Pallet Rack Upright Protectors & Guards

RackUSA's protectors are constructed from welded steel wire, steel solid surfaces, or composite surfaces, depending on the product type. These durable materials are selected to absorb repeated impacts, resist deformation, and maintain structural integrity in high-traffic forklift zones without adding excessive weight to the racking frame.

Yes, RackUSA's column, corner, and end row protectors are designed to be compatible with most standard racking systems and can be adapted for custom installations. Our team assesses your existing rack dimensions and layout to recommend the correct protector style and mounting configuration for a secure, effective fit.

RackUSA offers column protectors, corner protectors, and end row protectors available in single and double horizontal bar configurations. Each type is engineered for specific exposure points, such as aisle ends, corners, and high-traffic column faces, giving facilities flexible options to address their unique impact risk areas.

Many of RackUSA's protective accessories, such as wire mesh decking and open-grid designs, are built to support fire sprinkler system compliance by maintaining proper airflow and water distribution. It's important to select protector styles that don't obstruct sprinkler coverage; our team can advise on compliant configurations for your facility.

Installation typically involves bolting or securing the protector directly to the base of the rack upright or floor-mounting it around the column footprint. Options with flanged or hat-style crossbars simplify installation without specialized tools. For larger projects, RackUSA also provides facility assessments and installation guidance to ensure proper placement.
