Rack Sentry® protects rack uprights by absorbing the impact from forklifts and pallet loads. Rack Sentry's bright yellow color with contrasting black straps increases the visibility of the rack uprights, decreasing the number of collisions. Rack Sentry® is installed directly to the pallet rack upright column easily without using tools and without drilling into the floor. Rack Sentry® is available in sizes to fit most sizes of racks, with widths of 75mm, 80mm, 90mm, 100mm and 120mm.

Rack Sentry® rack protectors attach to your rack uprights, protecting them from the abuse from collisions with your forklifts. Constructed of a flexible EVA material, Rack Sentry gives your racks a highly visible layer of protection that's easily installed without tools. Rack Sentry® is available in a number of sizes to fit most uprights. Additionally, there are models available for low beam installations and for end racks.

Rack Sentry® protects racks from forklift collisions

Rack Sentry® is ideal for intermediate rack uprights where high visibility and a flexible layer of protection is most needed. The product is designed to absorb impact by flexing, returning to shape to work again. We have tested Rack Sentry® to a limit of 3mph (5km/h) using a 5,000 lb. (capacity) forklift without visible damage to the rack upright, forklift, or product.

Rack Sentry® installs directly to the rack upright, eliminating the need to drill into the floor at the rack upright. In use, Rack Sentry® puts no stress on the floor.

Rack Sentry® exceeds the European FEM standard of 400 N.m protection recommended for rack uprights.
