Racking System Maintenance

The MSZ EN 15635 standard clearly defines the requirements for the operation, inspection, and maintenance of warehouse racking systems.

During inspections, the most common issues identified typically involve:

  • deformed or impact-damaged rack uprights
  • bent load beams
  • missing or damaged safety locking elements
  • improper anchoring or damaged base plates
  • overloaded or improperly used rack sections

These defects represent not only serious safety hazards, but also potential regulatory and insurance risks.

Repairs Using Certified Pre-Owned Components

In many cases, a complete replacement of the racking system is not necessary.

Arborator Bt. offers the possibility of replacing damaged components with tested and certified pre-owned parts, which are:

  • compliant with relevant technical standards
  • structurally sound and load-bearing
  • fully compatible with the existing racking system
  • significantly more cost-effective than new components

This solution is particularly advantageous for older or discontinued racking systems, where sourcing new components may be difficult or disproportionately expensive.

When Is Immediate Repair Necessary?

Racking system repairs cannot be postponed if:

  • the inspection identifies red or amber risk classifications
  • visible deformation or structural instability is present
  • the load-bearing capacity of the rack becomes uncertain
  • safety locking elements are missing or damaged
  • the safe operation of the warehouse cannot be guaranteed

Timely repairs help prevent more severe structural damage, reduce downtime, and ensure continuous warehouse operations.
