Description · Racking Protection Barriers
Installing racking protection barriers in high-visibility orange provides your warehouse with immediate defence against forklift collisions. Weighing 9.35 kg, this barrier is engineered for absorbing direct vehicle impacts and shielding critical storage frames from costly structural damage. Featuring a bright finish for maximum hazard perception in traffic aisles, it allows quick floor anchoring with provided fixings without needing specialised tools. Secure long-term operational safety across your Irish facility today.
Industrial protection barriers are a fundamental investment for the safety and efficiency of any warehouse or industrial facility. Designed to absorb and deflect impacts from forklifts and other load-bearing vehicles, these barriers act as an indispensable protective shield to safeguard the integrity of your storage systems. Their presence not only prevents costly structural damage to shelving and other equipment but also minimizes the risk of workplace accidents, protecting personnel and ensuring operational continuity. The installation of industrial protection barriers is a crucial step in ensuring a safe and optimized work environment.
The assembly of these industrial protection barriers is remarkably simple and quick, requiring no specialized tools or qualified technical personnel. Their design allows for rapid and secure floor fixing, using the provided anchors, which facilitates their implementation even in last-minute operations or in high-traffic areas. The high-visibility orange finish is a key feature, as it improves signaling and hazard perception in aisles and circulation zones, acting as an effective deterrent. The durability and resistance of these industrial protection barriers guarantee long-term protection for your equipment.
These industrial protection barriers are the ideal choice for a wide range of spaces, from large distribution centers and logistics warehouses to production workshops and smaller industrial facilities. They integrate perfectly with various storage solutions, reinforcing critical points and delimiting risk zones. Unlike other more specific protections, such as shelf post protectors or orange L-shaped shelf protectors, these barriers offer more extensive coverage and superior resistance to direct impacts. The implementation of industrial protection barriers is, therefore, a smart strategy to maximize the safety and lifespan of your facilities.

Applicable regulations in Ireland · Racking Protection Barriers · Orange
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.
