"Safety gates are a critical part of protecting workers at open mezzanine edges. We have economical and intuitive designs that satisfy ANSI, OSHA and IBC requirements and help ensure that workers safely load and unload materials at the mezzanine level. Contact us to get started finding the right gate for your operation!"
All gate styles help you safely move pallets, skids, containers and other loads on and off your mezzanine. Safety gates work with almost any mezzanine, including new platforms or a mezzanine already installed in your facility. They are easy to install and use, providing a system where it is nearly impossible for a worker to enter the gate when a pallet is being loaded or unloaded.
Pivot safety gates:
Simply lift guard rail to enter loading platform, place load on platform, and lower guard rail after exiting platform; opposite side is now open for forklift to pick up load
Reduces accidental falls when loading and unloading to mezzanines, elevated levels and raised platforms
Protects workers below platform by preventing objects from falling off edges - gate on open edge is always closed when accessed from platform
Few moving parts for low maintenance requirements
Overhead roller safety gates:
When outer gate is open, inner gate is closed - and vice-versa, protecting workers as pallets are being loaded or unloaded by forklifts or stackers
Make your mezzanine safer during loading & unloading operations
Can be installed into your existing guardrail structure with minor modifications
Easy installation and low maintenance - perfect for parts rooms, warehouses, distribution centers
Tri-side safety gates:
When edge gate is open, inside floor level gate closes to create a three-sided enclosure around the load zone and prevents workers from approaching the mezzanine edge
Once load has been placed or moved away, the inside gate can be lifted to open access to the load zone
As the inside gate opens, the edge gate lowers to close off the open edge
This gate is perfect when you must have a loading zone in a walkway or traffic pattern
Clearly demarcates loading zone and helps prevent workers from entering loading zone while the edge gate is open
Open top safety gates:
Dual gate system has no overhead structure, so it won't interfere with use of lifting equipment— whether that be forklifts, AGVs, or overhead cranes
Also good for tall pallet loads and is available in 90 degree configurations upon request
Counterbalance mechanism ensures that when one gate is lifted, the other gate drops to close off the opposite end of the load zone
Ergonomic design for ease of use
Individually actuated spring-loaded gates:
Simply push pallet load forward with forklift once at mezzanine height and spring loaded bars close around sides of load, preventing access to mezzanine edge
Individually actuated bars move to close completely as pallet is unloaded, keeping workers away from dangerous falls
Once pallet is empty or moved away from edge, bars close completely, making a safe barrier
Simple and economical solution
Solid door gates:
A forklift simply pushes a pallet through the doors; they self-close once the area is clear
These models are useful in areas with limited overhead space
Integrated toeboard for applications that require protection from falling tools and objects
