Troubleshooting Pallet Rack Repairs

Common damage that we find:

➡︎ Forklift & Equipment Impacts: Collisions with rack columns and beams.

➡︎ In-House Reconfigurations: Adjusting beam levels without professional guidance.

➡︎ Missing Safety Clips: Clips knocked off or dislodged, reducing rack stability.

➡︎ Unreliable Anchoring: Loose, missing, improperly installed, or damaged floor anchors.

➡︎ Missing or Insufficient Row Spacers – Back-to-back rack rows need spacers at set intervals.

➡︎ Dangerous Repairs – DIY or insufficient repairs risk system failure. Use PE-approved repair kits tailored to rack specs.

Troubleshooting Pallet Rack Repairs

RestorATION OPTIONS:

Repair Kits: Most pallet rack damage can be fixed to restore your system's capacity and safety. Rack capacity certification will include engineer-stamped load plaques for each affected rack row, verifying that the racks meet certification standards.

Replacement Components: Severe pallet rack damage may require new components. The Apex team is skilled at installing these components with minimal disruption to your operations, often unloading only the affected section rather than the entire row.

Are You Legally Responsible for Pallet Racking Inspection?

Did you know that pallet rack inspection isn't legally required? While there's no specific mandate, you are still responsible for your facility's safety per OSHA and for maintaining your racking systems per ANSI/RMI.

So what does that mean? It means that regularly performed pallet racking inspections are a must. This leaves you with two options:

  1. DIY pallet rack inspections -- if you choose this route,  Apex has resources to help, including detailed instruction videos, rack inspection checklists, and a free App to capture all the specs for any damaged components that you find.
  2. Contact Apex -- Not every operation has the time and manpower to dedicate to thorough rack inspections and all the follow-up on maintenance and repairs. In this case, it’s time to call Apex, where one call does it all!
