Pre-Installation Walk-thru
When planning your layout try to keep the following things in mind and look for problem areas that need
to be addressed with the customer.
Í Plan areas to go through in complete sets of furniture workstations
Í Are there a lot of ling cabinets and are they gang bolted.
■ If they are gang bolted now they are full and can be nearly impossible to move or perform a
lift on.
Í Are there areas that will need extra time for the customer to get ready?
■ Avalanche areas (stacks of lose paper and books piled on furniture that will be moved and
could potentially end up on the oor)
Í Bookshelves
■ Poor quality bookshelves can fall apart or when moved need to be down loaded or emptied.
■ Some companies have gang bolted bookshelves that will require more advance time to deal
with.
Í Libraries
■ Most library shelves do not like to be lifted or moved they tend to be very top heavy
■ There is special equipment available for moving and/or lifting library shelving.
Í Utility shelves
■ These are the metal shelves that have shelves that are held in place by gravity hooks - these
must be down loaded.
Í Copiers
■ Small copier are usually not too bad unless they have a sorter attached then they can be
tricky as you have to be careful not to dislodge or misalign it when moving it around.
■ Large and expensive copies need to be moved by qualied personal as if you move it and
something goes wrong it could void the manufactures warranty. Most companies have
service contracts on this type of equipment.
