Wire RACK GUARD AND GUARDING

Safety first! A newer and increasingly more popular, in demand Pallet Rack safety innovation is Rack Guarding. Regulatory demands for safety continue to increase, and our innovative rack guard design is an affordable, durable way to ensure your materials stay secure from falling into walk aisles. While Rack Guarding has been around for years, it has become a commonly ordered, quick-ship item for us.

The Husky Rack & Wire Rack Guard is constructed of heavy duty, 8-gauge, 2” x 2” square welded wire mesh, welded into angle frames for strength and rigidity. These Rack Guards are easy to install and bolt right onto the rear Upright columns. They include several different “off-set” or “set back” depths to accommodate different depth skids to hang over the rear Beams.

• Standard in-stock sizes: 3’ x 8’, 3’ x 9’, 3’ x 10’, 3’ x 12’, 4’ x 8’, 4’ x 9’, 4’ x 10’, 4’ x 12’, 5’ x 8’, 5’ x 9’, 5’ x 10’ and 5’ x 12
• Offset (in-stock) Lengths (4 required per panel): Flush, 4”, 6”, 8”, 10” and 12”

PALLET RACK SAFETY NETS AND NETTING

Another common safety method for ensuring Employee and product safety is modular Safety Nets, Straps and Cables by Manufacturers like Adrian Safety Solutions and Carron Net Company. These safety nets are modular, install in minutes and are relatively inexpensive.

• Mounts and removes quickly to existing racking with no retrofit needed
• High visibility for easy safety checks
• Standard sizes of the pallet rack safety straps are available for 8’, 8.5’, 9’, 10’ and 12’ bays
• Each safety netting is 60″ in height
• Assembly (netting with hardware attachments): 1,600 lb. break strength
• Knotless mesh is 1.97″ x 1.97″
• 4 corner hooks are sewn in on each net

LOAD BACKSTOP BEAMS-INTERLAKE-MECALUX

Load Backstop Beams are the perfect solution to prevent pallets or skids from being pushed off the backside of the rack. They are also beneficial in positioning the pallet or skid perfectly on the Rack Beams (remember, the skid should hang over an inch or two on the front and an inch or two at the rear), this allows the load to be applied directly to the Beams, as they are designed to be loaded! These innovative Load Backstop Beams create a safer work environment… preventing improperly loaded pallets from potentially falling off racks and preventing a catastrophic workplace injury.

These Interlake-Mecalux Load Backstop Beams are a significantly less expensive option to the Load Stop Brackets (below). These unique Load Backstop Beams are a one-piece, all welded design and are ordered by Beam length. They closely resemble a standard Teardrop style Beam but are built in several different “offsets”, with 3” being the most common. They only come in one beam height, these Beams are designed to prevent improper pallet placement, they do not support any type of weight.

One other note… these Load Backstop Beams are super easy to install… they are as easy to install as installing a single Pallet Rack Beam-no tools required!

Pallet Rack Stop BRACKETS: Adapt-A-Stop

Pallet Rack Load Stops easily cover the length of several bays, adapting to a variety of bay sizes, using standard pallet rack horizontal load beams, strut channel, or slotted vertical beams. Food storage warehouses will greatly benefit from having aligned pallets since complying with rodent trap placement regulations is made easier. Pallets stay in the bay, standardizing clearances from walls and other items nearby and complying with fire code regulations for maintaining longitudinal flue spaces.

Pallet Rack Load Stop connection brackets protect & help comply with…

• Protect warehouses, facilities, & stored product from forklift or pallet jack damage.
• Make aligning pallets in bays easier by providing a sturdy guide.
• Regulate space between pallets & walls or aisles.
• Guarantee rodent trap space along walls; fulfilling food storage regulations.
• Comply with building & fire code ordinances ensuring required flue space
• Improve warehouse safety by keeping product from falling off racks.
