Cages

Roll cages are a reliable choice for businesses across various industries. They can enhance efficiency, productivity, and safety in the workplace by providing durable construction, various designs, and smooth mobility.

In a commercial setting, the roll cages can be used for efficient, safe transportation of goods and storage applications. With roll cages, you can streamline the material handling process and become an invaluable part of ensuring the smooth movement of items while maintaining safety standards.

What is a Roll Cage?

A roll cage is simply a mobile container constructed from metal. It is used to transport goods within a warehouse, retail store, or other facility. It is equipped with wheels to facilitate the movement of heavy or bulky items. This helps reduce manual lifting and the dangers associated with it.

Types of Roll Cages

Roll cages are used across different industries and environments. To ensure they can execute their function successfully, the cages come in different designs and configurations to suit their applications in different applications. Some of the types of roll cages we have include the following:

2-Sided Roll Cages

Two-sided roll cages have two mesh, raised sides. They are used in various sectors for transporting goods and packages. Having only two sides makes this range of roll cages ideal for efficient loading and unloading of goods or stock. This makes the two-sided roll cages an excellent choice for busy and high-tempo environments.

4-Sided Roll Cages

The 4-sided roll containers are ideal in warehousing or retail environments. They allow for secure transportation of goods without worrying about the items being dislodged or falling over from a sudden nudge or jerk.

Because the roll cage has four sides, you can stack them higher to the full height of the cage, maximising the space you can use. These cages are also nestable, which means they take up minimal space for storage.

Demountable Roll Cages

The demountable roll container is similar to the 3—or 4-sided roll cage containers, especially in terms of applications. Demountable roll cages can be used in warehouses and retail areas. They have also had great success in the medical and food service markets. The real difference is that the demountable option can be fully dismantled when not in use.

This is a crucial feature for logistics and storage applications. When dismantled, you can pack more cages on return trips, saving on costs. By stacking the cages on top of each other, you can also save space in your warehouse. If space is a premium in your facility, demountable roll cages may be a better option than nestable roll cages because they take up less storage space.

Nestable Roll Cages

Nestable roll cages are the most compact options available in our roll cage catalogue. They fold quickly, with the sides and base shelf folding up against the fixed back panel. Because of their unique design, they are incredibly easy to store.

When purchasing roll cages, you have the option of two additional shelves, making them versatile while remaining efficient enough to thrive in busy work environments. You also have the option of a 3- or 4-sided container when you want something that can help with transporting stock. The fully enclosed model is ideal for overnight storage to keep goods or stock more secure.

Distribution Roll Cages

Distribution roll cages are a better choice if you are working with larger loads and want to keep them safe and secure during transport. They are ideal for warehouses and factories. They come in different configurations. You can choose one with the door or one without. There are also options with multiple shelves or none at all. The variety of options makes it easier to pick a distribution roll cage that works for your operations and functions.

Key Features of Roll Cages

Roll cages have several important features that make them flourish in the busy and demanding commercial space and the environments they work in. Some of these features include the following:

Durable construction

LKE roll cages are built from steel, which ensures they can handle heavy loads and withstand daily wear and tear. Their sturdy design provides long-term durability and reliability. It also minimises maintenance costs, ensuring you get the best value for your investment.

Versatile designs

We can supply roll cages in different configurations, including two-sided, three-sided, and four-sided models. Our versatility allows your business to pick a roll cage that best serves your needs and industry requirements.

High load capacity

Roll cages are designed to withstand substantial weight. Their stable construction can transport large quantities of goods. The cages can handle up to 500 kg and a wide range of items. However, you should refer to our guides and recommendations on the specific weight capacity for the different options available to find one that meets your weight requirements.

Smooth mobility

Another key feature of roll cages is that they are equipped with high-quality castor wheels that ensure smooth and easy movement. The presence of casters makes it easy for your staff to move significant loads with minimal effort. For additional manoeuvrability, some roll cages also have swivel wheels, which allow your workers to navigate tight spaces more effortlessly.

Secure storage

Roll cages can add a substantial amount of security for items that require additional security. The cages provide various locking mechanisms that you can use to secure the contents of the roll cage during transport. This is an important feature when you’re trying to prevent the theft of goods and ensure the safety of valuable items during transit.

Foldable options

If you have limited space, some types of roll cages have a foldable feature that will save valuable space when they are not in use. The roll cages can be easily collapsed when not in use. There are also demountable options that can be fully dismounted to save even more space. These space-efficiency features simplify storage and ensure you only bring out the roll cages when you need them.
