Steel Storage Systems designs and manufactures material handling equipment built for the demands of metals processing and distribution operations. Our systems are engineered to improve safety, optimize flow, and maximize storage density for long product, flat material, and structural components.
SpaceSaver Rack
The SpaceSaver System is a modular racking system featuring roll-out cantilever receptacles for storing long product. These receptacles extend into the aisle, providing full access for crane or forklift retrieval. The system complements overhead handling methods by delivering immediate, safe access to inventory.
Our steel racks handle a wide range of material types, sizes, weights, and lengths. We also offer custom and one-sided models, along with multiple accessory options to improve organization and material flow.
Sheet Rack
Steel Storage Systems offers sheet metal racks purpose-built for horizontal storage of flat materials. Each drawer — available in pull-out, crank-out, or powered operation — provides safe, easy access to material while improving operational flow.
These systems integrate seamlessly with production machinery such as shears, lasers, and press brakes, creating an efficient and cost-effective manufacturing cell.
Custom Material Handling
We work with you to develop custom storage solutions that solve your unique operational challenges. Our expertise includes beam splitters, cut-to-length (CTL) exit and packaging lines, CNC turning center feed and exit lines, and bundle stackers.
With extensive manufacturing and engineering capabilities, we tailor custom material handling systems to your facility and workflow. Our ability to design and build automated equipment with integrated controls sets us apart in the metals industry.
Steel Storage Systems can be your partner from concept through installation, ensuring all parts and components are installed efficiently and with care. We offer on-site consultation, installation support and product support, guaranteeing efficient warehouse and production operations. With a network of reps and dealers all over the US, Canada, and Mexico, we’re certain that you’ll be supported every step of the way, quickly and with expertise.
Conveyor Systems
Steel Storage Systems designs and manufactures material handling conveyor systems and components to meet your specific material handling requirements. Our lineup includes idler and roller conveyors, chain conveyor systems, transfer and cross conveyors, load and discharge systems, and measuring systems.
With over 60 years of experience in material handling equipment, we build reliable, modular systems that enhance processing throughput and material control.
Parts Tumbler
The Metal Parts Tumbler from Steel Storage Systems is a self-contained solution for removing slag, burrs, scale, and rust from steel parts to provide a cleaner finish. The rotary design includes a dust collector that vacuums particles from the chamber, producing cleaner parts with no operator needed.
This fully automated unit is a smart, efficient addition to any finishing process.
Beam Rotator
Our Beam Rotator is built to turn mill bundles so the web is horizontal for conventional stacking and easy steel storage. It also handles rectangular tubing and stacked bundles, improving efficiency in high-volume material handling environments.
This piece of material handling equipment is a must-have for operations looking to improve safety and productivity.
