REPAIR PALLET RACK DAMAGE | Rack Repair Process

As a leading pallet rack repair provider, Purdy Company’s expert staff will guide you through a complete step-by-step process to repair your pallet rack damage correctly and safely. We help our customers properly identify the danger signs of pallet rack damage and the at-risk conditions that may exist in your warehouse. Our staff is specifically trained to conduct a professional evaluation of your pallet rack damage.

The first step in any pallet rack repair process is a properly executed survey. A proper rack repair survey will identify the pallet rack components that show visible signs of pallet rack damage or distress and are ranked according to severity.

These surveys must be performed by a qualified and properly trained pallet rack professional who is skilled in pallet rack damage inspection and repair solutions. An accurate rack repair survey will include detailed information such as:

  • Identify the location of the pallet rack damage
  • Record visible rack damage
  • Select the correct repair solution

In most cases, we can classify all pallet rack damage in one of the three levels of severity as follows:

LEVEL 1

  • Critical/severe pallet rack damage – Immediate action required
  • Significant deformations greater than ½”
  • Missing or broken components
  • Broken welds or torn metal
  • Original capacity has been severely compromised

LEVEL 2

  • Moderate rack damage – Additional attention recommended
  • General deformations up to ½”
  • Slightly bent or twisted components
  • Original capacity has been compromised

LEVEL 3

  • Light rack damage – Observation recommended
  • Cosmetic and light surface damage
  • Keep under observation for worsening condition
  • No immediate action required

  • Once the survey is complete, Purdy Company will provide a proposal that details the location of each damaged pallet rack, level of severity for each rack, description of the recommended repairs, and cost for the repair project.
  • Materials and labor costs will be itemized and a total cost will be provided. Rack repairs can be broken down into phases to help keep within a specific budget.
