Not talkin’ sheet… but the wrong cart will have your shop doing the same material-handling dance over and over:

unload
set it down
shuffle it
restack it
move it again
wonder where the right sheet went

A sheet metal cart should do one job really well: fit your shop flow.

At STEELSTACK, we built our carts to match how real shops move material—especially when you’re running our storage systems. Here’s how to choose between the Sheet Cart Max, Sheet Cart Pro, and our Fold-Away A-Frame Cart based on your layout and how you work.

If you run STACK MAX (or move heavy sheet all day): Sheet Cart Max

If your shop handles heavy volume, runs bigger sheets, or you want a cart that basically acts like a “material staging station,” the Sheet Cart Max is the move and integrates directly with our Heavy-duty sheet metal storage systems.

Why it fits the layout

The Sheet Cart Max is designed as part of the STACK MAX family and built for up to 10,000 lbs of sheet storage.

The big reason people choose it:

Sequencing.
It uses a dual-cassette system (fixed lower + removable upper MAX cassette) so you can stage material in order and keep production moving and locking casters.

Best for layouts like:

bigger shops with a dedicated material area
laser tables where you stage multiple jobs
operations that want to reduce downtime and re-handling.

In plain shop talk:
If you’re tired of “where’d that sheet go?” and you want your next job staged and ready, our sheet metal storage cart is built for that. Learn how sheet metal supply ltd. incorporated the STEELSTACK into there workflow.

If you run STACK PRO and need mobility + a work surface: Sheet Cart Pro

The Sheet Cart Pro is your “move it, park it, work off it” cart.

Why it fits the layout

Built to work perfectly with STACK PRO (Aluminum, Plastics, and Wood Sheet Storage)
Holds up to 3,000 lbs
Handles sheet sizes up to 60x120
Has locking casters so it can roll when you need it and stay put when you don’t.
Bonus: a raised 42" surface that doubles as a workstation (great for staging/organization)

Best for layouts like:

tighter aisles where you need maneuverability
smaller-to-mid shops that still move a lot of material
shops that want the cart to double as a workbench/staging table.

If you need vertical sheet holding + it folds away: Fold-Away A-Frame Cart

This one is for the “I need it when I need it… and I want it gone when I don’t” shops.

Why it fits the layout

Holds sheets in an A-frame / vertical position (great for quick access and tight spaces)
Capacity listed at 2,000 lbs.
Folds flat when the job is done and mounts directly on the STACK MAX or STACK PRO

Best for layouts like:

small shops where every square foot matters
staging “current job” sheets close to the brake/assembly
overflow storage without adding permanent clutter

Quick “Which sheet cart is for me?” cheat sheet

Choose Sheet Cart Max if you:

move heavy sheet daily
want sequencing (staged jobs)
want a cart designed to fit the STACK MAX workflow

Choose Sheet Cart Pro if you:

run STACK PRO
want mobility + a stable, lockable cart
like the idea of a cart that also works as a workstation

Choose Fold-Away A-Frame if you:

need vertical sheet holding
want something that folds flat
want a simple cart that can mount to Max or Pro systems

How to Choose the Right Sheet Metal Cart for Your Shop Layout

How STEELSTACK Replaced Wood Pallets and Cantilever Racks at Sheet Metal Supply Ltd. with Efficient Sheet Metal Storage

When we expanded from 30,000 sq. ft. to 80,000 in March of 2020, we quickly realized how much shop space we really needed. Our old cantilever racks hit a tipping point. We were constantly fighting space constraints, balance issues, and inefficiencies. With wood pallets, materials were often off-center, which made handling unsafe and slowed us down. Switching to STEELSTACK cassettes solved that — they gave us fork pockets for guaranteed balance, reduced the number of skids we needed, and created a much safer and more efficient workflow.
