Racking Safety, Made Simple

Get clear answers to your most common questions about AS 4084:2023, racking inspections, and compliance in Auckland.

Why are racking inspections needed?

Regular inspections identify damage, wear, or non-compliance in your racking systems.

This helps you avoid costly incidents, maintain safety, and meet legal obligations within your warehouse.

What is AS 4084:2023?

AS 4084:2023 is the latest Australian and New Zealand standard for steel storage racking.

It has superseded the AS 4084:2012 standard and sets out requirements for safe design, installation, and inspection to help prevent workplace accidents and ensure compliance.

How often should racks be inspected?

AS4084:2023 requires a two-tiered inspection regime.

Informal inspections should be conducted regularly by your staff to check for visible damage.

Formal inspections are mandatory at least every 12 months. This annual audit must be performed by an external competent person to ensure structural integrity and safety compliance.

What are 'as built' drawings?

‘As built’ drawings are detailed plans showing your racking system exactly as installed.

They are essential for compliance, future modifications, and safety audits.
