll-out units per rack (varies by model), with each drawer sized to fit standard sheet dimensions (e.g., 4’x8’, 5’x10’).

Dimensions: Standard widths range from 4’ to 8’ (to fit common sheet sizes), depths from 3’ to 5’ (for stable placement), and heights from 6’ to 12’ (to maximize vertical space).

Forklift Access: Rear-loading design (no back X-bracing) for easy forklift use, with drawer extensions that align with standard forklift fork heights.

Safety Features: Non-slip drawer surfaces (prevent sheets from sliding), locking mechanisms (to secure drawers during transport), and reinforced frame corners (for impact resistance).

Customization: Tailored to Your Exact Needs

Herochu doesn’t expect you to adapt your workshop to a standard rack—we adapt the rack to your workshop. Here’s how we customize:

Size Adjustments: Need a narrower rack for tight aisles? Or a taller one to fit 14-foot ceilings? We modify width, depth, and height to match your space—e.g., a 3’ wide rack for narrow fabrication areas or a 14’ tall rack for high-ceiling warehouses.

Drawer Modifications: If your sheets are non-standard (e.g., 6’x12’ aluminum sheets), we adjust drawer size, count, or spacing to fit. We can also add dividers within drawers to separate smaller sheets or different material types (e.g., steel vs. aluminum).

Load Capacity Upgrades: Handling extra-heavy materials (e.g., 6,000-pound steel plates)? We reinforce the frame, drawer slides, and bearings to increase load capacity—our engineering team runs stress tests to ensure safety and stability.

Special Features: Add protective linings (for delicate materials), wire mesh drawer bottoms (to prevent small debris buildup), or locking mechanisms (for high-security inventory). We also offer color customization (beyond standard industrial gray) to match your workshop’s safety color-coding or branding.

Installation Flexibility: Need the rack mounted to the floor (for extra stability)? Or designed to fit around existing equipment (e.g., a cutting machine or press)? Our team works with your layout to ensure seamless integration—no rearranging your operation to fit the rack.

To start customization, share your workshop dimensions, material specs (size, weight, type), and workflow needs with Herochu’s design team. We provide detailed CAD drawings and dimensional diagrams (available for download or on inquiry) so you can visualize the final product before production. No guesswork—just a rack that fits perfectly.
