Safety Audits & Inspections

Regular rack audits and inspections aren’t just a safety and compliance issue – they are a vital maintenance tool that can identify and resolve hidden problems before they eventuate and result in days of lost productivity and down-time. 

Rack safety inspections must be carried out once every 12 months in order to be compliant with the minimum requirement of Australian Standard AS4084-2012 and racking that does not meet Australian Standards could be viewed as a causal or contributing factor to a workplace injury.

Our experienced auditors will perform a comprehensive examination of your racking structure, provide you with a detailed inspection report and a certificate of compliance once all requirements are fulfilled, giving you peace of mind.  

Our Rack Safety Specialists are the only accredited and trained Rack Safety Auditors in South Australia that are approved by Dexion to carry out Rack Safety Audits on Dexion racking. We also offer comprehensive Safety Audits for all other brands of racking.

SCHEDULED SERVICE PLAN Program

Adelaide Shelving offers Scheduled Service Plans (SSP) for all racking systems, regardless of brand, to protect both you and your investment.
