Where can I source cask racks and barrel storage solutions in the UK?
Members have found two practical approaches to maximizing barrel storage:
**Direct supplier:** - **Speyside Cooperage** — supplies cask racks and stands. Contact: Ellie Jamieson, 01340 881264. Members report this as a reasonable-priced option.
**DIY/repurposing approach:** - **Standard pallet racking with strapping** — can accommodate 2 bourbon barrels lying down and strapped per pallet, making efficient use of existing warehouse infrastructure. - **Extra shelving** — members found this cheaper than purpose-built cask racks in some cases, though this depends on your storage setup and barrel dimensions.
The key trade-off: purpose-built racks from Speyside Cooperage offer dedicated design but require budget; pallet racking or shelving solutions are lower-cost but require more manual optimization for vertical space efficiency.
