Missing pallet racking locking pins — what should you do?
Practical steps to take when a pallet racking beam locking device is missing.
A missing locking device should not be ignored or replaced with an improvised part.
Protect the area
Follow your site safety procedures and prevent further disturbance where necessary. Do not assume a substitute pin or bolt is suitable.
Get competent advice
If racking is damaged, displaced or incorrectly installed, arrange assessment by a competent person. Replacing a pin alone does not make damaged racking safe.
