Warehouse Storage & Safety Solutions
At Facilities Management Solutions (FMS), we understand that efficient storage, safety, and space optimisation are vital for the smooth operation of any warehouse or industrial environment. That’s why we offer a comprehensive range of storage infrastructure and safety inspection services tailored to meet the demands of modern logistics and warehouse operations.
Warehouse Racking Systems
Modern operations often depend on flexible, space-efficient racking systems designed to maximise storage and improve logistical workflows. A variety of systems are available to suit different site layouts, stock types, and access requirements. Common configurations include:
- Adjustable Pallet Racking – Suitable for a wide range of palletised goods, allowing straightforward customisation and reconfiguration as inventory changes.
- Drive-In and Drive-Through Racking – Enables high-density storage by reducing the number of access aisles required, particularly effective for large volumes of similar stock.
- Cantilever Racking – Designed for items such as pipes, timber, and other long or bulky materials, with open fronts for easy access.
- Push-Back and Pallet Live Systems – Ideal where efficient stock rotation is a priority, helping to improve pick times and optimise product flow.
All systems are installed in line with current UK safety regulations and can be tailored to meet site-specific operational needs.
Mezzanine Floors
Where additional space is required within an existing facility, a mezzanine floor may provide an effective and economical alternative to relocation or extension. These intermediate floors can support a range of functions including:
- Storage or archive areas
- Office and administrative zones
- Light manufacturing or packing spaces
Designs can incorporate staircases, safety barriers, loading gates and fire protection as required, and are developed in accordance with relevant UK building regulations and structural requirements. Mezzanine installations are subject to a full site assessment to determine suitability and compliance.
Racking Safety Inspections
The integrity of racking structures is essential to both operational continuity and workplace safety. Regular inspections carried out by trained professionals in accordance with SEMA (Storage Equipment Manufacturers’ Association) guidelines can help ensure continued compliance and risk mitigation.
Typical inspection services include:
- Condition assessments and identification of visible damage
- Classification of any defects and appropriate remedial recommendations
- Structured reporting to support internal health and safety records
- Advice on inspection frequency based on usage and load factors
These inspections form an important part of routine warehouse safety management and can be scheduled as part of a planned maintenance programme.
In addition, we can also carry out any necessary remedial works required following the SEMA inspection. Whether it’s replacing damaged components, adjusting racking for compliance, or addressing identified safety issues, our experienced team will ensure all works are completed to the highest standard and in full accordance with UK regulations.
Integrated Facilities Management Approach
These solutions can be incorporated into a wider facilities management programme, supporting clients with operational efficiency, workplace safety, and long-term asset performance. FMS can coordinate design, installation and ongoing compliance as part of a unified service offering.
