Wire Pallet Rack Decking and Your Business

Double waterfall wire pallet racks are constructed for maximum versatility. Soft and strong metal wire structure and strong supporting beams enable the rack to securely hold heavy objects. Wire pallet decking also improves airflow, prevents long clean-ups due to over-loading of concrete decks, and facilitates light to pass, brightening up your workspace. This type of wire rack is a popular choice among retailers and warehouses because it can be installed on a variety of surfaces and is an excellent way to store merchandise while it is being stored.

It is important to install wire decking properly so that it is not damaged in case of any accident or misuse. Pallets should be placed on the decking with the legs on the bottom first and the pallets on top. The pallets will sit flush. Once the legs are secured, the pallets will sit flush against the sides of the decking. It should be sturdy and show little propensity to move if it gets nudged or pushed.

To prevent the deck from moving, it is a good idea to have the rack anchored in place before installation with the use of safety pins or clips. Obviously, you should avoid putting your rack in an area where the ground is unstable. No amount of anchors or safety measures is going to make up for the bad placement of a rack. You should comply with your local government's rules and regulations in order to protect your products and people from injury and damage. For example, if the rack is set on a slant, then the danger of being around it multiples. You may as well avoid the situation altogether if you can.

In order to maintain the weight of metal pallets, it is recommended that you allow the racks to sit for at least twelve months between uses. The longer the wait, the longer it will take for the racks to settle to the bottom, and will be more difficult to stack the pallets when they are moved.

It is a good idea to replace pallets when they become damaged or begin to tear. wear out due to excessive usage. For instance, if the wood begins to warp or rot, replacing the pallets will allow the shelf to continue its useful life. If the metal becomes distorted, it will not be possible to stack them without ripping the wooden decking apart.
