Description · Metal Pallet Racking 1000 kg

This 255 cm high metal pallet racking provides Irish facilities with 1000 kg capacity per beam level across a 184 cm clear span. Equipped with 5 beam levels plus floor space, this structure holds up to 12 euro pallets per bay to maximise vertical density. The 123.81 kg kit includes 2 blue RAL 5010 upright frames at 100 cm depth and 10 orange RAL 2002 beams, each secured with a safety pin on its connector. Designed for total load capacities reaching 5000 kg on beams, each unit delivers reliable long-term performance.

Installing this metal pallet racking standard setup maximises vertical density by offering 5 beam levels alongside the concrete floor, establishing 6 total loading heights per bay. Each elevated level fits 2 Euro pallets measuring 800x1200 mm or 1 American pallet measuring 1000x1200 mm. Including floor storage, this unit accommodates up to 12 Euro pallets or 6 American pallets in a single run. Facilities seeking intensive vertical pallet placement within moderate height clearance benefit directly from this detailed configuration.

Engineered with a total height of 255 cm, a frame depth of 100 cm, and a clear entry width of 184 cm, this robust metal pallet racking framework supports high-density storage demanding precision. Each pair of 100x45 mm horizontal load beams handles a uniformly distributed load of 1000 kg, yielding a total framework load capacity of 5000 kg across the upper beam levels. Ground floor capacity depends entirely on facility floor resilience. Designed to fit 2 Euro pallets or 1 American pallet per level, this structure maintains absolute stability under continuous operational weight.

Delivered as a complete structural package weighing 123.81 kg, this metal pallet racking unit includes 2 upright frames featuring 90x60 mm uprights, 6 diagonal bracing bars, and 4 horizontal bracing bars secured with M10 bolts and nuts. Base plates measuring 120x120 mm anchor directly to concrete floors using M10x70 expansion anchors. The 10 beams (1840 mm entry) hook into upright slots via end connectors, secured instantly with 22 safety pins. Assembly requires no specialised tools, ensuring a rigid, boltless beam profile built for immediate industrial duty.

Finished in RAL 5010 blue for upright frames and high-visibility RAL 2002 orange for load beams, this durable metal pallet racking configuration fits seamlessly into commercial operations. Customisation options include steel upright protectors and floor-mounted protection barriers available in RAL 2004 orange or RAL 1023 yellow to prevent impact damage from forklift traffic. To convert beam levels into picking locations, compatible 1800 mm shelf inserts fit onto the levels. Modular expansion allows connecting add-on units that share an upright frame.

Selecting this 5-level setup provides an ideal arrangement for active logistics hubs, industrial storehouses, and engineering workshops requiring organised pallet management within standard building clearance. Combining a compact 255 cm height with 5 beam levels makes this metal pallet racking unit particularly suitable for maximising pallet locations where overhead space is restricted. Facilities store bulk materials efficiently, maintaining complete stock visibility, straightforward forklift accessibility, and structured inventory handling across every single level throughout daily industrial operations.

Frequently asked questions · Metal Pallet Racking 1000 kg

What structural dimensions does this metal pallet racking offer?
This structure stands 255 cm high and 100 cm deep, with 2 upright frames featuring 90x60 mm uprights. It includes 5 beam levels with a span of 184 cm, using 100x45 mm profile beams. The entire unit has a net weight of 123.81 kg.
How many pallets can be stored in this metal pallet racking?
Each level fits 2 Euro pallets (800x1200 mm) or 1 American pallet (1000x1200 mm). Across 5 beam levels plus ground space, there are 6 loading heights in total, accommodating up to 12 Euro pallets or 6 American pallets per bay.
What load capacity is supported by this metal pallet racking?
Each pair of beams handles 1000 kg of uniformly distributed weight. With 5 beam levels in the bay, the total beam capacity reaches 5000 kg. Floor-level pallet capacity is dictated strictly by the strength of your concrete floor rather than the steel frame.
What components are supplied in the standard package?
The kit contains 4 uprights 2550 mm, 6 diagonal bracing bars 1128x40x30x1.5 mm, 4 horizontal bracing bars 948x40x30x1.5 mm, 4 base plates 120x120x3 mm, 10 beams 1840 mm, 14 bracing bolts M10x75, 22 nuts M10, 9 base plate bolts M10x20, 9 floor anchors M10x70, and 22 safety pins.
How are the structural frames assembled and anchored?
Each upright frame is built by joining 2 uprights with diagonal bracing bars and horizontal bracing bars using M10x75 bolts. Steel base plates measuring 120x120 mm attach to the foot of each upright, which are then secured into the concrete floor using M10x70 floor expansion anchor bolts.
Which additional protection components and accessories can be added?
You can equip the bay with upright protectors or protection barriers finished in RAL 2004 orange or RAL 1023 yellow for safety. Furthermore, an 1800 mm shelf deck can transform any beam level into a picking shelf, or extra extension bays can be linked directly using shared upright frames.
Metal Pallet Racking 1000 kg · 5 Levels · 255x184x100 cm · 2 pallets: Mandatory floor anchoring: each rack upright is fixed to concrete with two M10x70 expansion anchors (four per rack); the anchor kit is sold separately. The racks are screwed together (uprights, bracing, and base plates with M10 hardware) and the beams hook into the upright slots and are secured with their safety pin. The indicated load is per level, for static uniformly distributed load and with the structure correctly assembled, leveled, and anchored.

Pallet racking and forklift operation

In Ireland, pallet racking in a forklift-served warehouse is work equipment under Part 2, Chapter 2 of the General Application Regulations 2007 (S.I. No. 299/2007), implementing the EU Work Equipment Directive (now Directive 2009/104/EC). installed and located correctly (Reg. 28); stabilised by clamping or some other means where necessary for safety (Reg. 33), in practice erected as per the manufacturer’s instructions with the uprights anchored to the floor; maintained throughout its working life (Reg. 31); and inspected by a competent person after installation and re-assembly, then periodically and by special inspection after an accident, a modification or any other exceptional event, with records kept for 5 years (Reg. 30). Traffic routes must be dimensioned for the number of users and the type of undertaking, pedestrians given sufficient safety clearance where trucks share them, and areas where objects could fall clearly indicated and access controlled (Reg. 14). Health and Safety Authority guidance asks for the maximum safe load prominently marked on all racks, racking checked regularly for damage and uprights protected from impact; its Code of Practice on the Safe Use of Industrial Trucks adds that features of the operating area such as racking should be clearly marked and protected against accidental damage. EN 15635, the European standard on the use and maintenance of storage equipment, is a technical reference for organising those checks, not a legal obligation.
