RackGuard Netting Systems
RackGuard netting is a cost-effective, engineered solution designed to make warehouses safer for employees and visitors alike. RackGuard is installed on the back of storage racking to protect aisle ways, work areas and machinery from products that may become dislodged and fall to the ground below.
RackGuard is an engineered “system” consisting of load-rated netting panels, custom engineered offset brackets, engineered frame extensions (when needed), aircraft cable and related rigging hardware. The netting panels are custom fit to accurately protect each and every racking layout. Netting panels that are made-to-measure will provide the safest option for back-of-rack protection. RackGuard netting systems have been designed and tested specifically for industrial racking applications. RackGuard has different netting materials for different load requirements depending on pallet load weights.
Passive Vs. Active Health and Safety Systems
Typical passive solutions include Guardrails or Netting Systems like RackGuard.
Below are our RackGuard Netting Systems:
Flushmount RackGuard Netting Systems
These RackGuard netting systems are designed to protect employees from falling product. The netting of these systems sits flush to the racking system, helping to ensure that no product will fall. Ideal for applications where there is no pallet overhang or product is loaded by hand.
Standard Offset RackGuard Netting Systems
RackGuard netting systems typically use engineered offset brackets to run the cables and allow the netting panels to be installed a certain distance from the face of the racking. This allows for pallet/product overhang. Standard offsets have an allowance for 4” or 6” settings, but offsets are available in sizes ranging from 2” up to 12”.
Flue Space Netting Systems
Product damage and loss as a result of falling into the flue space between racking is a growing issue – one that costs companies a lot of money. Installing a netting system in the flue space will help reduce this product loss.
Horizontal Rack Netting Systems
Our horizontal rack netting systems are designed to ensure the safety of workers who have to enter racking bays to access product and are at risk of having a box fall from an upper level. They are also used in tunnel applications in racking setups.
OFFSET BRACKET
The flue space between racking systems is often an area that sees a high volume of product falls and damages that workers are unable to access. Our Rack Netting System can be installed within this space to help reduce product loss and keep product from getting mixed up with another pallet load.
