THTT Rack End Protector for Double-Sided Pallet Racking

THTT Rack End Protector for Double-Sided Pallet Racking

One hard touch with a fork, a pallet corner, or a truck body can push an upright out of line, damage stored goods, and leave you with an avoidable safety risk. In warehouses where forklifts and pallet trucks move all day, the end of an aisle is one of the first places that gets tested. The THTT rack end protector is designed for double-sided pallet racking, where the end frame is exposed to vehicle traffic from both sides.

Why rack end protection matters in double-sided aisles

On a double-sided (double-row) rack run, traffic often approaches the end from two directions. Drivers turn into a cross-aisle, reverse out with a load, or reposition to pick the next pallet. Those manoeuvres happen close to the uprights, and it only takes one misjudged turn for forks or a pallet to clip the end frame. Over time, repeated knocks can lead to misalignment and unnecessary repair work.

A dedicated pallet racking end protector is a simple way to control that risk. By putting a strong barrier right in front of the end frame, you reduce the chance of direct contact with the uprights. It supports safer working conditions, helps protect the racking structure, and can lower downtime caused by rack damage.

Full-width end frame protection

This model covers the end of the rack run across a full width of 2460 mm. The 400 mm high steel face is positioned to intercept low impacts such as forks, pallet truck arms, and the front ends of warehouse vehicles. Instead of allowing contact with the uprights, the barrier takes the hit first and helps direct the impact force down into the floor through its fixing points.

High-visibility yellow that drivers notice early

In a busy facility, visibility is a safety feature. The THTT rack end protector is finished in yellow RAL 1004, a colour commonly used for hazard marking in industrial environments. The bright finish helps the barrier stand out against concrete floors and steel racking, even when the aisle is dim or the operator is focused on a load.

Steel construction for demanding warehouse conditions

The protector is made from steel and hot-dip galvanised for corrosion resistance. That matters in warehouses where cleaning routines, moisture, and everyday wear can quickly show on unprotected surfaces. Over the galvanising, the barrier is powder coated to achieve the RAL 1004 finish. The result is a robust rack end guard suited for long-term indoor industrial use.

Floor-mounted installation with wedge anchors

The THTT rack end barrier is fixed directly to the floor using wedge anchors. A floor-mounted design is a solid choice for racking ends because the concrete slab can carry and disperse impact forces better than the rack structure alone. In practical terms, anchoring the protector to the floor helps keep it stable where it needs to be: right in the line of travel.

Tested to SFS-EN requirements

The THTT protector is tested according to SFS-EN standards, supporting its suitability for demanding industrial use. For warehouse managers and safety-focused buyers, that testing provides reassurance that the product is intended for real logistics environments rather than light-duty applications.
