When you’re moving stone, there’s no room for compromise. Granite slabs, quartzite sheets, engineered stone, marble pieces—these aren’t materials you casually strap to a trailer or stack against a wall. The job demands rugged, purpose-built A-frames that can take the weight, hold steady under pressure, and make no excuses under transport or shop conditions.
Tait Sales & Consulting LLC understands that fabrication and transport aren’t just about moving material. They’re about protecting your investment, workflow, and reputation. That’s why we carry a select range of heavy-duty A-Frames explicitly designed for stone professionals who demand reliability from every angle.
Why the Right A-Frame Isn’t Optional
Every fabricator knows what’s at stake. A misstep with a poorly built frame can lead to cracked stone, injured workers, lost time, and costly replacements. These aren’t just storage tools—they’re load-bearing workhorses that protect high-value materials during transit, staging, and in-shop handling.
Whether you’re hauling stone between job sites, staging slabs in your warehouse, or storing remnant pieces for custom cuts, your A-Frame needs to:
- Support serious weight without buckling
- Keep materials upright and secure during movement
- Fit comfortably on trucks, forklifts, and shop floors
- Hold multiple slabs without compromising accessibility
Not every frame on the market meets that standard, but the ones we carry do.
Engineered for Stone, Built for Work
Our rugged A-Frames are manufactured by leading names in the stone handling space—fabricators trust them for a reason. These aren’t general-purpose frames. They’re engineered to serve the needs of stone professionals working with dense, delicate, and oversized materials daily.
From powder-coated finishes that hold up in harsh shop environments to welded steel construction that won’t give under pressure, every detail has a purpose.
Key Features You Can Count On:
Heavy-Duty Steel Construction
Built from high-grade steel tubing, these frames are welded for long-term strength. Some units handle up to 24,000 lbs of combined load capacity—no flex, no guesswork.
Balanced Weight Distribution
Whether you’re loading one slab or a dozen, the structure is built to hold steady. Even during transit, the balanced base and low center of gravity reduce tipping risks.
Forklift Pockets or Wheels
Shop floors get busy. Having options for forklift pockets or castor wheels means you can move the frame where you need it—without the muscle strain or downtime.
Replaceable Rubber Padding
Protective rubber on the contact surfaces prevents chipping, scratching, or edge damage. Many models offer replaceable pads for long-term performance.
Multiple Sizes and Load Capacities
Whether you need a compact frame for remnant pieces or a full-length frame for slab transport, there’s a size and configuration that fits.
In the Shop or On the Road—Same Strength
A-Frames aren’t just about what happens in the warehouse. Many customers seek reliable transport frames that can be loaded on a flatbed, secured, and moved across town or the state. In both cases, safety and stability matter equally.
Our selection includes:
- Truck A-Frames: These tie-down points and reinforced crossbars stabilize heavy loads during road transit. Ideal for installers or fabricators doing delivery work.
- Shop Storage Racks: Built for stationary use, these models offer easier access to multiple slabs. Use them for organizing backstock, staging for jobs, or safely sorting materials for custom projects.
- Collapsible/Portable A-Frames: When storage space is tight, foldable options make cleanup and reorganization simple without sacrificing load capacity.
When Strength Meets Practical Design
It’s not just about muscle. The best A-Frames are designed with real job site and shop needs in mind. That includes small details like:
- Slots for vertical placement of remnants
- Wide stance for slab spacing and access
- Durable powder coating for weather and chemical resistance
- Bolt-down capability for fixed setups
These aren’t just slabs of metal welded together. They’ve tested tools for busy operations—built to make your work safer, faster, and more organized.
Which A-Frame Is Right for You?
It depends on how you work.
- If you’re a shop manager looking to organize 30+ slabs of inventory, a large, double-sided shop A-frame with high capacity and bolt-down options makes sense.
- If you’re an installer hauling finished cuts to a client’s home, a compact transport frame with secure tie-down points is your best bet.
- If you’re a fabricator working across multiple job types, a versatile mobile A-frame with forklift access and weather-resistant finish can bridge both needs.
We carry multiple models to meet each use case.
