Pallet Racking Inspection Aberdare
Aberdare hosts heavy fabrication automotive components and storage requiring fast repairs and SEMA racking safety. Rackstor's inspectors are SARI accredited, and in Aberdare we report on uprights, beams, bracing, baseplates, locks and load notices as a matter of course.
Where We Inspect in Aberdare
Our visits in Aberdare take in Aberaman Industrial Estate and Hirwaun Industrial Estate and the rest of the town's commercial premises. Each Aberdare report sets out a prioritised repair list, so you can deal with red risks first and plan amber repairs within the recommended timescale.
Inspection Priorities for Aberdare Sites
Some risks are common to the operations described above, so our Aberdare inspectors look closely at them.
- Heavy parts and irregular stock put strain on beams, so we check deflection against the Span/200 limit and confirm pallets are sitting correctly on the beam line.
- Frames are checked for out-of-plumb against the BS EN 15635 limit, measured rather than judged by eye.
Your Legal Duty in Aberdare
PUWER 1998 requires racking to be maintained in a safe condition and inspected by a competent person, and HSE guidance HSG76 recommends an expert inspection at least every 12 months. Our Aberdare reports follow BS EN 15635 and the SEMA Code of Practice, so the record stands up if the HSE or your insurer asks for it. The same rules apply whether your Aberdare site is a single unit or a large distribution building.
