Dismantling of racks

Racks are a convenient option for storing various items, goods and tools. They are used both in warehouses and in garages and sheds. With their help, you can organize neat storage of a wide variety of things.

Dismantling of racks

Sometimes it is necessary to dismantle racks for the purpose of transporting and installing them in a new location, or to perform some operations at the place of their operation, or to replace them with new structures.

The task of dismantling the racks must be taken seriously, especially if they will later be installed in a new location. Even if they are disposed of, they must be carefully disassembled so as not to damage anything in the room.

Organization of work

Before dismantling, you need to plan your actions and prepare the necessary tools. It is this approach to completing assigned tasks that will allow you to complete everything very quickly and accurately, without unpleasant surprises.

You can organize dismantling actions as follows:

1. To begin with, everything that could interfere with dismantling must be removed from the room where the structures are installed. Clear the approaches to the racks and to the exit from the room.
2. Free structures from shelves that can be easily dismantled.
3. Remove all fasteners and connecting elements. Carefully pack and remove the removed parts.
4. Now you can start disassembling the shelving frames. All parts should also be carefully packed and removed from the premises.
5. If there are elements. Those that will not be useful to you in the future should be disposed of.

REFERENCE. When dismantling built-in structures, even if you think through everything very carefully and prepare in advance, you are unlikely to be able to avoid deformation of some elements. This factor can complicate the work.

Ensuring safety when performing work

The issue of safety is very acute when performing work of this type. After all, the risk of injury and quite serious injury is very high. To minimize this risk, it is very important to carry out dismantling in accordance with safety regulations.

If the racks collapse, this may entail both material costs and the health of the people who performed the work. It is important to establish proper control over the dismantling process.

1. There are a number of certain requirements that apply to installation and dismantling work. It is necessary to provide them. It is important to properly organize the work site and use devices that will help ensure the protection of working people.
2. When performing mechanization of work, use only safe and efficient devices. Only certified and in good working order electric tools may be used for work.
3. It is necessary to place structures correctly. Each subsequent tier can be disassembled only when the previous one has already been completely disassembled. There should be no unauthorized people under the rack dismantling area. Only the one who does the work.

IMPORTANT.If we are talking about tall structures, it is necessary to use mounting belts to disassemble them, because the actions are equivalent to steeplejacking.

When working with tall structures, lifting mechanisms must be used to disassemble them. It is very important to follow established safety regulations. Whoever is involved in dismantling, these people must be familiar with the safety regulations.
