Forklift Collisions & Damaged Racking

Solution

Rack Repair Kits & Guard Rails

Problem

Prospect Fastener was experiencing frequent rack damage from a narrow section in their warehouse with heavy forklift traffic. They called DAK for an end of aisle protection solution. After talking with a Project Manager, Prospect Fastener quickly realized that their damaged rack should be repaired to operate safely and efficiently.

Solution

The experts at DAK installed 27 rack repair kits to replace damaged uprights and double-high end of aisle protection to avoid future forklift collisions with the uprights.

Results

Replacing uprights can result in costly downtime in a warehouse, as all inventory needs to be removed from the racking and replaced after installation. The rack repair kits provided a minimally invasive installation, which was important to Prospect Fastener. They continued to operate through the entire installation and did not need to remove any inventory from their racking. They love the uniform look of the guard rails and are happy with how well the rack repair kits match their existing racks!
