  2. Inspect the Pallet Rack for Damage • Because of their positioning, pallet racks are especially vulnerable to damage from forklifts. Accumulative wear and tear from even light impacts can eventually harm the structural integrity of the storage racks.

  3. Check Beam Deflection • In addition, you should calculate the beam deflection. Deflection is how much beams bow or sag under pressure from a load. It’s usually a sign that the rack is overburdened.

  4. Check Rack Uprights • The terms “plumb” and “straight” are used to describe the straightness and verticality of the rack uprights. For more even load distribution, make sure your uprights are plumb and straight.

  5. Check Beam Connectors • The beam connectors join the uprights to the beams. A variety of connector styles are available, both generic and proprietary.

  6. Check the Floor • Used racks may have been installed on an uneven floor, which can cause the racks to be unstable. Uneven floors can also damage the racks over time.

  7. Check the Feet • The feet of your racks are what keep them level and in place, so it’s essential to make sure that they’re in good condition.
