This interconnected mezzanine safety gate keeps workers safely away from open mezzanine edges during load and off-load operations. When the mezzanine access gate is open, the edge gate is closed, allowing safe materials movement at the loading zone where workers can't fall off the platform. Once workers have moved out of the loading zone, the mezzanine access gate may be lowered, raising the edge gate for lift equipment access. This model is double pallet width.
The interconnect system uses chain and sprockets to create a counterbalanced system which requires very little effort to start the gates moving. As one gate raises, the opposing gate lowers, keeping access to open mezzanine edges closed off.
Satisfies ANSI MH28.3-2009 6.4.3 requirements for dual gate system.
