Warehouse Safety & Traffic Risk Assessments
Evaluate forklift traffic patterns, pedestrian zones, rack protection needs, and high-impact risk areas — with actionable barrier and marking recommendations.
Specialized Protection
Warehouse Safety Assessments
Warehouse safety incidents are among the most costly workplace accidents in Canada — forklift collisions with workers, rack collapses from vehicle impact, and pedestrian-vehicle conflicts in loading areas account for thousands of injuries and millions in damage annually. Most of these incidents are preventable with proper barrier placement and traffic management.

What We Offer
What We Evaluate
Titan Barriers conducts warehouse safety assessments for distribution centres, manufacturing plants, and logistics facilities across Edmonton, Red Deer, Calgary, and Lethbridge, and Alberta. We evaluate forklift traffic patterns, pedestrian walkway adequacy, rack protection needs, column vulnerability, and loading dock hazards — then provide specific barrier and floor marking recommendations for each identified risk.
Forklift Traffic Analysis
Map forklift routes, turning areas, and speed patterns to identify collision risk points and traffic management gaps.
Pedestrian Zone Evaluation
Assess pedestrian walkway visibility, separation from forklift zones, and crossing point protection.
Rack Impact Assessment
Evaluate racking system vulnerability to forklift impact — identifying columns and frames that need bollard or guard rail protection.
Column Protection Review
Identify structural columns exposed to vehicle impact and recommend bollard protection to prevent structural damage.
Loading Dock Hazards
Evaluate loading dock traffic flow, pedestrian safety, and vehicle impact risks at dock approaches.
Floor Marking Audit
Review existing floor markings for visibility, compliance, and coverage gaps — recommending updates per OHS standards.
"The assessment found 14 unprotected rack columns in our high-traffic aisle. We'd had three impacts that year already — the bollard recommendation paid for itself before the installation was even complete."
— Warehouse Manager, Edmonton
Everything's Handled
Built by Safety Installers — Not Consultants
Our warehouse assessments are conducted by the same crews that install barriers, bollards, and floor markings — so recommendations are practical, buildable, and accurately priced. We don't recommend theoretical solutions that can't be implemented in your specific facility.
Every identified risk includes a specific solution, estimated cost, and implementation timeline. You receive a prioritized action plan that addresses the highest-risk items first while fitting within your maintenance and capital budgets.
We provide OHS-referenced documentation for your safety compliance files — demonstrating proactive hazard identification and mitigation that supports your workplace safety program and WCB standing.

Why It Matters
Why Warehouse Assessments Prevent Costly Incidents
A single forklift-into-rack incident can cost $50,000–$200,000+ in combined damage — racking replacement, inventory loss, downtime, WCB claims, and potential regulatory fines if the lack of protection is deemed a safety violation. A comprehensive assessment identifying all vulnerable points costs a fraction of a single incident.
Incident Prevention
Identify and protect vulnerable rack columns, pedestrian zones, and equipment before impacts occur.
OHS Compliance
Documented hazard identification that supports your workplace safety program.
Cost Avoidance
Assessment cost is a fraction of a single forklift incident — highest-ROI safety investment.
Built to Last
Systematic Assessment Process
Our warehouse assessments follow a zone-by-zone methodology — evaluating each section of your facility against a comprehensive safety checklist that covers forklift traffic, pedestrian zones, racking protection, column vulnerability, and equipment safety.
We observe actual traffic patterns during peak operations to identify risks that only manifest under real working conditions — congestion points, blind corners, and speed issues that aren't apparent on facility drawings.
Results are documented with annotated facility photographs and floor plan markups showing exactly where barriers, bollards, and markings should be placed. This visual format makes it easy for operations managers to understand and implement recommendations.
"The photo documentation was incredibly useful — we could show ownership exactly where the risks were and why the barrier investment was justified. Approval was immediate."
— Safety Coordinator, Edmonton
