Heavy-duty warehouse storage equipment is used in every kind of industry – from clothing to medical to logistics. Every kind of industry has different requirements for its storage systems, but the accompanying problems have also appeared throughout all.

Due to the lack of clear professional standards for warehouse racking, buyers get confused over the quality of the purchased racking and the acceptance standards. When you have a professional company design and install the racking, it is a different story as they follow every step of compliance and acceptance towards pallet racking and commercial shelving.

Looking and Feeling Right

Upon installation, the vertical deviation of the shelf piece should not be more than 10mm, the height deviation of the beam on the same layer is +10mm, and the deviation of the centre distance between the bottom of the column of the adjacent shelf piece is +2mm, and the misalignment deviation of the shelf piece in the same lane and the same row is not more than 5mm.

The surface of the warehouse shelving should be sprayed evenly, with no damage, peeling coating or oil stains. Although it can be unavoidable to bump the goods during transportation, if the original is not seriously distorted or deformed, it is normal to install accessories. Once the shelves are accepted, they need to be checked to ensure they are neat and unified, form and the accessories are complete.

Install to Plan

Installation requires adhering to the layout of the drawings, with the spacing of the beams on each floor strictly following the drawing dimensions.

The welding seams on the warehouse shelving surface should have no defects such as cracks, slag incursions, welding flashes, burn-through, arc craters or needle-shaped pores. You need to check all of these before accepting your racking or shelving system upon delivery.

Be sure that all of the parts and joints where dust and water would accumulate, as well as the corrosion conditions of parts that can be affected by alternating patterns such as dry and wet. It is key to inspect the damage and rust conditions of hidden parts of your system.

Check on Delivery

You also need to confirm with your supplier that the received shelves are delivered according to the order, with all accessories complete, colour according to the sample and arriving in the required packaging and transport materials.
