Racking Experts

Racking Experts, racking and shelving specialists in Blackburn

Racking Experts is a company based in Blackburn (United Kingdom) dedicated to the supply and installation of industrial storage systems. Its catalogue covers both new and used equipment, and includes pallet racking, longspan shelving, mezzanine solutions and a range of warehouse accessories and protection. The company presents itself as a racking and shelving specialist and states that it has more than 25 years of experience in the sector.

Storage products

The company's offering is organised into several product families. These include pallet racking, drive-in racking, carpet roll racking, A-frame vertical racking, tyre racking, mobile packing racking and longspan shelving. It also sells workbenches, mezzanine products and various accessories. Pallet racking is described as a flexible and efficient system, while drive-in racking is aimed at maximising storage capacity without extending the building's footprint. Carpet racking is offered in depths from 1.5 to 5 metres to support heavy rolls, and longspan shelving is presented as a robust solution for bulky or irregularly shaped items.

Mezzanine solutions

The company has experience in steel structures for the construction of mezzanine floors. According to its approach, making use of the available height of the building allows additional floor space to be gained, and it points out that most local authorities do not charge for using that height. The cost of the floor space gained through building upwards would thus be offset.

Installation, inspections and technical support

In addition to supply, Racking Experts carries out warehouse installations and offers annual racking inspections, as well as protection equipment for structures. The company highlights the importance of load plates and load notices as part of warehouse safety, and provides technical support in this area. It also works with recognised manufacturers to configure customised storage systems that can be combined to meet office, retail and warehousing needs.

Completed projects

The site lists several completed projects. In Manchester, the company carried out the installation of a mezzanine floor supported by pallet racking for a designer fashion brand that was moving to a new warehouse. In Sheffield, it worked alongside Pyramid Carpets on the supply and installation of adjustable pallet racking and 4 to 5 metre carpet roll racking in a new warehouse, with the aim of maximising storage capacity. Another project in Manchester consisted of supplying tyre racking, in order to keep stock off the floor and facilitate access. An installation of adjustable pallet racking with a timber slat decking platform in Blackburn is also documented.
