Repairing Impact-Damaged Racking in Durham | Rackstor UK Ltd

County Durham's shift from coal mining to modern logistics has brought a new generation of racking to the region — and the repair demands that come with it.

Putting Damaged Durham Racking Back Into Service

Racking damage is measured, not guessed at. Across Durham we gauge frontal and lateral deflection on uprights, check bracing and beam deflection against SEMA limits, and replace whatever falls outside tolerance with manufacturer-matched components — never straightened steel.
