Yes, cantilever rackings are financed as a standard asset purchase, usually on hire purchase or a lease, with the machine itself acting as the security. UK prices typically run £3,000 to £120,000, and most deals are written over 12-60 months with a deposit of around 10-20%. Decisions typically take 24–48 hours. Used machines are financeable too, usually with a shorter term.

Guide prices for sizing a finance agreement, not quotes. Manufacturers in this market mostly price on application, so where a current UK list price could not be confirmed the row describes a specification class rather than naming a model. Your supplier quote is what the agreement is written against.

Check EligibilityCantilever racking is a bolted, demountable structure rather than something fixed to the building, and it is generally treated as moveable plant and machinery for capital allowances purposes on that basis, letting the cost typically qualify for Annual Investment Allowance. As with all racking systems, whether a specific installation is treated as plant or as part of the building can depend on how permanently it is fixed and how the supplier has specified the base fixings, so it is worth confirming the position for larger or unusually configured installations. HP agreements let you claim capital allowances directly; lease payments are deducted as a running cost.
Cantilever racking is typically bought by timber merchants, steel stockholders, and businesses storing pipe, tube, sheet material or other long and awkward loads that do not sit well on standard pallet racking. Because the arms are bolted to the uprights rather than welded or cast in place, a cantilever system can usually be reconfigured or extended as stock profiles change, and it holds resale value in the same way pallet racking does. Single-sided systems against a wall are common where floor space is at a premium, while double-sided runs are more usual in open yards and larger sheds. Height and arm length are generally specified against the longest or heaviest item routinely stocked, with capacity headroom built in for growth.
