Pallet Racking Inspections & Repairs

During the day to day running of a warehouse, the safety of pallet racking can be often overlooked. Frames and beams can get damaged from a fork lift trucks impact and cause them to be potentially lethal.

Storage Designs offer a rack inspection service and follow up replacement and repair of damaged racking. We will carry out a check on your pallet racking system and produce a report, detailing any defects. Checks carried out include:

• Damaged Uprights.
• Damaged Beams.
• Missing Retaining Pins.
• Missing or Damaged Floor Fixings.
• Damaged Rack Protection Barriers/Bollards.
• Damaged Frame Bracing.

Why risk a potential health and safety investigation or worse, a fatality or serious injury to an employee.

Under the current legislation, it is the employer’s responsibility to provide a safe environment for all warehouse personnel. The following statutory regulations apply:

• Health & Safety at work act 1975 section 2.
• Provision and use of work equipment regulations 1998.

“Failure to address damaged racking can result in an accident with possible injury to personnel and subsequent prosecution.”
