New Installations
A newly installed system generally needs a review before it is loaded, unless it was built exactly as shown on an engineer-stamped drawing. We will tell you which side of that line your job falls on.
Damaged uprights and missing capacity signage are a real liability. We assess the racking you already own, repair what has failed, and issue the paperwork that makes it legal to load.
Racking takes a beating. A single forklift strike to an upright can cut the safe capacity of an entire row, and it rarely gets reported.
We inspect the system you already have, frame by frame. Bent uprights, deflected beams, missing safety clips, loose footplates and overloaded bays all get logged, photographed and priced, so you know exactly what needs doing and what can wait.
Where components have failed, we repair or replace them. Then we verify the load capacities and issue the engineering paperwork and rated capacity signage that Ontario law requires.
A Pre-Start Health and Safety Review is a legal requirement in Ontario in specific circumstances. Here are the ones that come up most, and the exception that saves a lot of clients money.
A newly installed system generally needs a review before it is loaded, unless it was built exactly as shown on an engineer-stamped drawing. We will tell you which side of that line your job falls on.
Moving beams to different elevations changes the load capacity of the frame. The original rating no longer applies, and the signage on the end of the row is now wrong.
Racking moved to a new building sits on a different slab, with different seismic and loading conditions. It has to be assessed again in its new home.
If an upright has been struck and repaired or replaced, the run needs verifying before it goes back into service. This is the one most often skipped.
If an inspector has flagged your racking, you need documentation quickly. Tell us on the form and we will prioritise the visit.
If a new system is installed exactly as shown on the engineer-stamped drawing, a PSR is usually not required. Separately, the OHSA still requires signage showing your rated capacity. We will tell you which document you actually need before you pay for anything, and sometimes the answer is a smaller job than you expected.
We mark the floor using engineered drawings to ensure perfectly aligned aisles and clearances.
Uprights are assembled and raised, then temporarily braced before the cross beams are positioned.
Beams are set to your specific elevation heights and all hardware is tightened to strict tolerances.
The entire structure is permanently bolted into the concrete slab for maximum stability.
Our installation teams arrive fully equipped. We manage the heavy machinery, the tools, and the cleanup so you do not have to lift a finger.
No. We specialize in phased installations. We barricade safe work zones and build your racking system section by section so your forklifts and staff can continue working in the rest of the building.
We do. We provide all the necessary engineer stamped drawings and handle the permit process with the municipality to ensure your new system is completely legally compliant.
This entirely depends on the footprint of the racking system and the height of the frames. After our initial site assessment, we will give you a concrete timeline alongside your quote.
