Racking Column Protector

The Racking Column Protector delivers unbeatable defence for warehouse uprights, mezzanine posts and partition walls, ensuring your facility stays running without costly interruptions. From busy loading bays to narrow aisles, this protector guards vulnerable columns against daily impacts, helping you maintain a safe, efficient workspace.

By investing in a rack protector that stands up to heavy-duty use, you reduce the risk of damaged uprights and structural weakening, safeguarding both equipment and personnel. With simple installation and minimal upkeep, it’s a practical solution that pays for itself by preventing expensive repairs and downtime.

A vibrant powder-coated finish in safety yellow not only draws attention to each protected column but also resists rust, chips and general wear in demanding warehouse environments. This bright coating ensures that drivers and operators can quickly spot vulnerable areas, reducing the chance of accidental collisions during busy shifts.

Beyond its eye-catching appearance, the powder coat guards against corrosion, so the protector maintains its integrity even when exposed to moisture or fluctuating temperatures. By combining durability with visibility, this finish makes the product both practical and low-maintenance—perfect for high-traffic facilities where safety is paramount.

Equipped with four pre-drilled anchor points and supplied bolts, the protector achieves a rock-solid, wobble-free fit, eliminating concerns over shifting under impact. Once installed, it stays firmly in place, providing consistent protection rather than jostling loose over time and leaving uprights exposed.

This secure installation method also simplifies maintenance, as you can inspect and re-tighten bolts during routine checks without dismantling the entire guard. By keeping the protector anchored and stable, you ensure uninterrupted defence for your racking system, maintaining a safe work environment with minimal fuss. 

With its 10 mm thick base plate, impact forces are distributed evenly across the floor without obstructing forklift tines or pallet jacks. This slim design allows smooth passage of material-handling equipment over the protector’s base, minimising operational hiccups.

By preventing forklift wheels from catching on protruding plates, it maintains a seamless workflow in busy aisles and loading zones. The low-profile foundation also contributes to the rack protector’s stability, ensuring it remains secure under the heaviest impacts. 

The ergonomic internal cavity measures 145 (W) × 95 (D) mm, providing a tight, shift-free embrace around most standard uprights. This precision fit prevents the protector from moving sideways during impact, maintaining consistent defence when it’s needed most.

By eliminating gaps or wobble, it reduces wear on both the upright and the protector itself, prolonging service life. Securely cradling each column, this design ensures the rack protector stays in place, even under repeated collisions.
