High Piled Storage Permits

High Piled Storage Permits

HIGH PILED STORAGE PERMITS

Change is inevitable in a warehouse, so when protecting a high-hazard space such as a warehouse, distribution center, or industrial facility, the building’s active fire protection systems must be designed to address the specific commodities stored in the facility. 

Likewise, when you plan to store or stack your products above 12 feet in an area that exceeds 500 sq. ft., it is considered High Piled Storage, and a permit will be necessary. 

Conjointly, the question you may be asking yourself is? Do I need a HIGH PILED STORAGE PERMIT for my warehouse? The answer is, “it depends” on what you are storing in your warehouse, and if you fall under the parameters stated above, “storing above 12 feet in an area that exceeds 500 square feet”.
