Warehouse Safety Netting FAQs
Below are just a few of out most frequently asked questions but you can find a lot more useful information and videos within our knowledge hub.
There are different kinds of warehouse netting, each with a specific use. Back-of-rack netting stops items from falling off the back of storage racks. Handrail netting is used on raised walkways to prevent objects from dropping onto people below. Debris netting is for catching smaller items or loose bits that might fall, which is handy in construction or repair areas. Each type of netting helps protect workers, equipment, and stock in different situations.
Our warehouse netting is made from a high-tensile material called polypropylene. This material is chosen for its strength, durability, and ability to withstand the demanding conditions of industrial environments. Polypropylene offers resistance to chemicals, moisture, and abrasion, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. This ensures that the netting can effectively contain falling objects and provide long-lasting safety solutions.
Yes, warehouse rack netting can be customised to fit different safety needs and spaces.
You can choose the size of the netting to fit various shelf sizes, and select the colour to match safety rules or make it easier to see. Other options include different ways to attach the netting, like using carabiner clips or cable ties, and adding reinforced edges for extra strength.
This means the netting can be made to suit the specific needs of each warehouse.
At Elan, we carry blue and black warehouse safety netting. These are commonly used because they are easy to see and look neat. But there are other colour options like red, yellow, green, and white.
Different colours can be used for different purposes, like using red or yellow to show dangerous areas or to alert workers, while green or white might show safe areas or spots needing special attention. Using different colours helps make the workplace safer, easier to see, and more organised.
There are a few ways to install warehouse safety netting, depending on where it is used and what it is needed for.
You can use carabiner clips for easy and quick attachment and removal or cable ties for a more permanent fix.
Brackets can also be used to secure the netting to racks or walls, making it more stable.
The method you choose depends on what you need the netting to do and where it is placed, and we’re always happy to advise you on this. Correct installation is key to ensuring the netting works well and keeps everyone safe.
Yes, you can use cable ties instead of carabiner clips to fix your warehouse netting. Cable ties are a cheap and secure way to attach netting to shelves or other places. However, cable ties are more permanent, so if you need to get behind the netting, you will have to cut the ties and replace them each time. This could take more time and effort, especially in areas where you need regular access. Carabiner clips are better if you need to take the netting down often or move it around.
Yes, if warehouse netting gets damaged, it can often be repaired, especially if the damage is small.
Little tears or holes can be fixed using cable ties, this is perfectly safe as cable ties are stronger than you think! For bigger holes, we can provide netting patches of the adequate size for you to cable tie into place.
However, it’s important to check the damage properly. If the netting’s strength is affected, it might need to be replaced to keep it safe and effective. Regular checks and maintenance are important to spot and fix any damage quickly, preventing possible safety problems.
Yes, you can rent debris netting, which is useful if you only need it for a short time or aren’t sure how long you’ll need it. Renting allows you to get high-quality netting without having to buy it outright, which can save money. It’s a good option for temporary projects, like building work or repairs, where you need to stop debris from falling.
