Browse our Sheet Metal Storage Rack Systems

Big Game Steel manufactures four sheet metal rack configurations, each built from structural steel engineered to hold up in a real fabrication environment. That means standing up to forklift contact, machine tool vibration, uneven load conditions, and the daily abuse of a production shop floor. Where competitors cut costs with lighter-gauge material, BGS racks are built for the long haul: heavier, more durable, and designed to perform without failure over years of industrial use.

Standard Sheet Metal Storage Rack

The foundational BGS rack for forklift-only shops. Cassette-style shelves load and unload via forklift, making this the right choice for shops that don’t operate overhead cranes. Stores 4x8, 5x10, and 6x12 sheets. Its modular design lets you stack units to store more material in less floor space while reducing handling time.

Combo Sheet Metal Storage Rack

The hybrid solution for shops running both a forklift and an overhead crane. Lower shelves use an integrated drawer system for crane-based loading and unloading. Upper shelves use forklift cassettes. Same 5,000 lb capacity per shelf as the Standard, with added flexibility for multi-method material handling. Separating lower and upper storage zones makes it easy to categorize stock by gauge and keep commonly pulled material accessible at the crane level.

Ridgeline Vertical sheet metal rack

The Ridgeline stores sheets upright in individual bays, reclaiming floor space by using vertical air instead of horizontal square footage. Designed for overhead crane, jib crane, hoist, or vacuum lifter loading, it provides clear visibility across sheet sizes and reduces retrieval time by limiting unnecessary handling. Ideal for shops where rapid material retrieval and minimal floor footprint are the priority.

Roll-Out Sheet Metal Rack

Heavy-duty drawers with 100% extension give you full access to every sheet without moving adjacent material. The drawer system eliminates the retrieval bottleneck that comes with cassette-style handling. Every sheet is reachable without restacking. Engineered for shops using cranes or vacuum lifters. The highest-capacity drawer system in the BGS lineup.

Which Sheet Metal Rack Is Right for Your Shop?

The right system depends on how you move material, not just how much of it you store. Use this as a starting point:

Standard Rack

For forklift-driven material handling and high-density sheet storage.

Combo Rack

For shops that want forklift access plus crane-pick flexibility.

Ridgeline

For vertical sheet storage when floor space is limited and fast visual access matters.

Roll-Out Rack

For full drawer access to sheets and remnants without digging through a stack.

Not sure? Call us! We’ll help you match the right configuration to your shop layout and equipment.

The real cost of Floor-Stacking Metal

Most fabrication shops underestimate what floor-stacking actually costs them. It’s not just the square footage, it’s the time lost moving pallets to reach one specific gauge, the material damage from sheets rubbing against each other, and the safety risk of unstable stacks on a live shop floor. BGS sheet metal storage racks replace all of that with a system designed for how a real shop operates: organized by gauge, accessible by crane or forklift, and built to protect material integrity so your laser-ready sheets arrive at the machine without scratches or warping.

Built for High-Mix Fabrication Environments

Our sheet metal storage systems are used across a range of industrial applications:
HVAC fabrication shops staging multiple gauges of galvanized and stainless sheet near production equipment
Aerospace manufacturers protecting specialized alloy sheets from surface damage and contamination
Automotive prototyping operations running high-SKU inventory that demands fast access without full-pallet moves
Precision laser cutting shops where material integrity is non-negotiable
General fabrication shops looking to eliminate wooden pallets, reclaim floor space, and build a leaner workflow.

a range of terms are used for this equipment. our sheet metal storage racks are also commonly referred to as:

sheet metal racks, sheet steel storage racks, steel sheet racks, sheet metal racking systems, sheet metal shelving, sheet storage racks, sheet metal storage racks, heavy-duty sheet metal storage racks, or sheet metal storage systems
