Updates to the Australian Standard (AS 4084:2023) have shifted pallet racking inspections from a recommendation to a mandatory requirement. Companies are now legally responsible for ensuring an experienced professional conducts a full audit every 12 months. This audit confirms the structure is free from defects and that load signs correctly reflect the current racking configuration.
Absolute Storage provides a dedicated team of experienced auditors to inspect your facility. Engaging an independent specialist ensures that all damage and safety concerns are objectively identified. Our comprehensive reports utilise the WorkSafe traffic light system to categorise the severity of any issues, providing clear locations and photographic evidence for easy reference.
A vital part of the inspection is verifying that your load signs are accurate and compliant. We check that beam levels match the original design, as even minor height changes can significantly alter the load capacity. If your configuration has changed, we can recalculate the weight limits and supply updated, compliant load signs.
Following the audit, we provide a fully costed quote for any necessary repairs or replacements. With an extensive stock of new Schaefer materials and used components for brands like Colby, Stow, and Dexion, we ensure minimal downtime.
Final Sign-off: Once repairs are completed, an audit sign is placed on the racking to certify to your staff and clients that the system is safe and fully compliant with Australian Standards.
