Professional Warehouse Racking Maintenance

Warehouse racking experiences daily use, forklift movements and repeated loading and unloading. Over time, accidental impacts, damaged components and general wear can affect the condition of your storage systems.

Regular maintenance helps identify issues that need attention and supports the ongoing management of your warehouse racking.

Our racking maintenance services can include:

Checking the condition of existing racking
Replacing damaged racking components where appropriate
Addressing issues identified during inspections
Reviewing racking protection and safety accessories
Supporting planned maintenance requirements
Recommending repairs, alterations or replacement systems where needed

We work with you to identify the appropriate work for your warehouse and minimise avoidable disruption to your operations.

Planned Racking Maintenance

A planned approach to racking maintenance can help businesses address issues before they develop into more significant problems.

Depending on your site and requirements, we can discuss maintenance visits, identified remedial work and ongoing support for your storage systems.

Planned maintenance can help you:

Identify damage and maintenance requirements
Keep track of outstanding remedial work
Reduce the risk of avoidable operational disruption
Maintain existing storage systems where suitable
Plan component replacements and future improvements

Maintenance requirements will depend on the type of racking, its condition, operating environment and manufacturer recommendations.

Racking Maintenance Following an Inspection

If your warehouse has recently undergone a racking inspection, you may have outstanding maintenance or remedial actions to address.

A-Z Storage Systems works alongside its sister company, A-Z Rack Inspections Ltd, which provides inspections by SEMA Approved Racking Inspectors (SARIs).

Where an inspection report identifies damage or recommends remedial work, A-Z Storage Systems can discuss the required work and provide a separate quotation where appropriate.

Our services can support you with:

Reviewing identified remedial requirements
Replacing damaged components
Addressing racking protection issues
Altering or extending existing racking where suitable
Recommending replacement systems when repairs are not appropriate

A maintenance visit or repair does not replace the need for a competent expert racking inspection where one is required.

Racking Damage & Remedial Work

Racking damage should be reported promptly and assessed appropriately. Even apparently minor damage may need further attention, depending on its location, severity and the type of component affected.

We can provide support with remedial work involving:

Damaged upright frames
Bent or damaged beams
Damaged horizontal and diagonal bracing
Baseplates and floor fixings
Racking guards and protection
Missing or damaged safety components

Where a component is damaged, the appropriate action may be repair, replacement or replacement of the affected section of racking. Work should follow relevant manufacturer requirements and use suitable components.

Important: Racking that presents a significant safety concern should be dealt with promptly, with appropriate controls put in place until the necessary remedial work has been completed.

Racking Maintenance FAQs

Can you carry out maintenance after a racking inspection?

Yes. If an inspection identifies remedial work, A-Z Storage Systems can discuss the required work and provide a separate quotation where appropriate.

What is the difference between racking maintenance and racking inspections?

Maintenance deals with ongoing upkeep and remedial work. An expert racking inspection assesses the condition and use of the installation and records findings in an inspection report. Both can form part of a wider racking safety management programme.

How much does racking maintenance cost?

Costs depend on the size and type of your racking system, its condition, the components involved and the work required. Contact us to discuss your warehouse and request a tailored quotation.

How often should warehouse racking be maintained?

Maintenance arrangements should reflect the type of racking, operating conditions, manufacturer recommendations and the results of regular checks. Racking should be monitored routinely, with damage reported promptly and remedial work arranged as required.

What is included in racking maintenance?

Depending on your requirements, maintenance may include reviewing identified issues, replacing damaged components, checking racking protection and arranging remedial work. The scope will depend on the condition and configuration of your storage system.

Can you maintain existing pallet racking?

Yes. We can discuss maintenance and remedial work for existing pallet racking systems, subject to their condition, configuration and the availability of appropriate components.
