What is a vertical rack used for?
A vertical rack is used to store long and narrow items such as mouldings, pipes, profiles, or beams in an organized and easily accessible way.
How should vertical racks be loaded to ensure safety?
Vertical racks should be loaded with items standing upright, with heavier items placed at the back for stability. Use dividers to separate goods and distribute the weight evenly. For added safety, the rack should be anchored to the floor and regularly inspected for damage or instability.
How much weight can each pull-out arm handle?
Each pull-out arm in our vertical racks typically supports around 100–150 kg, depending on the model and configuration. Contact us for more specific information
Are the vertical racks certified according to current safety standards?

How often should vertical racks be inspected?
Vertical racks should be inspected at least once a year by qualified personnel, according to the Work Environment Authority’s regulations and standards (e.g., EN 15635). In cases of intensive use or suspected damage, inspections should be carried out more frequently. A visual inspection should be performed regularly by staff at least once a week to identify any visible damage or signs of overloading. Contact us to schedule an inspection.
