Pallet Racking Inspections

Because what goes up, shouldn’t come down… unexpectedly.

Why Inspections Matter

Pallet racking systems quietly do a big job. But like any piece of heavy-duty gear, they cop a beating. Forklift bumps, overloading, dodgy installations — it all adds up. Regular inspections help spot trouble before it turns into a safety hazard (or worse, a costly accident).

How Often Should Racking Be Inspected?

The Australian Standard (AS4084) recommends a professional inspection every 12 months — more often if your warehouse cops a lot of traffic or if you’ve had an incident.

What We Look For

Our inspections cover all the key stuff:

  • Bent or damaged uprights and beams
  • Missing safety pins or locking clips
  • Overloaded bays
  • Misaligned frames
  • Corrosion or rust (especially in older or outdoor installs)
  • Floor fixings that have worked loose
  • General wear and tear that could cause collapse

Recommend You Check Your Racking EVERY 6 Months

What can you do to protect your staff?

If walkways are close to racking, fall barrier mesh panels should be installed. This prevents items being dislodged from above by a forklift operator on the other side.

Keep your racking checked and maintained to prevent unnecessary accidents and injury!

In addition, Queensland regulations require installers to be licensed. Unirack Australia holds a current licence (lic #QBCC-15127645).
