Pallet Racking Inspections
Large scale storage systems raise a variety of safety risks if not professionally installed and maintained; pallet racking of all kinds can suffer installation faults or damage from a fork lift collision, and it’s your responsibility to ensure that racking is still secure and safe afterward.
We meet SEMA inspection standards in our checks ensuring the pallet racking is still fit for purpose and advising on reparations or replacement where necessary.
Periodic checks are essential to comply with the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations (PUWER) 1998 and should not be limited to 6 month periods if a collision with a fork lift occurs or damage is sustained from falling stock or other equipment.
As a leading supplier and professional installer of both new pallet racking and used pallet racking equipment we can also provide those replacements quickly and at incredibly competitive prices, ensuring your downtime and disruption is as limited as possible.
Regular pallet racking inspections form an essential part of your health and safety policy in any warehousing or storage environment.
Pallet racking failures can and do happen.
The result can be expensive damage to stock and potential litigation from injured staff.
At Acorn Storage we offer expert racking safety inspections at competitive prices, enabling you to comply with the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations (PUWER) 1998.
With 25 years’ industry knowledge, our experienced technical staff can give detailed racking inspections compliant with SEMA industry standards.
Unlike many other companies offering professional pallet racking safety checks, at Acorn Storage we can also advise you on the most cost effective way of replacing or repairing any racking that is no longer deemed suitable with our own new and used pallet racking service; saving you time and money and offering you a one-stop shop for racking inspection and repair.
Racking inspections shouldn’t just be limited to 6 month periodic checks. When a forklift or other heavy machinery causes damage to racking, it should be fully checked to determine if the damage is only superficial. You have a duty of care to your employees that in this day and age cannot be ignored.
Keep your staff, customers and products safe from damaged pallet racking or poor installations with a comprehensive safety check by our experienced team. We have been working with pallet racking for over a quarter of a century and ensure you meet every compliance requirement.
Some of our regular clients are based across Kent, London, Surrey and Sussex and nationwide in cities including Birmingham, Leeds, Glasgow, Sheffield, Bradford, Edinburgh, Liverpool, Manchester, Bristol, Wakefield, Cardiff, Coventry, Nottingham, Leicester, Sunderland and Brighton.
