Roll-Out Vertical Sheet Rack Systems

Herochu’s Roll-Out Vertical Sheet Rack Systems solve these problems by reimagining sheet storage: vertical orientation, roll-out accessibility, and industrial strength. Unlike fixed racks that force you to reach over or move multiple sheets to get to the one you need, our systems let you pull out entire drawers with a single hand—exposing every sheet’s full face for easy access. Whether you’re working with 2-inch-thick steel sheets, thin aluminum panels, or leftover remnant pieces, our racks keep everything organized, visible, and ready to use.

Designed for manufacturing facilities, fabrication shops, warehouses, and any workspace handling sheet metal, plastic, or composite sheets, our systems don’t just “hold” your materials—they streamline access, maximize storage density, and protect your valuable inventory. Starting at $3,099 and fully customizable to fit your workshop’s unique layout, Herochu’s Roll-Out Vertical Sheet Racks are backed by CE, UE, and ISO 9001 certifications—a promise of industrial-grade quality, durability, and compliance with global safety and performance standards.

Why Herochu’s Roll-Out Vertical Sheet Racks Stand Above Generic Storage

At Herochu, we don’t design storage systems in a vacuum—we build them for the real challenges workshop managers and teams face every day. We know that sheet metal storage is often an afterthought, leading to stacks of sheets that take up half your floor space, get scratched or bent when moved, and require multiple team members to lift and maneuver. Worse, disorganized sheets slow down production: if your team spends 15 minutes searching for a 10-foot steel sheet or struggling to access a remnant piece, that’s time taken away from fabrication, assembly, or delivery.

Core Features: Built for High-Volume, Heavy-Duty Use

Herochu’s Roll-Out Vertical Sheet Rack Systems are engineered to handle the demands of busy workshops. Every component—from the powder-coated steel frame to the reinforced tracks— is designed for durability, safety, and efficiency. Here’s what makes our racks a game-changer:

1. High-Capacity Storage: 2,000 Pounds Per Drawer

Sheet metal is heavy—and your storage system needs to keep up. Each roll-out drawer in our VSRS (Vertical Sheet Rack System) holds up to 2,000 pounds (907 kilograms) of sheet material—enough to store multiple full-size sheets without bending, warping, or compromising safety. Whether you’re stockpiling 12-foot by 6-foot (3.66 meters by 1.83 meters) steel sheets or smaller 6-foot by 4-foot panels, our drawers accommodate maximum dimensions of 12’ x 6’ x 2” (depth)—so you won’t have to cut sheets to fit or leave valuable materials on the floor.

Standard units come with 5, 10, 15, 20, or 25 drawers, but we don’t stop there. Need more drawers? A custom depth to fit extra-thick sheets? We’ll tailor the system to your exact needs—no “one-size-fits-all” compromises.

2. Roll-Out Design: Full Access, Single-User Operation

The magic of our system lies in the roll-out drawers. Unlike fixed vertical racks where sheets are hidden behind one another, each drawer extends fully from the frame—exposing the entire face of every sheet inside. This means:

No more moving three sheets to reach the one you need.

Compatibility with any material handling tool: sheet lifts, vacuum lifts, hoists, magnets, forklifts, or even manual access.

Single-user operation: One team member can pull out a fully loaded drawer (up to 2,000 lbs) with minimal effort, thanks to heavy-duty casters and reinforced guide tracks.

For fabrication shops where labor is a premium, this feature alone cuts down on downtime and reduces the need for extra hands—saving you time and money on every project.

3. Space-Saving Vertical Orientation: Maximize Floor Space

Floor space is the most valuable real estate in any workshop. Herochu’s vertical design lifts your sheet metal off the ground and into a compact footprint—freeing up aisles, workbenches, or space for additional production equipment. A standard 20-drawer system, for example, can store hundreds of sheets in the same space that a traditional horizontal stack would take up for just a dozen.

Even better, the compact size lets you place the rack right next to your operating equipment—whether it’s a laser cutter, press brake, or welding station. No more wheeling sheets across the workshop: grab what you need, load it into your machine, and keep production moving.

4. Durability That Lasts: Powder-Coated Steel Frame & Reinforced Components

Sheet metal storage systems take a beating—from heavy loads, constant use, and exposure to workshop dust, grease, or moisture. Herochu’s racks are built to withstand it all:

Steel frame: Constructed from thick, high-grade steel for maximum stability.

Powder coating: A tough, corrosion-resistant finish that prevents rust and scratches—even in humid or messy environments (like marine fabrication shops or auto body garages).

Reinforced tracks: Guide tracks are strengthened to handle repeated roll-outs and heavy loads, ensuring smooth travel for years.

Non-skid drawers: Prevents sheets from shifting during transport, reducing the risk of damage or accidents.

Our CE, UE, and ISO 9001 certifications mean every rack is tested to meet strict global standards—so you can trust it to hold up under daily use, no matter how demanding your workshop is.

5. Remnant Storage: No More Wasted Materials

Leftover sheet pieces (remnants) are often the most frustrating to store. They’re too small for standard racks but too valuable to throw away—so they end up in bins, on shelves, or scattered across workbenches. Herochu’s Roll-Out Vertical Sheet Racks solve this with lateral support bars built into each drawer. These bars let you store remnant pieces vertically alongside full sheets, keeping them organized, visible, and easy to access.

For shops that pride themselves on reducing waste, this feature turns leftover scraps into usable materials—saving you money on new sheet purchases and cutting down on landfill waste.

Solve Your Workshop’s Biggest Sheet Metal Storage Problems

Every workshop faces unique challenges, but Herochu’s Roll-Out Vertical Sheet Racks address the most common pain points head-on:

Problem 1: “I Don’t Have Enough Floor Space for All My Sheets”

If your sheet metal is stacked on pallets, leaning against walls, or taking over workbenches, you’re not just wasting space—you’re slowing down production. Herochu’s vertical design turns a 10-foot-wide horizontal stack into a 3-foot-wide vertical rack. Imagine freeing up 70% of that space for a new workbench, an extra machine, or wider aisles for safer traffic.

One of our customers—a mid-size fabrication shop—used to store 50 steel sheets on the floor, taking up a 12’ x 8’ area. After installing a 15-drawer Herochu rack, they stored 150 sheets in a 4’ x 8’ space—freeing up room for a new laser cutter that increased their output by 30%.

Problem 2: “My Team Wastes Time Looking for Sheets or Remnants”

Time spent searching for materials is time lost. A 2023 survey of fabrication shops found that teams spend an average of 2.5 hours per day hunting for the right sheet metal or remnant piece. Herochu’s roll-out drawers and visible storage eliminate this: every sheet is labeled (if you choose) and fully visible when the drawer is open. Your team can find what they need in seconds—not minutes.

Plus, with remnant pieces stored on lateral bars, you’ll stop throwing away usable material. One auto body shop reported saving $12,000 per year on sheet metal purchases after switching to our racks—all from using remnants they previously couldn’t find.

Problem 3: “Sheets Get Damaged When We Move Them”

Scratched, bent, or dented sheet metal is useless for high-quality projects. Traditional storage forces you to slide sheets against one another, stack them unevenly, or drag them across the floor—all of which cause damage. Herochu’s roll-out drawers keep sheets separated and stable: no sliding, no stacking, no dragging. Each sheet stays in place until you’re ready to use it, so you’ll reduce waste and avoid reordering damaged materials.

Problem 4: “I Need a System That Works With My Existing Tools”

If you already own a vacuum lift or forklift, you don’t want a storage system that forces you to buy new equipment. Herochu’s roll-out drawers are designed to work with any material handling tool you use. The fully exposed sheet face lets you attach a vacuum lift, hook a hoist, or position a forklift—no awkward angles, no inaccessible sheets. This compatibility means you can integrate the rack into your existing workflow without costly upgrades.

How to Choose the Right Herochu Roll-Out Vertical Sheet Rack

To get the most out of your investment, we recommend considering three key factors when selecting your system:

1. The Size and Weight of Your Sheets

Start by listing the materials you use most: steel, aluminum, plastic, or composites. Note their dimensions (length, width, thickness) and weight per sheet. For example:

If you primarily use 10’ x 5’ steel sheets (1.5” thick, 500 lbs each), a 10-drawer system (2,000 lb capacity per drawer) can hold 4 sheets per drawer—200 sheets total.

If you work with smaller 6’ x 4’ aluminum sheets (0.5” thick, 100 lbs each), a 5-drawer system can hold 20 sheets per drawer—100 sheets in a compact footprint.

Our team will help you calculate the right number of drawers and drawer size to fit your inventory.

2. Your Workshop Layout and Space

Measure the area where you want to place the rack—note the width, depth, and ceiling height. Our standard systems are designed to fit in most workshop spaces, but we can customize the height or width if you have tight corners or low ceilings. For example:

If you have a narrow aisle (3 feet wide), a single-sided rack (depth: 2.5 feet) will fit without blocking traffic.

If you have an open area near your press brake, a double-sided rack (depth: 5 feet) lets you access sheets from both sides—ideal for high-volume use.

3. Special Needs: Remnants, Coatings, or Backing

Do you need extra support for remnant pieces? We can add more lateral bars. Work in a humid environment? We offer extra corrosion-resistant coatings. Want to prevent sheets from falling backward? Opt for wire mesh backing. Need removable arms to adjust storage as your needs change? We’ve got that too. Our custom options ensure the rack works for you—not the other way around.

Pros and Cons: Is a Roll-Out Vertical Sheet Rack Right for You?

We believe in transparency—so let’s break down the advantages and considerations of our system:

Pros

High storage density: Store 2–3x more sheets in the same floor space as traditional racks.

Time savings: Single-user access and full sheet visibility cut down on material retrieval time.

Damage reduction: Vertical storage and non-skid drawers protect sheets from scratches and bending.

Customization: Tailor drawers, size, and features to your exact needs.

Safety: Certified design eliminates tripping hazards (no sheets on the floor) and reduces lifting injuries.

Cons

Higher initial investment: Compared to basic fixed racks, our system has a higher upfront cost—but the ROI (time saved, waste reduced, space freed) typically pays for itself within 6–12 months.

Minimal maintenance: Moving components (casters, tracks) need occasional lubrication—far less than the maintenance required for forklifts or other material handling equipment, but more than fixed racks.

Fixed placement: Once installed, the rack is harder to move than a portable pallet—so we recommend planning your layout carefully before installation (our team can help with this!).
