Keeping Your Warehouse Safe and Compliant

Damaged or overloaded racking is one of the most common — and preventable — causes of serious warehouse accidents. True Space Solutions provides thorough, independent racking inspections that give you a clear picture of your storage system's condition and exactly what action is needed.

We cover six key locations across the East Midlands and surrounding areas. Select your nearest location below to find out more about our service in your area.

Clear Risk Ratings

You'll know exactly what needs attention

Every item we find is rated using the recognised traffic-light system, in line with SEMA and HSE guidance — so there's no jargon, just a clear priority for each action.

Green

Within SEMA limits

Damage falls within SEMA limits. Record it and review it at the next inspection — Green does not mean the damage should be ignored.

Amber Risk

Repair within 4 weeks

Damage requiring remedial work within 4 weeks. Immediate offloading is not required, but once affected pallet locations are emptied they must not be refilled until repairs are completed. If not repaired within 4 weeks, the item becomes Red Risk.

Red Risk

Immediate action

High levels of damage requiring the affected area to be immediately offloaded and isolated from use until repairs are completed.

Why it matters

Why regular racking inspections matter

Racking systems are exposed to daily forklift movements, loading pressures and accidental impacts. Without regular inspections, minor issues can develop into serious safety concerns. Regular inspections help you:

  • ✓Maintain a safe working environment
  • ✓Identify damaged components before they become critical
  • ✓Support compliance with HSE guidance and industry best practice
  • ✓Protect stock, equipment and personnel
  • ✓Reduce the risk of costly downtime
  • ✓Extend the life of your storage equipment
