Frequently asked questions (FAQS) about Cable Reel Racks | Cable Reel Storage

What types of cable reel storage options does AJ Products UK offer?

We offer a range of cable reel racks, including static and adjustable models designed to store and dispense cable reels directly from the rack. These systems are ideal for electrical workshops, warehouses and production facilities.

How does a cable reel racking system improve handling and access?

Cable reel racking allows you to unwind, cut and manage cables directly from the rack, reducing manual handling and preventing tangling. It streamlines operations and supports neater, faster workflows.

Can cable reel storage racks be customised to fit different reel sizes?

Yes, many of our cable reel storage racks are height-adjustable or come with repositionable arms. This flexibility allows you to store multiple reel sizes within a single unit - great for sites with varying cable types.

Are these cable racks built to handle heavy reels?

Absolutely. Our cable racks are made from powder-coated steel and designed with high load capacities to safely support heavy-duty cable drums and industrial reel stock.

Cable reel racks for tangle-free storage and faster cable handling

Managing cable drums, hoses and reels in busy workshops or warehouses can be a constant source of frustration without structured storage. That’s why AJ Products UK offers cable reel racks engineered for safe, organised dispensing—eliminating clutter, improving speed, and reducing wear on materials. Built for daily use in maintenance bays, production lines and service teams, these systems make it easier to control, cut and store coiled goods without waste or confusion.

Reel rotation systems that simplify high-use cable access

In fast-paced environments where reels are constantly in motion, having a setup that works with your flow makes all the difference. Our cable reel racking is fitted with rotating spindles or steel shafts that allow for direct pull-and-cut use, reducing downtime between tasks. Arms and frames can be adjusted to handle everything from lightweight hose reels to industrial cable drums. For operations dealing with heavy-duty reels, we recommend using lifting trolleys to load and position drums safely with minimal manual effort.

Elevated cable reel storage that improves safety and visibility

Scattered reels on the floor pose trip hazards, damage risk and wasted time. Wall-mounted or free-standing cable reel storage racks offer a smarter solution by elevating stock off the ground and keeping everything visible. Choose from open racks for quick ID and access, or enclosed models for extra protection in high-traffic areas. Many teams install tool storage cabinets nearby to keep cutters, gloves, and fasteners close—creating a safe, all-in-one cable handling station.

Modular racking that scales with your cable stock and layout

No two workspaces are the same—and neither are reel storage needs. Our modular cable racks are designed to flex with your setup: they can be expanded side-by-side for wide format reels or stacked vertically where floor space is tight. This makes them a smart choice for growing operations or sites with diverse material sizes. For maintenance teams that need to stay mobile, mobile tool trolleys are a popular pairing—helping to move tools and small reels between stations without losing track of gear.
