Racking Audits
The Australian Standard calls for regular safety inspections of all pallet racking to ensure that it continues to function within the manufacturers’ original specifications. Rack Audit Management can look after your Pallet Racking obligations through our programme of scheduled pallet racking safety audit inspections.
We first prepare a schematic drawing of your warehouse, and then as required, we will attend to your premises and perform a “floor level” inspection per AS 4084 – 2012. The schematic is used to document the location of any damage.
A report is provided outlining rack damage and action required to resolve any issues of safety or non-compliance, including:
- ensuring correct installation, application, and use of equipment
- confirm that the safe working loads are adhered to
- verify that the racking installation has not been altered from the original specifications
- detail the type and location of incidences of damage
- examine the plumb of the racking
- check connectors of beams and the presence of beam safety clips
- inspect connectors for deformation or signs of cracking of the welds
- confirm correct safe load signage.
We will prepare for your consideration a comprehensive report and a competitive no-obligation quotation for the complete restoration of your pallet racking to Australian Standard.
Occupational Health and Safety
The O.H.&S. Act imposes a duty of care on those in control of the workplace to take all reasonable precautions to ensure that plant and equipment present no risk to the health or safety of anyone. It is far easier to deal with safety issues before they become a problem.
A planned approach to safety is essential.
Capital Equipment Maintenance
Regular maintenance and repair protects the value of capital equipment. This applies equally to racking. Regular inspection and repair increases the working life of the rack substantially, reducing unnecessary depreciation in both dollar terms and usability. Rack Audit Management can assist you in planning and monitoring the ongoing maintenance of your racking.
Record Management
Retention of inspection and maintenance records is crucial. A documented procedure and audit trail are an asset if you are called upon to substantiate your operational processes. Rack Audit Management stores all your records for you, safely encrypted, if you are ever required to demonstrate your compliance.
Repairs
Rack Audit Management’s crew has many years of experience in the industry and were chosen for their expertise. We do not subcontract your job to third parties.
Every repair or modification undertaken follows the most current Australian Standard (4084 – 2012 Steel Storage Rack.) We use only Genuine Original Equipment Manufacturer materials in our repairs and installations. We ensure that your pallet racking continues to function within the manufacturers’ original specifications.
Each Audit Repair is issued a Certificate of Repairs confirming compliance to AS4084 – 2012.
