Big Game Steel is a premier American manufacturer specializing in heavy duty sheet metal storage racks and high-capacity material handling equipment. We provide robust steel storage solutions engineered to solve the most demanding storage challenges in metal fabrication, industrial manufacturing, and large-scale distribution centers.
Every steel sheet rack and material handling tool we offer is proudly designed, engineered, and manufactured in the USA. By using high-quality American steel, we ensure that each metal stock storage rack meets the highest industrial standards for strength, safety, and long-term durability.
Choosing Big Game Steel means investing in unparalleled structural integrity and shop safety. Unlike lighter-duty alternatives, our steel storage racking is built with heavy structural steel and offers custom solutions reviewed by Professional Engineers (PE) to maximize your sheet metal storage efficiency and floor space.
Yes, we provide a complete "turnkey" installation experience through our sister company, OpEx Service. Our expert team handles everything from offloading to the final precision anchoring of your sheet metal racking system, ensuring your facility is up and running without delay.
Our standard steel sheet storage racks are designed to accommodate 4x8, 5x10, and 6x12 sheets. Because our sheet racking is built for industrial versatility, it also perfectly fits common intermediate sizes like 4x10 or 6x10, and we offer custom sizing for any specialized storing sheet metal requirements.
Each metal sheet shelf (or cassette) in our standard system is engineered to support a massive 5,000 lbs. This high-capacity design makes our units the premier rack for storing metal in high-volume shops that handle heavy-gauge steel, aluminum, and other dense materials.
Our sheet metal shelving is precision-engineered with a pre-camber to ensure maximum load-bearing performance. This intentional curvature supports heavy bundles by distributing weight to the perimeter, ensuring the metal sheet shelf flattens perfectly under load rather than bowing, sagging, or fatiguing over time.
Our standard sheet metal rack storage provides approximately 3 inches of vertical "daylight" clearance between material stacks. This spacing is specifically optimized for forklift access, though we can fully customize these dimensions during the design phase to fit your specific sheet steel storage bundle heights.
Yes, our vertical sheet metal storage racks are designed to meet rigorous safety codes and are reviewed by a licensed Professional Engineer (PE). We can provide specific PE-stamped drawings to ensure your sheet metal storage system meets all local seismic and building regulations.
Our sheet metal storage racking features integrated forklift access channels that streamline material handling. Operators can place a material stack directly onto the sheet metal shelf and retract the forks without manual spacers, while unloading is as simple as sliding the forks into the channels and lifting.
No, Big Game Steel provides static, forklift-accessible vertical sheet metal racks. This high-density design allows us to build significantly higher large metal storage racks that support much heavier loads than hand-operated drawer systems, allowing you to fully utilize the vertical cube of your facility.
To maintain the safety of your sheet metal storage system, racks must be installed on a level, reinforced concrete slab. We typically recommend a minimum of 6" of concrete rated at 3,000 PSI to support the combined weight of the steel storage racks and their maximum material loads.
Yes, our sheet metal racking is designed as a strictly front-loading system. This allows you to implement creative sheet metal storage ideas, such as placing units flush against walls or back-to-back, to significantly reduce the footprint of your metal sheet storage rack.
We offer two primary mobile steel storage solutions: the Terrain Table, which serves as a heavy-duty mobile workbench, and the Cascade Cart, a rugged steel rolling cart. Both units are engineered to provide a durable, portable work surface for demanding shop environments.
Each rolling industrial cart in our lineup features heavy-duty casters where every individual wheel is rated for 600 lbs. This gives our industrial rolling carts massive total load capacities while maintaining quiet, smooth mobility across uneven industrial floors.
Our mobile workstations are built for "blue-collar" durability, featuring 3/16" high-strength steel tops and 10-gauge reinforced frames. Whether you are using it as a workbench or a mobile sheet metal shelf, the industrial powder-coat finish ensures these steel rolling carts resist corrosion and wear.
Yes, the Terrain Table is an ideal steel rolling cart for welding and heavy fabrication. The 3/16" high-strength steel surface and reinforced 10-gauge frame are specifically built to withstand the heat and heavy impact associated with professional welding and wrenching.
We offer various caster configurations, including locking options, for our rolling industrial cart line. For convenience, these units ship flat-packed to reduce freight costs and feature a modular bolt-together design that can be fully assembled by your team using just one tool.
The Husky Hopper is a heavy duty self-dumping hopper designed for the efficient management of industrial waste, wood chips, and scrap. It is a critical component for shops looking for better sheet metal storage ideas, as it keeps the floor clear of hazardous scrap and debris.
Our scrap metal hopper is available in multiple modular sizes to fit your waste volume, including 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, and 1 to 4 Cubic Yards. These sizes ensure we have a steel storage solution for every scale of manufacturing or recycling operation.
The Husky Hopper features a precision-engineered base that integrates seamlessly with your forklift forks. When the latch is engaged, the hopper tilts forward to dump its contents completely before automatically returning to its upright, safely locked position for continued use.
Integrating a scrap metal hopper into your sheet metal storage systems reduces manual lifting and minimizes the risk of spills. It is particularly effective at managing volatile scrap and oily rags, helping to significantly reduce fire hazards and trip risks on the shop floor.
We provide the best durability-to-cost ratio for heavy duty sheet metal storage racks on the market. While we are priced competitively, we focus on high-value steel storage solutions and offer multi-unit discounts for customers looking to implement a full sheet metal racking system.
Standard steel storage racks and industrial rolling carts are often in stock for rapid fulfillment. For a custom-engineered sheet metal storage rack or a large-scale vertical sheet metal storage rack project, typical lead times range from 8–12 weeks.
All sheet steel storage racks are shipped via flatbed truck or LTL freight. To ensure safe transit and easy offloading, units are shipped disassembled and securely bundled, accompanied by detailed drawings for straightforward on-site assembly.
You can request a formal quote for any metal stock storage rack or rolling industrial cart here or calling (920) 207-9209. We look forward to helping you develop the perfect sheet metal storage system for your facility.
We are priced competitively with other products on the market. We won't be the least expensive, but we will do you best to hit your budget for the best storage system on the market.
Absolutely. We made this system to be a modular and expandable so you can certainly start with an 8 shelf system.
We offer storage racks for various sheet metal sizes, including 5x10 and 6x12 sheets. This means if you have 4x8, 4x10, or 6x10 sheet sizes, they will fit into our system. If you have specific size requirements, please contact us, and we'll do our best to accommodate your needs.
Each shelf of our racks is designed to support up to 5,000 pounds, ensuring that even your heaviest metal sheets are securely stored.
Our racks are constructed from high-grade steel, which provides superior strength, resistance to wear, and reliability in demanding industrial environments.

The maximum height of a 16 shelf system is 12.5' feet tall. That maximum height of the 8 shelf system is 6.25' ft.
This is largely dependent on the sheet sizes and height of your system. Contact us and we will provide you with the most accurate requirements.
Contact us and we will send you a formal layout of the system you plan on purchasing.
Yes we do through our sister company OpEx Service. It is our goal to provide you with a seamless customer experience from purchase to installation completion.
