Turnkey Racking Dismantling, Modification & Precision Reinstallation
Relocating industrial warehouse racking systems involves complex structural considerations far beyond standard logistics. When moving high-bay selective pallet racks, drive-in systems, or multi-tier mezzanines between facilities in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, or the broader GCC region, engineering accuracy is essential to preserve system load ratings and operational safety.
ILS Middle East delivers comprehensive end-to-end relocation solutions. From initial structural integrity audits and phased dismantling to heavy freight logistics, laser-guided reassembly, anchor tension verification, and FEM / EN 15512 safety sign-off, our teams manage your operational move with minimal supply chain downtime.
End-to-End Execution Protocol
Our engineered procedure ensures that each beam, frame, and safety element is assessed, cataloged, and reinstated strictly in compliance with international racking standards:
Pre-Move Structural Audit
Comprehensive inspection of upright verticality, beam deflection, and footplates to identify fatigue or damage before dismantling begins.
Controlled Dismantling & Bundling
Systematic unbolting, safety pin retrieval, barcode asset tagging, and protective steel strapping to safeguard galvanized and powder-coated surfaces.
Laser Leveling & Anchoring
High-precision optical laser alignment at the destination slab, including heavy-duty chemical or mechanical floor anchoring and precision steel shimming.
Statutory Certification
Re-calculation of working load limits (WLL), placement of load notification signage, and provision of certified sign-off documentation.
Storage Systems Handled & Reconfigured
Our crews possess specialized rigging gear, scissor lifts, and torque equipment tailored for all primary industrial racking configurations:
- Heavy-Duty Selective Pallet Racking & VNA (Very Narrow Aisle) Systems
- High-Density Drive-In, Drive-Through, and Double Deep Pallet Racking
- Cantilever Racking for Timber, Extrusions, Steel Bars, and Long Loads
- Structural Steel Mezzanines & Multi-Tier Rack-Supported Platforms
- Medium Duty Longspan, Boltless & Slotted Angle Industrial Shelving
Technical Relocation & Compliance Standards
| Engineering Phase | Technical Standard / Specification | Quality Assurance Deliverable |
|---|---|---|
| Slab & Anchor Assessment | EN 1992-4 Concrete Fastening Design | Anchor torque & pull-out verification report |
| Alignment & Verticality | EN 15635 Tolerances / FEM 10.2.02 | Laser survey verifying plumbness within 1:350 limits |
| Damaged Part Replacement | S275 / S350 Structural Grade Steel | Replacement of buckled bracing and impact-damaged uprights |
| Load Rating Verification | EN 15512 Racking Design Protocol | Official statutory Safe Working Load (SWL) bay signage |
Layout Optimization & Storage Reconfiguration
Relocating to a new premises often presents an opportunity to optimize your operational layout. Our in-house CAD design specialists adapt existing hardware to new column grids, clear ceiling heights, and material handling systems, adjusting beam heights to accommodate taller pallets or converting selective layouts into drive-in or double-deep systems to boost volumetric storage density.
