In many facility maintenance shops, spare glass lites and replacement windows are often leaned against walls or stacked on makeshift wooden pallets. This is not just disorganized—it is an OSHA safety violation waiting to happen. For Facility Managers aiming to improve EHS (Environment, Health, and Safety) scores and reduce breakage, implementing a standardized window storage rack system is the quickest win for your MRO department. |
Storing heavy, fragile items like commercial glass doors or large window units requires certified equipment. When you use ad-hoc methods like wooden A-frames, you risk structural failure over time due to wood rot or loose nails.
The Agrack is built on a reinforced Q235 steel chassis (see base detail below). It offers a predictable, documented safety factor that EHS auditors demand. Unlike wood, the integrated steel forklift channels ensure stable lifting and prevent the base from bowing under heavy loads, making it compliant with strict facility safety standards.
Full-length forklift guides provide a stable, certified lifting point, eliminating the risk of makeshift rigging.
Maintenance teams are often short-staffed. You don't want to pull three technicians off a job just to move a crate of windows.
Our glass storage racks are designed for single-person deployment. As shown in the clear product view below, the rack is a self-contained unit. One technician can manage it without special tools. The open design allows for easy visual inventory checks—you can see exactly what spare glass you have in stock without unstacking or moving crates, preventing over-ordering of expensive custom glass.
A clean, accessible design allows maintenance staff to quickly identify and retrieve parts safely.
In a facility emergency—like a broken storefront window or a damaged freezer door—the spare glass must be in perfect condition.
Improper storage often leads to edge chips or surface scratches that render the spare useless when it's needed most. The Agrack features full-length rubber protection on the base and back supports. This ensures that your critical inventory is isolated from steel and concrete, ready for immediate installation.
Yes. Unlike wooden crates which add fire load to your building, our all-steel racks are non-combustible, helping you maintain fire safety compliance in storage zones.
Absolutely. While optimized for glass, the window storage rack is excellent for storing any large sheet materials, including plywood, drywall, or metal sheets, keeping them vertical and warp-free.
When not in use, the rack collapses to a very compact footprint. You can stack multiple folded units in a corner, occupying less than 10% of the space of deployed racks.
The standard model is designed for forklift use, but we offer a "Mobile Kit" with heavy-duty casters (brakes included) for maintenance shops that need to roll the rack directly to the repair site.
We understand maintenance needs can be urgent. We keep standard sizes in stock for quick dispatch to ensure your facility remains compliant and operational.
