Safety and Protection Solutions for Logan Warehouses
Logan is the county seat of Cache County and the commercial hub of northern Utah's Cache Valley. The area's warehouse and industrial sector supports agricultural processing, food distribution, and manufacturing operations serving the Cache Valley corridor and surrounding communities.
Logan warehouses face real operational pressures — tight margins, growing SKU counts, and rising labor costs. Safety and Protection systems help address all three by maximizing usable cube and reducing the time staff spend locating and moving inventory.
Warehouse safety equipment protects your people, your products, and your racking investment. A single forklift impact on an unprotected upright can damage the column beyond safe use, requiring immediate takedown of the bay and replacement of the upright, a costly and disruptive event that proper protection can prevent. We supply a full range of safety and protection products: upright column protectors, rack end guards, safety netting, bollards, guard rails, pallet rack safety bars, and wire decking. All products meet or exceed ANSI and OSHA requirements. Beyond physical protection, a well-designed safety system communicates hazards clearly to forklift operators and pedestrians. High-visibility yellow column protectors signal the column location in low-light conditions. Safety netting on elevated rack levels prevents product from falling to the floor below. Bollards protect rack end caps, fire sprinkler risers, and other infrastructure from vehicle traffic. Guard rails create visual and physical separation between pedestrian walkways and forklift aisles, a requirement under OSHA 1910.178 for facilities where pedestrians and forklifts share the same floor. Rocky Mountain Warehouse Solutions also provides post-impact racking inspections and engineer-certified damage assessments. When a rack upright is struck, the structural integrity of the entire bay is compromised and the system should not be reloaded until it has been evaluated. Our inspectors assess damage using RMI ANSI MH16.1 criteria and provide written reports with repair or replacement recommendations.
Safety and Protection is especially valuable for Food and beverage in Logan, where companies need dependable systems for Pedestrian separation barriers. Rocky Mountain Warehouse Solutions helps businesses plan, install, and optimize systems that support long-term warehouse performance.
We work with companies across Cache County and nearby service areas to deliver practical, durable solutions built for industrial environments.

Technical Specifications & Buying Guide
Column protectors are the most cost-effective safety investment in any warehouse. Heavy-duty polyethylene column protectors bolt to the floor around the base of the upright and are designed to absorb and redirect forklift impact forces. Standard protectors fit 3-inch and 4-inch column widths and are available in heights from 16 to 42 inches. For extra-high protection zones, steel column guards provide maximum impact resistance at high-traffic row ends and aisle intersections. The cost of a set of column protectors, typically $50–$150 per upright, is a fraction of the cost to replace a damaged column, which can run $400–$800 plus downtime.
Rack end guards (also called row end protectors) are steel or heavy-duty plastic assemblies that wrap around the end frame of a rack row, providing impact protection for the entire face of the upright. They are most important at row ends adjacent to forklift travel aisles, where the upright is most exposed to impact. End guards also serve as visual aisle markers, helping operators identify the end of each row during travel.
Safety netting and back-stops are required on elevated rack levels in many facilities to prevent product from falling or being pushed off the back of the rack. OSHA 1910.176 and local fire marshal requirements may specify particular netting specifications depending on your building type and occupancy. We supply wire mesh safety panels, polypropylene safety nets, and solid steel back-stop bars in configurations to match your rack depth and beam spacing. Load beam safety clips (sometimes called beam locks or safety pins) are a small but critical accessory. They prevent beams from accidentally dislodging from uprights during loading operations and are recommended by the RMI for all installations.
Frequently Asked Questions About Safety and Protection in Logan
What should I do if a rack upright is damaged by a forklift?
Take the damaged bay out of service immediately. Remove all product and cordon off the area. Do not attempt to repair it with non-OEM parts or continue using it. Contact us for a professional inspection. A qualified engineer will assess the damage against RMI ANSI MH16.1 criteria and provide a written repair or replacement recommendation.

Are column protectors effective against forklift impact?
Yes. Heavy-duty column protectors absorb and redirect forklift impacts, protecting the upright beneath. They are a low-cost investment compared to upright replacement. A column protector costs $50–$150, while an upright replacement plus installation can cost $500–$1,000 or more. We recommend them on all row ends and high-traffic aisle locations.

Are rack safety clips (beam locks) required?
The RMI recommends safety clips for all installations, and many local jurisdictions and insurance carriers require them. They prevent step beams from being accidentally dislodged from uprights during loading, a failure mode that can cause partial or full bay collapse. They are inexpensive and easy to install.

What is OSHA's requirement for pedestrian and forklift separation?
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.178 requires that pedestrian areas be clearly marked and that adequate separation exist between pedestrian walkways and forklift traffic areas. This can be accomplished with painted floor markings, guardrails, bollards, or physical barriers. We help facilities design compliant separation systems as part of our safety product installations.

How often should rack safety inspections be performed?
The RMI and ANSI MH16.1 recommend a formal rack inspection annually, with informal visual checks conducted more frequently by trained personnel. After any known or suspected forklift impact, the affected bays should be inspected and taken out of service until evaluated. We offer professional inspection services with written reports and engineer-certified assessments.
