Mathand is proud to offer our customers installation of Upright Repair Kits. When a pallet rack gets damaged, it’s commonly caused by forklift damage, an overloaded rack, operational changes not supported by the rack design, faulty equipment, or racks with mixed manufacture component combinations. One of the best steps you can take to prevent injury and avoid hefty OSHA fines is to frequently inspect your pallet racks for damage.
Inspection
When you perform a visual pallet rack inspection, be sure to look for the following signs of potential damage:
- Tilted or misalignment of beams and racks
- Overloaded or misloaded racks
- Rust or corrosion
- Bent or damaged uprights and beams
- Incorrect beam hardware or faulty attachments
Repair vs Replace
The benefits of repairing your pallet rack instead of replacing it
- Limited warehouse workflow disruption
- Less loading and unloading of new parts for installation
- The same pallet rack repair kit may be used on damages at similar heights.
- Can be less expensive than shipping new uprights, especially when your current uprights are custom or very tall.
