Structural Base Frames

Structural Frame Damage
 

Our structural base kits are used in the repair of structural frames. This unique kit has a number of different features that can be added to improve their efficiency and long term use.  

​

The features of Structural Base Frames allows future damaged front frames to be easily removed without any cutting or welding by simply inserting a new Base frame piece.

​

Additionally we have bolt in braces allowing future damaged to be simply removed and replaced.

​

One of the features that can be added are our redesigned load beam with a reverse profile for protecting labels and mesh decking from damage.  These beams can be used in the Base Frame or your existing structural and rolled form frames.

Racking 

 

Roll formed warehouse racking is used in all types of industries and styles such as double deep, VNA, case flow systems and many others.  Damage to your racking can result in locked out locations, safety hazards and possible damage to inventory due to structural failure.

​

The Super Fame is designed for easy removal of the lower portion of the front frame column as well as the bolt in bracing panel where 95% of damage typically occurs.

​

When installed in a new application, our Super Frame eliminates the need for expensive repair kits and/or time consuming frame swaps.  This in turn minimizes disruption to your operations, decreasing total cost of ownership, and finally increases the overall safety of the system as it is now easier than ever to maintain your racking system.

Box Guards

Reduce Shrinkage
 

Product loss (shrinkage) happens in many ways and our box guards can help reduce this.

​

When numerous pallets and products are stacked it is hard to determine if something has shifted, these occurrences may not be found until after the pallet has been removed or the product is damaged.

​

Our Box Guards are easy to install, come in various lengths and can be used in both structural and rolled formed frames.  If you are tired on figuring out how to fix the problem the Box Guard is the solution. 

​

See below some of the problems found and our Box Guards.

Inspections for Damaged
Racking

 

Pallet rack inspections are an important process that helps ensure the safety and functionality of storage systems.

 

Our inspection process involves examining the rack components, including the uprights, beams, braces, and connections, for signs of damage or wear that could compromise the integrity of the system.  

​

Here are some key steps involved in our inspections:

  1. Conduct a visual inspection: Visually inspect the pallet rack system for any signs of damage or wear. Look for cracks, dents, rust, or other indications of damage that could affect the structural integrity of the system.

  2. Check for levelness: Ensure that the pallet racks are level and plumb, and that the uprights are properly anchored to the floor or wall.

  3. Look for signs of corrosion: Check for signs of corrosion, particularly in areas where there is exposure to moisture or chemicals.

  4. Check for missing or damaged components: Check for missing or damaged components such as beam connectors, locking pins, or bracing. Replace any missing or damaged components immediately.

  5. Photos: During the inspection we take photos of the identified locations, if requested these are shared with the client and used when providing the corrective actions and reference for future examinations.

  6. Document the inspection: Document the results of the inspection, including any issues that were identified and any corrective actions that should be addressed.

  7. Schedule regular inspection: ​Schedule regular inspections of pallet racking system to ensure that it remains in good condition and continues to operate safely

​

Other services we can provide:

  • Design proposals for increased pallet positions

  • Engineering for load capacities

  • Placards

​

Our inspections offer clients a comprehensive document where areas of critical damage can be addressed for budgets and future maintenance.

Types of pallet racking damage that can effect structural load capacity

Damage Inspection

Carbon Footprint Reduction

We can extend the life of your existing system with our products.

Damaged racking effects load capacity and replacing or repairing this can result in the full height removal of your system.

​

This causes tons of wasted material to be recycled when the damage is only in a few locations.

​

We help you reduce your carbon footprint.

Our products including the Structural Base Frame and Super Frame are designed for easy removal of just the damaged frames, not the entire unit greatly reducing your future recycling load.

​

LESS WASTE WITH OUR FEATURES
