Optimizing your warehouse setup often includes adding pallet racks to storage and picking locations. These devices are excellent for keeping similar items organized across horizontal rows, while also providing the ability to store bulk goods in the same manner they arrived at your facility on a truck.
Multiple pallet rack system configurations exist, but they all require maintenance and repairs at some point. Eastern Lift Truck Co. offers the repair and replacement services you need in the Mid-Atlantic region for peace of mind and efficiency.
The Need for Pallet Rack Service
Eastern Lift Truck Co. is a full-service provider of pallet racks. The experts on our team listen to your requests for pallet racks and help you design a warehouse layout that makes sense for your industry and products. Our custom pallet racking systems are crafted from premium materials and designed to withstand the test of time. However, several factors contribute to an ongoing need for routine maintenance and repairs:
- Negligent weight distribution: Training is essential in a warehouse. Overloading pallet racks or positioning too many units on a single beam level will compromise the structural integrity of your system.
- Using damaged pallets: Always inspect the palletized goods coming in from a loading dock. Remove any broken pallets from the equation to reduce the likelihood of products or materials crashing down below.
- Hardware loosening: A large quantity of connections is present across a pallet rack system. Daily use of loading and unloading racks can cause hardware to loosen. Only a trained professional should make adjustments.
- Forklift incidents: Your facility may use forklifts near one or both sides of a pallet rack system. These machines can cause premature wear when operators accidentally run into lower-level support beams.
