Why Are Racking Inspections Essential?

Warehouse environments are fast-moving, with heavy loads, forklifts, and frequent stock movement putting constant stress on pallet racking. Over time, this can lead to wear, structural weaknesses, and potential hazards. Regular inspections help:

✔ Identify and repair the damage before it escalates
✔ Ensure compliance with industry safety regulations
✔ Prevent costly rack collapses and workplace accidents
✔ Extend the lifespan of your racking system
✔ Avoid financial penalties due to non-compliance

Under HSE guidelines (HSG76), warehouse racking should be inspected at least once a year by a competent person. More frequent checks may be required if damage is detected.

What Our Telford Racking Inspections Cover

Our comprehensive racking inspections assess:

  • Structural damage – Checking for bent beams, loose connections, and frame deterioration
  • Load-bearing capacity – Ensuring weight limits are not exceeded
  • Installation integrity – Verifying correct setup and stability
  • Risk assessment compliance – Aligning with HSE and SEMA standards
  • Damage classification – Using a traffic light system to prioritise required actions:

🟢 Green: Minor damage, safe to use

🟡 Amber: Not critical but requires monitoring

🔴 Red: Immediate offloading and repair required
