Assemble Racking Components:
-
Design Plan Review: Review the design plan to understand the specific assembly instructions and layout.
-
Installation Sequence: Follow a systematic installation sequence, starting with the uprights. Erect each upright at designated intervals according to the layout.
-
Beams and Braces: Install horizontal beams between the uprights, ensuring they are securely locked into place. Attach diagonal and horizontal braces to provide additional stability.
-
Safety Accessories: Install any necessary safety accessories, such as rack guards and column protectors, to enhance the system’s safety and durability.

Anchoring
-
Secure Racks to the Warehouse Floor:
-
Anchor Selection: Select appropriate anchors based on the warehouse floor type and the weight the racking system will support.
-
Drilling Holes: Use a drill to create precise holes in the warehouse floor at the base of each upright.
-
Anchor Installation: Insert anchors into the drilled holes and secure them with bolts. Ensure that each anchor is tightly fastened to prevent any movement of the racking system.
-
Alignment
Ensure Racks are Properly Aligned and Leveled:
-
Initial Alignment:
-
Use plumb lines or laser levels to ensure that the uprights are vertically aligned. Adjust as necessary to maintain proper alignment.
-
Beam Alignment: Check that all horizontal beams are level. Use a spirit level or laser level to verify and adjust if needed.
-
Final Adjustments: After initial alignment, perform final adjustments to ensure the entire racking system is square and level. This step is crucial for the stability and safety of the racking system.
-
Verification: Re-verify the alignment and leveling after all adjustments have been made to confirm that the racking system meets the design specifications and safety standards.
