Racking Installation FAQs

Installation involves assembling the frame, securing it to the floor, and adding beams and shelves, following the manufacturer’s instructions and safety standards.

Yes, by ensuring the installation has been put together by a trained and qualified SEIRs member, this will ensure compliance with safety standards and optimal performance, though some systems can be user-installed - which is at the discretion of the individual and is not something we personally advise.

Floors should be level, strong enough to support the load, and free of cracks. Concrete is the most common flooring used.

Installation time varies. A simple setup might take a few hours, while a large, complex system can take several days.

Permitting requirements vary by location. Check with local building authorities to determine if permits are needed.

Racking Inspections FAQs

Racking inspections ensure the structural integrity and safety of the racking system, preventing accidents and ensuring compliance with regulations.

Conduct regular inspections at least once a year, with more frequent checks if the racking is heavily used or if there are known issues. Stakapal offers all its customers the opportunity to schedule an annual SEMA Racking inspection as part of our ongoing support services. These inspections are conducted by our own in-house SARI’s.

Inspections can be done by trained SARI (SEMA Approved Racking Inspector) whom are knowledgeable about racking systems and safety standards.

During a racking inspection, a SARI will look for damaged components, loose bolts, signs of overloading, proper alignment, and signs of wear or corrosion.

Unload the affected area immediately, mark it as out of service, and arrange for repairs or replacements. Do not use the damaged racking until it is properly repaired.
