There are big consequences when equipment or vehicles collide with structures in your warehouse. However, you have the power to safeguard your employees, machinery, and property. In addition, you can stop yourself from having to pay huge bills and avoid interruptions. All of this comes from installing column protectors on your warehouse's vertical structures. The installation can even help to improve productivity. At the same time, not having protection can harm it.

Complications

One of the most important considerations here is the complications you will face. This is if a vehicle runs into an insecure vertical structure.

To begin with, if there is a full force collision, it can bring the whole frame down. Another possibility would be damage to stock and pallets. This places the driver in danger. At the same time, it endangers the other staff members you have working in the area.

When there is substantial contact between a supporting structure and machinery, there could be visible harm to a pillar or column. This can be very costly to repair.

Expensive precautions

As a precautionary step, you may need to shut down operations temporarily. This includes sending staff home. In the meantime, you will have to get an engineer in to do extensive checks. For any repairs, you will need to hire a construction crew. The costs here can surpass a day's loss of work.

If there is considerable damage, you might have to keep the staff away for a few days. You will need to ensure everything is 100% safe before activity can return. This can represent a huge loss of productivity.

On the other hand, you could have a relatively undamaged structure, but a damaged vehicle. While it may not result in the closure of the warehouse, the costs of replacing or repairing a forklift or truck can also be huge. To stop this and the problems above, you need suitable column protectors.
