Ensuring the safety and longevity of your industrial shelving units requires regular maintenance and adherence to safety guidelines. Below, click on the tabs to learn how to help keep your industrial style shelving and racking systems in top condition.
Routine inspections are crucial for maintaining the safety and functionality of your industrial shelving and racking systems. Check for any signs of damage such as dents, rust, or warping. Ensure all bolts and connectors are tight and the shelving is stable. Inspections should be carried out at least once every quarter or after any incident that could potentially cause damage.
Every component of industrial pallet storage racks and shelving has a specific weight capacity. Exceeding this limit can lead to structural failures and accidents. Always check the manufacturer’s specifications for weight limits and ensure they are clearly marked on the shelving. Regularly train staff on the importance of adhering to these limits to prevent overloading.
Keeping your industrial shelving units clean not only prolongs their life but also reduces safety hazards. Remove debris and spills immediately to prevent rusting and slipping hazards. For metal shelving, use mild soap and water for cleaning; avoid using harsh chemicals that could corrode the metal.
Proper stacking techniques are essential for the safety of industrial shelving. Heavier items should be stored at the lower levels while lighter items should be placed higher up. Ensure that all items are evenly distributed and do not hang over the edges of the shelves. Use organisational tools like bins and dividers to keep smaller items secure.
Employees should be regularly trained on the correct usage of commercial shelving and safety procedures. This includes proper loading techniques, what to do in case of a structural concern, and emergency procedures. Regular refreshers on these topics can significantly reduce the risk of accidents.
When dealing with heavy items or high volumes, the use of appropriate loading equipment such as forklifts or pallet jacks is recommended. This not only ensures safety but also helps in maintaining the structural integrity of your industrial racking systems.
By following these maintenance and safety tips, you can ensure that your industrial shelving units remain safe and functional for years to come. Remember, a small investment in routine maintenance can prevent costly repairs and accidents in the future.
