hen fabricators think about investments, machines usually get the spotlight. But one of the most impactful upgrades in a shop often goes unnoticed: sheet metal storage. The right rack system doesn’t just organize material—it quietly improves efficiency, reduces waste, and pays for itself over time.
The Big Game Steel Standard Sheet Metal Storage Rack is designed with that exact goal in mind.
________________________________________
Disorganized sheet storage creates daily friction in a shop:
• Time wasted searching for material
• Extra handling and re-stacking
• Scratched, warped, or damaged sheets
• Congested aisles and inefficient layouts
• Increased safety risks
Individually, these issues may seem minor. Over weeks, months, and years, they add up to real labor costs, lost production time, and unnecessary scrap.

One of the biggest ROI drivers of the Standard Rack is speed.
With organized, visible storage:
• Operators know exactly where material is
• Sheets can be accessed quickly with a forklift
• Machines spend less time waiting on material
• Jobs move through the shop faster
Saving even a few minutes per material pull compounds quickly across multiple shifts and crews.

Sheet metal stored in piles or on the floor is far more likely to be damaged. The Standard Rack:
• Keeps sheets separated and supported
• Prevents rubbing, bending, and edge damage
• Reduces rework and scrap
Protecting material means fewer write-offs and more predictable job costs—another direct return on investment.

Floor space is expensive, and many shops run out of it faster than expected. The Standard Rack helps solve that by:
• Storing sheet metal vertically instead of horizontally
• Allowing racks to be stacked up to 18 feet high
• Creating cleaner aisles and better traffic flow
Reclaiming space can delay or eliminate the need for costly expansions while making room for new equipment or improved layouts.

The Standard Rack isn’t a temporary solution. It’s built for long-term efficiency:
• Heavy-duty construction designed for industrial environments
• Shelves rated to handle demanding loads
• Designed for common sheet sizes (4×8, 5×10, 6×12)
• Forklift-ready for daily use
This is storage that grows with your operation—not something you replace every few years.

When you factor in:
• Reduced labor time
• Lower scrap and damage
• Improved safety
• Better space utilization
• Faster throughput
The ROI becomes clear. The Standard Rack doesn’t just store material—it improves how your entire shop operates.
The right rack doesn’t cost you money. It saves it.
If you’re ready to invest in long-term efficiency, Big Game Steel’s Standard Sheet Metal Storage Rack is built to deliver returns from day one—and keep paying you back for years to come.
