AisleCop® isn't only for forklift aisle crossings.
The
safety system is also utilized to help control pedestrian traffic flow at warehouse
entry points. These are typically blind spots for individuals leaving an
office, break area, or another part of an industrial facility and entering
an area where forklifts or other industrial traffic is present.
Typically, this involves a single gate since there is not always an aisle to cross. The pedestrian may go along the flow of a forklift aisle, into an in-plant office, to a production area, etc. The gate is there to protect pedestrians in a non-crossing situation.
AisleCop® Warehouse Safety Gate Operation
- Automated entry gates scan the forklift aisle in any defined configuration needed and will open the pedestrian gate only if the area is clear of industrial traffic. If there are forklifts or other traffic present, the gate remains closed. If the area is clear, the gate opens for the pedestrian and closes after a predefined amount of time.
- In a manual setup, this gate serves to slow and focus the pedestrian by forcing her to stop, press a button and wait for the gate to open. A manual entry gate doesn't scan for forklift traffic, but it does have a very visible stoplight, warning lights, and/or audible alarms that a pedestrian is in the area. Once the gate opens, it will stay open for a defined period of time and then close on its own.
In both types of warehouse entry gates, the push button is easily reachable so that entry and exit is possible from either side. Both can be paired with boom arm gates to further enhance the visibility for forklift drivers.

AisleCop® systems are safety tools that help define and control access to forklift aisles. They do not provide 100% protection from industrial traffic accidents. AisleCop® gates do not stop forklifts or other industrial traffic. Other critical factors, such as system maintenance, drivers and pedestrian compliance, enforcement of crossing lanes, and assessment of safe crossings are the responsibility of individuals and companies.
